NobelSpeedy Groovy implants are a type of implant with particular grooves. They are narrow and have a fully intertwined body to improve the firmness and steadiness of the implant – even in soft bone. In addition, they come in different diameters and lengths, providing surgical flexibility. The implants are made of biocompatible titanium with a TiUnite surface that allows for greater osseointegration. Osseointegration is the integration of the dental implant with the jawbone.

The All-on-4® procedure uses NobelSpeedy Groovy implants, including inserting two implants at an angle in the jaw, avoiding sinuses and thin, poor quality bone. The unique shapes of the implants provide a stable foundation for the bridge that is going to be attached. Speedy Groovy implants give a natural look and allow you to regain your teeth capabilities such as biting and speaking.

Benefits of Speedy Groovy Implants

• Speedy Groovy implants are designed to start functioning immediately after the jaw and gum are healed. The implants were introduced to ensure high stability in the soft and medium bones, which enable immediate functioning.
• Speedy Groovy implants require a shorter treatment period and reduced cost compared to full-arch treatments.
• Speedy Groovy implants do not require bone grafting even when the bone quality and quantity is limited.
• Speedy Groovy implants are a long time solution for missing teeth.

Risks Associated with Speedy Groovy Implants

The possibility of an implant failure is very unlikely as the success rate of the implants is 98%. However, sometimes, the treatment is accompanied by minimum risks.

• The experience of the dental surgeon is very crucial in the success of the implant. Therefore, choose a dental centre that has experienced dentists and dental surgeons.
• Health conditions such as unstable blood sugar levels can affect the healing process negatively.
• Inadequate bone density can result in failed osseointegration.
• There is a higher possibility of implant failure if the individual is a smoker.

The Procedure

During surgery, your remaining teeth are removed. Then, four Speedy Groovy dental implants are placed directly into the jawbone. The implants are used to support a full bridge of new teeth. The specialist takes impressions and send them to the lab to make the bridge. Within 12-24 hours, a temporary bridge is made. The patient stays with the temporary bridge and until their new permanent bridge is made and fitted on them.
