SHORT® Implants in Contemporary Implantology

SHORT® Implants in Contemporary Implantology:

Indications, Biomechanics, and Long-Term Outcomes

This lecture examines how implant macro-geometry influences clinical performance and long-term stability. The Bicon system’s plateau design, locking taper seal, and sloping shoulder are contrasted with screw-retained systems, with clinical evidence showing crestal bone stability and bone gain. Indications for SHORT® and NARROW® implants are discussed, emphasizing simplified treatment, reduced surgical complexity, and improved practice efficiency.
