Implants AnyOne, AnyRidge, XiVE – which system is right for you?

In this article we will look at all the advantages and disadvantages of one of the most progressive implantation systems from the Korean company Megadgen - AnyRidge. It is believed that AnyRidge implants are maximally identical to the anatomy of a human tooth and have no equal in the world. Let’s try to summarize and present information about implants called AnyRidge as objectively as possible.

What is special about AnyRidge implants?

AnyRidge dental implants are often called the “modern word” in dental prosthetics or new generation implants. The Eniridge system is the most popular in Europe. Many consider Megadgen's AnyRidge implants to be the best or premium implants among other similar systems.

A distinctive feature of this system is the presence of a special thread that allows these implants to be fixed even in bones with reduced hardness.

The Korean Eniridge system combines the advantages of modern innovations in the field of implantology. This implant design has any size of implants to satisfy the needs of any patient.

The orthopedic components of these designs are equipped with a line of zirconium dioxide products, which makes it possible to obtain aesthetically ideal dentures for even the most capricious clients.

Many people are afraid that installation of most implant systems requires a particularly complex surgical operation. This system by the South Korean company AnyRidge is devoid of these difficulties: for its installation, one single small drill is used, which minimally injures the bone tissue. If the implant is installed soon after dental extraction, then there is no need to drill or cut the gum at all.

The pronounced thread in the implant system makes it extremely reliable and accessible for use even in the most difficult clinical situations. Such situations include weak bone tissue or thinning of the alveolar bone due to prolonged absence of a tooth.

About the manufacturer of AnyRidge systems from South Korea

Having started its activities in 2002, the company has significantly accelerated its development in the last 7 years, expanding its export geography from 30 countries to more than 90. MegaGen accounts for 40% of sales of implantation systems in the European market, by 2025 the company expects to enter the top 5 manufacturers implants in the world.

It produces more than 2000 types of components in various areas of dental implantology, conducts clinical research to develop new products. Popular models from the manufacturer: AnyOne, AnyRidge, MiNi. To train dentists, international seminars are organized and detailed training materials are prepared.

The essence of innovation of this method

Why does the AnyRidge system have no analogues in the world? Its special “advantage” is the ability to do without the tedious stage of bone grafting. Usually, implantation is not performed in “weak” bones, as it requires reliable fixation. Therefore, in case of bone defects, one has to deal with the tedious procedure of building it up and waste time on the healing of the implanted part of the bone. Not only can this process take several months, but foreign tissue may also be rejected, forcing the orthodontist to duplicate the augmentation procedure.

AnyRidge eliminates the need for such costly and time-consuming preparation processes. This fact is especially important for patients with a thinned alveolar bone crest.

This implantation system is installed with parallel splitting of the thinned ridge. In this case, dental restoration will take no more than three months. In addition to saving time, the load on the patient’s body is also minimized.

The fact that only one drill is used when installing an implant makes the installation process as comfortable as possible. And an additional “bonus” in the form of the absence of bone grafting allows you to make complete prosthetics of any complexity not in 10 months, but in just 3. After this, impressions are taken and permanent dentures are fixed.

Production technology and materials used

The company has developed a specialized XPEED surface based on SLA processing technology. With its help, acid residues are removed and an absolutely clean surface is created, and thanks to the application of a layer of calcium, the activity of the cells of the living part of the bone increases. Pure high-grade titanium is used to produce the implant body.

MegaGen has an ever-expanding, highly automated production facility that is responsible for three main processes:

  1. Milling of rods.
  2. Surface treatment.
  3. Package.

CAD/CAM (computer-aided design and manufacturing) technologies are actively used.

Advantages

Why are these Megadgen implant systems considered a breakthrough in dentistry? Let's look at the advantages that the installation of AnyRidge fixed prostheses provides. According to dental websites, these implants have advantages over other similar systems in the form of:

  • the ability to avoid drilling the jaw bones and cutting the gums during installation;
  • lack of bone grafting and the possibility of use for imperfect gums;
  • use of material in the form of high-quality ultra-pure titanium;
  • the ability to remove a tooth, implant an artificial root and install a temporary column in one visit;
  • gradually increasing the thread on the implant to achieve stable fixation even in weak or soft bone;
  • maximum comfort during installation thanks to the use of one filigree drill when implanting artificial roots;
  • excellent survival rate of this implant and a lifetime warranty of the system;
  • twice the surface area of ​​artificial roots than other models, which allows implants to be fixed in the upper jaw without sinus lift (if the bone is larger than 4 mm);
  • availability for prosthetics for people who are contraindicated with other types of implants;
  • almost 2 times larger implant area compared to standard models, which ensures the strength of the system and the possibility of installation even on low bones;
  • the ability of the implant to independently expand the bone, which reduces the time it takes to engraft and grow new bone tissue;
  • availability of 55 numbers of artificial roots, allowing you to select them for any patient and expand the indications for installation;
  • possibility of instant loading after installation;
  • predictable tissue regeneration;
  • the fastest possible (up to 2 months) and high-quality engraftment of this implantation system thanks to a special nanocoating of the implant with calcium ions in its composition;
  • maximum quality stabilization of the implant due to its special design and the ability to be installed in tissue of any density;
  • reliability of the connection in the form of a cone between the abutment and the implant, which eliminates instability and untwisting of the product even when the screw is removed;
  • high aesthetics of the implant and its smooth surface, which repels plaque;
  • complete elimination of product defects due to multiple checks of manufacturing accuracy and quality at all stages.

What is this unusual design?

The implant body has a diameter of only 3.3 mm, but the threads can reach a diameter of 5.5 mm. The implant fits into the bone like a corkscrew, so it is enough to make a hole with a diameter of 3.3 mm and you can install an implant with a thread diameter of 5.5 mm.

Look at the table comparing the Eniridge implant and a conventional implant. An Eniridge implant with a diameter of 5.5 (the diameter of the central core of the implant is only 3.3 mm) and a length of 4 mm has the surface area (161 mm2) of a conventional implant with a diameter of 4 mm and a length of 10 mm (164 mm2). By the way, this is the surface area of ​​the tooth root, so an implant with a diameter of 4 mm and a length of 10 mm is the most popular among implantologists. And the Eniridge implant, which is 5.5 mm in diameter and 5 mm in length, has a surface area (197 mm2) almost equal to that of a conventional 5 mm in diameter and 10 mm in length implant (214 mm2).

How is the implantation process performed?

The installation of implants is preceded by a preparation period.

The preparatory stage includes activities from:

  1. Examination of the oral cavity to identify dental problems.
  2. The therapist's assessment of the patient's general condition.
  3. Taking tests (general blood and urine tests).
  4. Sanitation of the oral cavity.
  5. Identification of structural features of the jaw and teeth (X-rays and tomography of the jaw).

Installation phase

To restore missing teeth, one of two methods is used: one-stage or classic. Prosthetics are possible both immediately after tooth extraction and several years after that. The method of implantation is chosen by the doctor depending on the complexity of the clinical situation. Implantation includes the following stages:

  1. Preparing the hole (about 3 mm) for implantation. Local anesthesia is used here.
  2. Selecting the shape of the future implant using computer modeling.
  3. Installation of artificial root (duration 10-30 minutes). Cutting the gum and peeling it off is necessary if the tooth was removed a long time ago.
  4. Screwing an artificial root like a gimlet into the bone tissue.
  5. Fixation of a temporary crown (at the request of the patient) made of composite materials with preliminary modeling using computer programs.
  6. Possibility of installing a ceramic prosthesis 2 months after implantation.

Rehabilitation period

Since the introduction of an artificial root is associated with deformation of the soft tissues of the oral cavity, a recovery period cannot be excluded.

It is important that the patient follows the following recommendations from the doctor during this period:

  • it is necessary to take medications prescribed by an implantologist;
  • if swelling occurs, you need to apply cold to the cheek in the projection of the implant;
  • after eating, you should make oral baths from a decoction of herbs;
  • You should brush your teeth with a soft-bristled brush.

During the recovery period, you need to adhere to a certain diet. It is not recommended to eat hot and hard foods.

To strengthen bone tissue, you should eat foods that contain calcium. You should also give preference to grated, liquid and pureed dishes.

There are no complications or allergic reactions after implantation, but the full functionality of the jaw is restored after some time.

Contraindications

The use of these implants minimizes contraindications to prosthetics.

However, there are general disorders in the body for which any intervention is prohibited. Such situations occur in the following conditions:

  1. Pregnancy.
  2. Acute infectious diseases.
  3. Oncological diseases.
  4. Blood clotting disorders.
  5. Allergies to the use of anesthesia.
  6. Exacerbations of mental illness.
  7. Acute inflammatory diseases in the oral cavity.

Many contraindications are temporary. To determine existing contraindications, before implantation, the patient must be examined by a therapist and a number of laboratory tests are performed.

About the timing of implant installation

When installing Eniridge systems, it is possible to significantly reduce the time required for prosthetics.

When using other types of implant structures, the process from bone growth to their final engraftment takes on average about a year. With these implants, the installation time is reduced to 3 months. Their implantation includes the following steps:

  • tooth extraction procedures with installation of an artificial root – lasts about 1-1.5 hours;
  • covering the implant with a permanent crown (with the process of fusion of the product with the jaw bone) – 3 months after installation;
  • recovery period (taking into account the beginning of implant installation and until the functionality and aesthetics of the teeth are fully achieved) - includes about 3 months (instead of the traditional 9 months).

Distinctive characteristics of the system

5 main differences between AnyRidge dental structures and other systems:

  1. Coating. The application of hydroxyapatite with the addition of calcium to the surface creates a nano-layer 20 times thinner than traditional rods and protects the material from peeling and destruction.
  2. Installation process. The patented form of self-tapping thread allows for the removal of less volume in soft bone types and facilitates surgery in hard bone types.
  3. Support points. To provide primary stability, titanium roots do not involve cortical bone. This preserves it, preventing resorption, stimulates the process of osseointegration, and maintains the gum surface in good condition.
  4. Large surface area. AnyRidge for different types of bone differ in the size of the threads, but have the same diameter. This allows you to increase the area of ​​interaction with the bone and increase the stability of the implant.
  5. They can be implanted without prior bone grafting. The increased surface area of ​​the rod allows you to avoid building up the bone while maintaining its good condition. Even years after implantation, the level of the alveolar ridge remains the same, and the gums acquire a natural position.

Flaws

Little is known about the disadvantages of these implants. These mainly include the high cost of these structures.

Let’s figure out whether these record-breaking installation times for these structures will really not affect the quality or service life of the implant.

  1. It has been proven that 55 sizes of artificial roots provide every chance to choose an individual approach for each patient. If there is no need for a gum incision, then the minimum implantation time can be one minute. However, this period depends on the condition of the patient’s oral cavity.
  2. The implant designs are as reliable as possible in use. The abutment serves as an intermediate link between the tooth and the artificial root. There are special “tricks” that provide special strength to the implant in the jaw and prevent it from loosening. An important feature of the Eniridge implant system, which prevents the fixing screw of artificial teeth from unwinding, is the connection of the implant to the abutment at an angle of 5 degrees.
  3. The lifetime warranty of these implants further confirms their reliability. Thanks to this implantation system, it is possible to install removable, fixed, conditionally removable, bridge, single and other prostheses. Materials for manufacturing can be different: ceramics, metal, zirconium dioxide, etc.

Price

As for the price of AnyRidge implants, it is quite high. This is due to several factors:

  1. The complex design of the system, in which the developers tried to provide for many nuances and disadvantages of most other implantation systems.
  2. The installation procedure is complicated for the doctor, which increases the appointment time and places special demands on the doctor’s qualifications and professionalism.
  3. A significant reduction in treatment time due to the absence of the need for sinus lift.
  4. The ability to use implants without any risk of rejection or damage in those clinical cases where other implants cannot be selected (use for medium, low and low density bone biotypes).
  5. Lifetime warranty from the manufacturer of these structures.

Regarding the average cost of these fixed prostheses, it can be stated that the process of surgical installation of one AnyRidge implant is about 30,000 rubles.

Many clinics indicate in their price lists the price range for different stages of installing Eniridge implants. For example:

  • the cost of stage 1 is about 54 – 55,000 rubles;
  • the cost of stage 2 is about 43 – 45,000 rubles;
  • turnkey prices are about 97 - 99,000 rubles.

How much does it cost to put

Turnkey implantation with crown

The cost of an implant of the current year of manufacture and the operation to install it will be from 40,000 rubles. Turnkey implantation with a metal-ceramic crown costs from 70,000 rubles. Installing a zirconium crown without metal will increase the price by 15-20 thousand rubles. Additionally, the price will be influenced by the following factors:

  • clinic status;
  • location of the clinic;
  • qualifications and experience of the doctor performing the operation;
  • implant model;
  • the need for additional procedures.

Reviews

Let's look at several reviews from patients and doctors who have installed or are installing AnyRidge prostheses.

Nina Vladimirovna, Moscow

As a physician, I have been installing AnyRidge systems since 2001 and have been very pleased with them. These implants are not only extremely aesthetically pleasing, but are also ideal for immediate installation into bone tissue with defects.

Anna, Ulyanovsk

I received 5 AnyRidge implants. I'm very pleased with the result. The teeth turned out gorgeous and matched perfectly with the “native” ones. The installation was quick and painless. I use my new teeth and enjoy life.

Tamara Ivanovna, Simferopol

My dental situation was so critical that many dentists only suggested wearing removable dentures. But I managed to find a clinic that works with Eniridge implants. Everything went quickly and painlessly, although a little expensive for me. But now I’m showing off my new teeth and I’m just happy.

Summarizing the numerous positive reviews from the Internet, the conclusion suggests itself that AnyRidge implants really receive a lot of positive reviews among patients and doctors. We can say about this implantation system that it is simply devoid of any serious drawbacks.

The only thing that is high is the price, because of which not everyone can afford to install these fixed dentures. However, technologically, the price of Energy designs is largely justified, compensating for this minus with large “pluses” in the form of a lifetime warranty, speed of installation and the absence of the need for sinus lifting. Not all modern designs can boast as many advantages as these.
