Introduction<br />
Certain ® Platform Switching Implant<br />
Centralized IAJ:<br />
Moves microgap in from shoulder<br />
and centralizes occlusal forces.<br />
Full Surface Treatment:<br />
Elevates the bone loading<br />
surface for maximum BIC.<br />
Abutment QuickSeat<br />
Connection<br />
Overview<br />
created an implant system that is designed to help<br />
clinicians in the pursuit of crestal bone preservation. The Certain<br />
Platform Switching Implant features integrated platform switching,<br />
which incorporates a coronal bevel design that medializes the<br />
Implant Abutment Junction (IAJ). This feature is available on <strong>3i</strong> T3 ® ,<br />
OSSEOTITE ® and NanoTiteImplants unless otherwise noted.<br />
The surface extends to the top of the collar where the<br />
medialization of the implant begins, creating a continuous<br />
bone loading surface.<br />
The Certain Platform Switching Implant offers the Certain<br />
QuickSeat ® Connection. This provides the clinician with an<br />
audible and tactile click that confirms the abutment is properly<br />
seated. The double hex allows for as many as 12 rotational<br />
positions, which is ideal for angled abutments.<br />

The Certain Platform Switching Implant’s prosthetic table is<br />
appropriately color-coded to ensure proper matching of the<br />
corresponding <strong>BIOMET</strong> <strong>3i</strong> Abutments.<br />
The Certain Platform Switching Implant is offered in two<br />
different implant configurations:<br />
Tapered Certain Platform Switching<br />
Implant<br />
Incorporates all of the design features of a platform switching<br />
implant with a tapered design, which approximates the shape of<br />
a natural tooth root. The innovative thread angle, depth and<br />
pitch produce an anchoring “bite in bone” response for<br />
establishing primary stability.<br />
Parallel Walled Certain Platform<br />
Switching Implant<br />
The straight collar design incorporates platform switching using a<br />
parallel walled implant.<br />
