The biconTM Dental Implant System is very interesting in that the character of its design is quite simple. The biconTM Dental Implant requires only two parts. The biconTM Dental Implant System's concept is based on the locking taper abutment attachment. This abutment is a one and one-half-degree tapered post that relies on friction. With this system, it is not necessary to use screws and torque drivers.
A retrospective study on the biconTM Dental Implant System was conducted using the results from 1,821 implants which were placed in 284 patients from 1986 to 1995. Only 28 of these implants failed during the observation period. From the investigation of this data, the success rate of biconTM Dental Implant System was calculated to be 98.5% over a 10 year period.
