Introducing Straumann TLX

[@flmichi69]

Great video! I am an OMS Assistant-just started with a new practice and they use the Straumann system which I am not familiar with. Saw your video and it was super informative! Thank you!

Can the Rb abutments be placed on the NT TLX platform? It seems that the screws and the internal connection is identical

[@OBrienDentalLab]

The BLX and TLX lines share the same TorcFit connection, so technically it IS possible to attach an RB abutment to an NT implant. Please keep in mind however, that this would probably not be a valid workflow outlined in the FDA 510(k) for the TLX and BLX components.

Does the implant length include the length of the neck as well?

[@OBrienDentalLab]

No, the neck is not included in the length measurement. The neck adds 3mm for the NT implants and 3.3mm for the RT and WT implants.

What is the deference between BLT and BLX?

[@OBrienDentalLab]

They are completely different implant systems with different body styles and different interface connections. BLT = Bone Level Tapered ("CrossFit" connection). BLX = Bone Level X ("TorcFit" connection)

Do all dentist use these

[@OBrienDentalLab]

No, but Straumann is one of the largest dental implant companies in the world, so their products are used by a lot of dental professionals.
