Astra Tech Implant System EV
Astra Tech · 🇸🇪 Sweden
In plain English
Known for stable bone levels in long-term studies. Micro-threads at the neck.
The top of the implant sits level with the jawbone. This gives the dentist the most freedom to shape the gum for a natural look, which is why it is the most common type today.

About the surface
