The Implant Book was Wrong, Longer is Not Better
In this video, Dr. Rainier Urdaneta discusses how his practice of implant dentistry changed over the years, once he recognized the merits of using 5.0 and 6.0mm short implants. He was taught to use long implants, but now knows the use of short implants is better. Short implants can avoid the need for bone grafting procedures and their associated morbity, expense, and pain. |

How Bicon Abutments Can Affect Bone Gain
In this video, Dr. Vincent J. Morgan discusses how both the diameter of the hemispherical base and the length of the abutment shaft are factors that can impact bone levels. He goes on to explain how this knowledge was then incorporated into Bicon’s Universal Abutment System. |

The History of The Bicon Design
The Bicon System has its origins dating back to 1968. Initial research was conducted at Battelle Memorial Institute in Columbus, Ohio by Thomas Driskell. The original implant design of Mr. Driskell used high density aluminum oxide as the implant material. In 1981, Driskell introduced an implant named Titanodont which was made from titanium alloy. Then, in 1985, he perfected his titanium implant design by patenting the DB Precision Implant, which is known today as the Bicon Dental Implant System. Whether Driskell knew it or not at the time he developed this implant system, his design coupled with the clinical support of Bicon has come to revolutionize implant dentistry by offering the innovations of SHORT® Implants, Integrated Abutment Crowns™, SynthoGraft™, and TRINIA™ and more. |
