The Best Top 12 Dental Implant Brands

5 minute read

By Hayley Harrison

In the United States alone, more than 36 million people have lost all their teeth, and 120 million more are missing one or more teeth, according to the American College of Prosthodontists.1 Dental implants provide a permanent replacement for missing teeth and can improve your appearance, your ability to chew and your overall oral health.

Despite their many potential benefits, dental implant procedures are not without risks. Poorly designed implants may fail, cause infection or damage the gums and jaw. The Kaiser Family Foundation discovered 2.1 million complaints about dental implants in a 2021 review of U.S. Food and Drug Administration reports, showing how important it is to use caution when choosing implants.2

The following 12 top dental implant brands stand out for their long history of safe use and advanced technologies and may provide the ideal solution for you.

1. Nobel Biocare

Nobel Biocare is one of the top-selling brands of dental implants in the United States. Since 2022, the brand has operated out of its headquarters in Kloten, Switzerland. Nobel Biocare offers two main lines of implants: Xeal and TiUltra.

Xeal implants preserve the soft tissue in the affected area and promote regeneration to reduce the risk of complications related to implantation procedures. The innovative TiUltra implants feature strategic variations in surface texture that help preserve the strength of the jawbone and surrounding teeth.3

2. Strauman

Strauman is also a Swiss dental implant brand headquartered in Basel. The company gives dentists a wide range of product options to consider when developing an implant treatment plan for patients.

Some models feature Roxolid, a proprietary metal alloy made of zirconium and titanium that’s stronger than other metals commonly used to manufacture implants. In addition, the brand pioneered SLActive technology, a surface texture design clinically shown to reduce healing time from six to eight weeks to only three to four weeks.4

3. Dentsply Sirona

Dentsply Sirona is a publicly traded company based in Charlotte, North Carolina. It was formed following the merger of Gendex Corporation and Dentsply International Inc. in 1993. The company manufactures three main dental implant systems:

  1. DS Prime Taper;
  2. Astra Tech, and;
  3. Xive.5

Dentists who choose to partner with Dentsply Sirona receive additional support that some other brands don’t provide. For example, the company offers online training programs to keep dentists up to date on the latest advancements in implant dentistry.

4. Zimmer Biomet

Zimmer Biomet is a medical device manufacturer based in Warsaw, Indiana. Since 1927, the company has produced equipment and devices related to bones, joints and teeth. Its dental implant lineup includes the T3, Trabecular Metal, and Eztetic systems.

T3 implants are especially well known. These implants have a hybrid design that makes them ideal for patients who have significant bone loss. A five-year clinical study revealed that the patients who received T3 implants were less likely to develop infections and soft tissue problems than those treated with other implants.6

5. Implant Direct

Founded in 2006, Implant Direct revolutionized the dental implant industry by selling its products directly to dentists online. By doing so, the California-based company made acquiring the materials for implant procedures more affordable for dentists and their patients.

Today, Implant Direct is owned by Envista, the parent company of Nobel Biocare. The brand manufactures Legacy2, Legacy3, and Legacy4 implant systems and rigorously tests its products to ensure safety and effectiveness. Research shows that Legacy products remain stable and result in only minimal bone and soft tissue changes within five years of implantation.7

6. BioHorizons

BioHorizons is a dental implant manufacturer located in Birmingham, Alabama. The company began producing dental implants in 1994, and its Tapered Plus, Tapered Pro, and Tapered 3.0 implant systems are popular among dentists.

All Tapered dental implants feature Laser-Lok channels that help soft tissue bind to their surfaces after implantation. Not only does this help support the healing process, but it also forms a tight seal against microbes to reduce the risk of infection.8

7. Hossein Implant

Hossein Implant is a subsidiary of the South Korean company Osstem Implant established in the United States in 2006. The company manufactures its dental implants at a facility in Fairless Hills, Pennsylvania, and has its headquarters in Englewood, New Jersey.

The ET Implant System is Hossein Implant’s best-selling implant line and is available in three designs to suit patients’ needs. Major publications, including CR Foundation and Dentistry Today, have lauded the quality of the ET system, praising its straightforward deployment system that makes implant procedures simpler and quicker to complete in dental offices.9

8. ACE Surgical

Oral surgeon Dr. J. Edward Carchidi founded ACE Surgical Supply in Brockton, Massachusetts, in 1966. The company manufactures a wide range of dental supplies and appliances, including the top-rated Infinity Dental Implant system.10

Designed with the needs of dentists and their patients in mind, Infinity implants are engineered to lower the likelihood of complications, such as bone loss, screw loosening and breakage. ACE Surgical Supply’s commitment to reducing overhead and operating costs makes Infinity Dental implants a more economical option than other systems.

9. Blue Sky Bio

Since 2005, Blue Sky Bio has developed cutting-edge dental implants and other dental equipment in Libertyville, Illinois. By selling directly to dentists through an e-commerce site, the company has made dental implantation procedures more affordable without sacrificing quality.

Its BIO line of dental implants includes a variety of options to suit various patient needs. BIO Max implants are popular choices due to the company’s ActivFluor technology that enhances the surfaces of screws with fluoride. The presence of the mineral increases the stability of implants.11

10. Titan Implants

When Titan Implants launched in 2000 in Bergenfield, New Jersey, many of the dental implants available on the market featured serious design flaws that made them unable to attach securely. From the start, the company was committed to solving this all-too-common problem. Its research and development team made huge strides in implant area attachment technology.

The company doesn’t produce standalone implants. Instead, it focuses on making hardware that can be used with many popular dental implants to cut down on the risk of infection and boost stability.12

11. MegaGen

MegaGen is a South Korean company that operates in more than 100 countries. Its U.S. arm, MegaGen America, has its headquarters in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey.

The brand’s top dental implant line is the BlueImplant, so named because of its blue color. Its unique hue allows dentists to more easily spot acid residues on the surface and remove them prior to implantation to cut down on the likelihood of complications. BlueImplant has won the Trusted Quality Award from Clean Implant Foundation five times due to its safety and efficacy.13

12. Bicon

Established in 1985 in Boston, Massachusetts, Bicon is one of the oldest dental implant manufacturers based in the United States. The company’s original Bicon SHORT implants remain a top choice among dentists due to their long history of use and simple yet highly effective design.

These implants boast a locking taper to increase the stability of the connection and feature a plateau-like base that provides a larger surface area for soft tissue to bind to during the healing process.14

Getting the Best Dental Implants for Your Needs

Choosing dental implants and the dentist who will perform the procedure carefully is vital to the success of treatment. To set yourself up for the best results, schedule consultations with more than one dentist. Ask about their individual experience performing dental implants. Find out what implants they offer and which one they believe is the right option for you.

Taking the time to weigh all the available options can go a long way toward ensuring that you end up with implants that stand the test of time and fit, look and function as naturally as possible.
