Summary

The DS Prime Taper EV dental implant system was recently launched on the implant market by Dentsply Sirona (York, PA, USA). Dental implant systems are undergoing rapid evolution, ultimately driven by their broad therapeutic indications. As manufacturers strive to keep up with the demands of a growing market, designs are changing faster than clinical evaluation. This means that the time needed to assess medium- and long-term clinical outcomes before designs change again cannot be met. Clinicians need to have a "real" analysis of the clinical performance of implants before using them. Therefore, reporting of results is necessary to avoid use in patients without proper practical checks even before the recommended 10- and 15-year follow-up periods.

Detailed description

The DS PrimeTaper implant has macro-design features that differ from its predecessor, the OsseoSpeed EV implant (AstraTech Implant System EV, Dentsply Implants, Mölndal, Sweden) with which they share a common surface and internal connection. Its macro-design has been modified through the introduction of variable thread forms and a more pronounced taper, ultimately making it more aggressive in terms of cutting ability. While its predecessor, the OsseoSpeed EV implant, has sufficient scientific support, this new system recently introduced on the market does not. All the scientific contributions that can be made will therefore be a first guide for the clinician who wishes to start using this dental implant system.
