Alpha Bio implants have been produced in Israel for more than twenty-five years. They are extremely popular and in great demand due to their high quality and affordable price. The manufacturer is, it has been in second place on the market for a long time and is popular both in Israel and around the world. It is important to note that, despite the huge demand on the world stage, the company does not stand still and continues to make developments.
Thanks to this article, you will be able to compare different types of implants, learn about their differences, pros and cons. You can also learn about the structure of implants, their features and the cost of their installation. This will help you make the right choice without overpayments.
Composition of Alpha-Bio implants
The company makes implants from an alloy that includes titanium, as well as aluminum and vanadium for longer service. Because the titanium base is diluted, the strength of the implants increases by 13% compared to iron posts. This is one of the most popular manufacturing materials. However, this alloy has a disadvantage: it slightly worsens the survival rate of the implant (it is about 98%).
The upper part of the implants is performed in a modern way: first of all, the surface undergoes a treatment process, after which the surface layer is removed using chemicals. Almost all modern implants have this type of surface.
The surface is porous, so it is easily fixed in the bone and combines well with the composition of the blood. However, the latest developments are not used in the manufacture of such a surface. They are used only on expensive implants: this promotes faster engraftment, reduces the risk of rejection, and reduces the waiting period before prosthetics.
Strauman implants
The company's implants are manufactured in the USA, but initially their main production was based in Switzerland. Strauman prosthetics occupy 20% of the current international market.
They are included in the premium category and have a number of unique advantages that other implant developers cannot boast of:
- The newest material Roxolid, which is an alloy of zirconium and titanium. It has a more porous structure, which stimulates the process of bone growth into the implant (osseointegration). In addition, this alloy is stronger and more reliable than conventional metal structures. It practically does not cause allergic reactions and takes root very well.
- Strauman has been using SLA coating on implants since the 90s. In this case, the surface is sandblasted and then subjected to acid etching. It becomes rough, making it easy for bone to grow into it. A small disadvantage of SLA is that the coating repels water, which interferes with the fixation of fibrin on the implant.
- SLActive surface, which promotes a higher rate of osseointegration than implants with other surfaces (including SLA). Thus, the implant takes root in a record 3-4 weeks. This design is also recommended for smokers - their engraftment is much slower.
Strauman products are represented by two series of implants:
- “Tissue Level Implants” is a design designed to preserve the maximum amount of soft tissue. This effect is achieved due to the smooth neck, the screwing of which into the gum is atraumatic. There are three types of implants in this series: Straumann Standard Implant (S), Straumann Standard Plus Implant (SP), Straumann Tapered Effect Implant (TE). The first two implants are cylindrical in shape, but the Strauman S has a larger neck height. They are used for implementation in several stages, since they have to work in conditions of a small amount of gum. Within 2-4 months, the gums securely envelop the neck, after which a crown can be placed. Strauman TE has a cone shape and is used for early implantation (the first few days after tooth extraction).
- Bone Level Implants are smaller in size than the previous series and do not contain a neck. Widely used in the visible area of the smile - the edge of the crown will be securely covered by the gum. Available in two varieties. Strauman Bone Level - used only for implantation in two stages. This design prevents bone tissue atrophy. They have a cylindrical shape and are necessarily coated with SLA or SLActive. Strauman Bone Level Tapered is suitable for immediate implantation. It can be carried out directly after tooth extraction - the design has a cone-shaped top with a special thread, which helps securely fasten the implant.
A separate category is made up of the latest development - a ceramic implant that does not contain metal. This material is relevant for patients with very thin gums, because the implant itself has the color of a natural tooth and does not darken the color of the gums, like a metal structure. In terms of reliability, durability and hypoallergenic properties, such an implant is in no way inferior to its metal counterparts.
The price of Strauman implants is quite high - from 80,000 to 100,000 rubles per unit. But it is important to note that these implants are the strongest and most reliable on the market today, and also take root the fastest thanks to innovative coatings.
Characteristics of Alpha Bio implant models
Currently, Alpha-Bio Tec has 8 implants of different types:
- NEO1;
- SPI;
- ISE;
- DFI;
- ATID;
- NEO2;
- NICE;
- Arrow.
The first five options refer to implants with an internal hexagon, while the rest are a system in which there is also a conical type connection with six edges. This option is used if there is not enough bone for installation. Arrows are used for incisors on both the upper and lower jaws.
The shape of the implants is selected according to the characteristics of the jaw shape, which allows them to be installed even by people with a significant defect in the shape of the jaw. A correctly chosen form can reduce injuries to soft tissues, while reducing the healing time of the implant. Thanks to the hexagonal shape, the risk of food getting into the gaps or causing infection is reduced to a minimum. The average healing time for implants is 5 months.
NEO
This type of implant is a classic option for any type of bone. In its device, it has a main and 2 microthreads, which allows you to increase the area of the implant that touches the bone. This significantly improves survival rate. Such implants allow them to be installed with less trauma to the bone, and therefore heal much faster. This type is used for classical implantation in two stages and is installed in bones of any size and density.
A significant advantage of this type of implant is the ability to implement highly aesthetic restorations on its surface.
SPI
This type of implant is called a flagship. This type is used mainly for soft bones. This implant is very small, so it screws in, allowing the bone tissue to compact around it, ensuring the stability of the implant for a long time. This allows these implants to be used for immediate prosthetics.
This type of implant is also used when space is critically limited: it requires only 2 mm of free space around the implant, separating it from your own tooth. Thanks to screwing, it can be used even in cases where there is very little bone tissue. The advantage is the ability to install the implant immediately, without additional preparation.
ICE
This type is suitable for implanting any type of bone tissue, i.e. is universal and can be used for all types of prosthetics anywhere. Thanks to its special design, this implant does not allow the gum to recede.
DFI
Such implants are also universal, but are more often used for dense bone tissue due to their screw shape. That is why they ensure strong stability of the implant during the operation and heal quickly.
ATID
These implants are suitable for the hardest bone tissues, which have few blood vessels, most often the lower jaw. A feature of this type of implant is the ability to evenly distribute large loads. The healing period for this type of implant is approximately 5 months.
NEO2
All NEO type implants are considered a new generation of implants due to their spiral shape, which allows them to be used with minimal free space. With their help, you can perform aesthetic prosthetics using CAD or CAM technologies.
NICE
This type of implant is distinguished by its thinness, so it is very convenient to use in narrow parts of the jaws. It is used in very confined spaces, most often near natural teeth or their roots.
The implant itself is a thin conical body with a sharply sharpened thread and a conical hexagonal connection.
Arrow
These implants are a system that includes two types: ARRP and ARRC.
ARRP is a one-piece implant with a removable abutment, used in cases where the jaw shape is very narrow. It is intended for implantation of incisors on both jaws. Such implants are an ideal option for instant prosthetics. ARRC is similar to the implant described above, its only difference is the absence of a removable upper part. This allows you to choose the right one for any type of prosthetics.

Pros and cons of Alpha Bio implants
Despite the large number of advantages, implants belong to the economy class, so the latest developments are not used in their production.
Advantages of Alpa-bio implants
The implants are made of a reliable titanium alloy, which contains aluminum and vanadium. This fusion takes root in almost 100% of patients. Implants are distinguished by their high strength and longevity - more than 10 years. Their design is completely safe, installation takes little time with minimal damage, which makes the healing process very fast.
A significant advantage is the ability to install an implant immediately after removing your own tooth. This does not require additional installation of a titanium rod. Both one-stage and two-stage implantation can be performed. The shape and type of implant is selected individually, taking into account the shape of the jaw, bone density and volume. This allows implantation even with the thinnest bone tissue.
Due to the fact that the implants are made of titanium alloy, the risk of allergies is completely eliminated. All implants have a shape that is as close as possible to the original shape of the tooth, which makes the healing process with minimal trauma. The coating has a porous structure, which improves the stability of the implant and also speeds up the healing process - it happens quickly and allows you to install dentures in the shortest possible time. The pores also help the implant and bone tissue to grow together faster.
Cons of Alpha Bio
Despite the high strength of implants, due to the presence of aluminum and vanadium in the alloy, their survival rate slightly deteriorates (by 2-3%). Also, this type of surface does not have an ultra-hydrophilic coating, which is found in more expensive implants. Because of this, the survival process takes longer.
The versatility of Alpha Bio implants
Typically, dental clinics work with only a few implantation systems (one or two), since each of them requires large financial costs. Any of the systems requires certain expensive surgical instruments, orthopedic kits and much more. That is why surgeons often do not offer the best implantation option that suits the client based on his characteristics, but make a choice from the available options, because he is limited by the choice of implants with which he works.
It is worth highlighting that each implant is produced in a unique package. It is completely sealed and therefore protects the product from possible damage. Thanks to this packaging, the implant is installed immediately after opening it, without any contact with any surfaces.
GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE SYSTEM
Implants are rods shaped like screws made from a metal alloy. They are installed directly into the jaw bone so that they replace the missing root and serve as the basis for an orthopedic structure in the form of an artificial tooth crown.
Artificial roots take on all the functions of natural ones. This may require different solutions and types of rods. The Alpha-Bio system presents a large number of implant design options, which differ in the following parameters:
- width;
- length;
- form;
- designs;
- design;
- type of thread;
- price.
It is worth noting that the percentage of complete engraftment of Alpha-Bio products is very high - almost 99%. The diversity gives the doctor the opportunity to solve almost any orthopedic problem, and the special coating improves the ability of implants to osseointegrate.
Material and surface NanoTec
Numerous dental studies have made it clear that material plays a very important role in osseointegration (the process by which contact is formed between living bone tissue and a metal implant).
The surface of the rod is also important. That is why Alpha-Bio specialists conducted extensive research and created an extremely functional composition from the alloy and its special surface.
An extremely fine-grained titanium alloy graded Ti-6AI-4V ELI has been developed. It itself has enormous strength and compatibility with living tissues of the body, which allows you to maximize the service life of the entire structure.
In addition, special processing makes it possible to create a special surface structure - NanoTec (Nanotec). If you examine it at very high magnification, you will see an uneven, extremely heterogeneous relief.
It is created using sandblasting with medium-fraction aluminum oxide powder, after which the results are complemented by acid etching.
All this makes it possible to significantly increase the surface area in three dimensions, which causes the surface to “absorb” proteins from the blood plasma immediately after installation and improves wettability upon contact with tissues.
Packaging Features
It is also worth saying a few words about the packaging in which the implants are placed. Thanks to its design, materials and new characteristics, even the process of initial insertion of the rod into the bone is greatly simplified.
The special internal holder is designed so that installation can be carried out in different ways. These include using a special key, a physiodispenser, a special screwdriver, and even manually.
Complete sterility is achieved due to the fact that the packaging has a double sealed structure. And additional convenience lies in the ease of opening and use. In addition, a cover screw and a universal implant driver are also located inside.
Dental implantation with the Alpha Bio implant system
The implantation system includes only eight types of implants, with the help of which it is possible to carry out implantation for any structural features of the jaw and for any bone density.
There are implants that are used only for immediate prosthetics, while others are used for standard implantation in two stages. In addition, there are models that can improve the fixation of removable prostheses.
Among other things, there are types of implants that can be used to perform implantation in cases of significant bone deficiency. With their help, there is no need to build up additional bone tissue.
Alpha Bio implants are distinguished by their durability, are safe and have an aesthetic appearance. All types of implants have undergone numerous quality checks. Implants are distinguished by their strength, long service life (more than 10 years), exert little pressure on the jaw bone, and also have a thread with a self-tapping effect.
They are easy to install and provide primary stability. The company produces implants that are as close in shape as possible to the natural shape of the tooth - this makes the healing process faster and virtually painless, without adding unnecessary trauma. Another feature: you can chew with new dentures immediately after their installation, which is a definite plus.
A significant advantage is the conical shape: it promotes rapid healing of the implant and also reduces the amount of damage during installation. It requires a minimal amount of bone tissue without additional augmentation, which allows implants to be installed at very low bone density. Another advantage is that there is no need to prepare the jaw bed before installing the pin.
In Russia, these implants are quite popular, so you can find them by contacting almost any dentistry. The company itself also focuses on the Russian market, holding various master classes and seminars. Training courses for working with Alpha Bio products are also often organized.

Dual Fit – DFI
Helical cone-shaped rod with a diameter of 2.5 mm. It allows you to minimize trauma, and the “double step” increases ease of installation. Suitable for attachment to almost all types of bone tissue. It also gives a high aesthetic value. In addition, when introducing a rod of this series, chewing loads are evenly distributed throughout the entire jaw.
Spiral – SPI
Thanks to the spiral of the screw, it has the property of self-tightening. The internal hexagon has a diameter of 2.5 mm. This type does not require preparation of the primary bone bed. This design has maximum initial stability, therefore it is suitable for both complex cases and single-stage implantation with immediate load on the installed rods.
Standard - ATID
It has a double thread and a cylindrical shape. Suitable for standard hard bone types. However, with some changes in the installation process, it can be installed in softer ones. There is also a self-tapping effect.
Thin – NICE
With their help, the best aesthetic results are achieved. This is due to the fact that the rods have a very small diameter and can be installed even in the frontal areas, where the thinnest bone is located. The installation process is simplified by the presence of a built-in abutment in the design. Their properties accelerate the healing and rehabilitation process.
Arrow Press – ARRP
Monolithic rod of the highest quality, suitable for one-step installation. Has a built-in abutment. Available in several versions, allowing you to choose a model for installing removable dentures.
Arrow Press Changeb – ARRC
The unique design with an internal hexagon allows the change of superstructures, that is, superstructures. This makes changes and adjustments to the original treatment plan possible. Suitable not only for any type of bone, but also for narrow alveolar ridges.
Temporary implants ARB and ARR are also available, each of which has its own characteristics.
ADVANTAGES AND DISADVANTAGES
The company's products have a huge number of advantages over implants from other manufacturers.
- Incredible biocompatibility and survival rate. This is caused by the properties of the surface and material, which allow the penetration of living particles into the rod and provoke their microcirculation there, which increases the strength of the fastening.
- The large thread makes it possible to initially firmly install the rod in the jaw.
- Most varieties of Alpha-Bio products that can be purchased have minimum requirements for the quality and quantity of bone tissue available. This simplifies the entire process, since there is no need to build up bone using a complex sinus lift operation, which has a long recovery period.
- The anatomically correct shape allows for minimal intervention in the so-called anatomical layers of the jaw bone. And, as a result, a reduction in surgical traumatism.
- The shortest possible time for the full implantation cycle. In some cases, literally all stages can be completed in just one visit, after which chewing and aesthetic functions are completely restored.
- Simplicity and ease of installation speed up the process and make it comfortable for both the doctor and the patient.
If we talk about negative qualities, then a relative disadvantage is that some cases of contraindications exclude the possibility of installing these implants. However, the same can be said about products from other manufacturers.
HOW IS THE INSTALLATION DONE?
The installation process consists of a large number of steps. There is also a special installation protocol that briefly describes them. This means that the dentist can draw up a preliminary treatment plan in advance and inform the patient about it.
Here's how the process works.
Preliminary studies
In order to evaluate the future installation, it is necessary to conduct thorough examinations of the bone, bite, soft tissues and a complete dental history.
In order to evaluate the future installation, it is necessary to conduct thorough examinations of the bone, bite, soft tissues and a complete dental history.
This is necessary for the correct selection of equipment for implantation in order to achieve the best results. The studies also include assessment of bone quality and quantity in horizontal and vertical dimensions.
Implant selection
When choosing, the dentist takes into account many factors that influence the main parameters of the rod. The length is selected in accordance with the vertical size of the bone tissue.
When installing, it is necessary to leave a safety zone of 2 mm from important anatomical structures of the jaw. To determine the diameter, the width of the bone crest is important. It is necessary that in the end, no less than 1.5 mm of bone remains around the rod.
Preparing for surgery
Such an intervention can only occur after complete sanitation of the oral cavity (treatment of teeth and soft tissues, professional cleaning). When all the shortcomings have been eliminated, the operation can begin. Initially, premedication and administration of local anesthetics are necessary.
Bed
First of all, the surgeon must prepare a bed in the bone for installation. To do this, you need to cut and push back the gum tissue, then use a special drill to make a preliminary hole in the bone.
It is necessary to check its parameters. The Alfa-Bio system allows you to use several special templates that facilitate subsequent installation and improve its quality. Next, alternating drills with increasingly larger diameters, they make an exact hole in the bone, which is called the bed.
Implementation
Using special additional tools (driver and key), the implant itself is inserted all the way into the prepared bed. The doctor acts carefully, avoiding contact with the gums or saliva, as well as excessive force.
Installing the plug
To do this, use a screw of a special configuration. It is gently screwed into the implant. After this, the soft tissues are connected and sutured.
With a one-step technique
If the rod is completely stable, then immediately after its insertion you can also install a device called a gum former. It is also installed using a key.
Load
If the rod is stable, you can immediately attach the abutment (a kind of adapter between the implant and the dental prosthesis itself - the crown) and install a substitute for the upper part of the tooth - the crown.
In these cases, immediate load on the rod performing the root function not only does not interfere with osseointegration, but even accelerates this process. In fact, the installation procedure is somewhat more complicated than described above, but this one only conveys the basic steps.

Cost of implants
- 1. When implanting several teeth. The installation cost for one implant is 20 thousand rubles. The price includes only the operation without a crown. Compared to other mid- and premium-class implants, this cost is very low. In the first case, the cost of one operation alone can be more than 70 thousand rubles.
Cost with consumables:
- with a metal-ceramic crown - from 35 thousand rubles;
- with ceramic zirconium - from 50 thousand rubles.
- 2. In case of complete absence of teeth. A jaw that is completely missing teeth is recommended to be implanted with a long-term fixed prosthesis, which contains four implants. The price of such prosthetics ranges from 150 thousand rubles to 180 thousand rubles.
These prices are very low, especially considering that the quality is in no way inferior to premium implants.
AB Dental – Israeli quality mark
Implants manufactured by AB Dental Devices have been produced for more than 20 years. These solutions help implement a range of implantation protocols for patients with any diagnosis. A series of artificial roots successfully undergo international certification, and most importantly, they demonstrate positive osseointegration statistics in different patients. There is an opinion that it is best to place Israeli Dental implants immediately after removing your teeth. Thus, the procedure is almost atraumatic, the patient does not spend money on building up bone material, thereby saving time on healing and money on restoring a smile.
Israeli AB Dental implants are made of biocompatible medical titanium with a special rough coating. The pride of the company is one- and two-element roots with a hexagon inside and pronounced carvings. Such implants reliably and relatively quickly take root in the bone and are suitable for both classical two-stage and one-stage implantation.
The most popular groups of implants from the AB Dental range:
- 6-sided conical shape with pronounced thread - I5;
- cylindrical root with a hexagon inside – I2;
- I6B – ultra-thin root;
- I6 – traditional thin pin, etc.
Experts highlight a number of advantages of Israeli AB Dental pins:
- comfort for the surgeon – such systems are convenient to work with and ensure easy installation in the required position;
- stable position due to pronounced thread;
- roots can be implanted into even the densest or, on the contrary, porous bone;
- the prospect of immediate loading - ready-made solutions for express implantation.
The average price of Israeli Dental implants is about 20 thousand rubles.
Service life and warranty
guarantees indefinite wearing of implants. In case of implant rejection, splitting or other damage, re-installation is performed. However, in this case, the claim must be submitted in writing, i.e. proof of guilt of the company that performed the implantation. Then re-implantation will be carried out at the expense of the company or doctor who installed the implant the first time.
A lifetime guarantee means that Alpha Bio implants are worn for life. This is a great advantage: you only need to perform one operation, which will last for a lifetime. However, it is important to consider that the service life depends not only on the quality of the implants and the installer, but also on the patient’s care for the prostheses. It is imperative to maintain thorough oral hygiene and undergo regular dental examinations.
Model range and scope of dental bases Alpha Bio
Alpha Bio - implants (patient reviews talk about a wide range of models), which have several main types and subtypes.
At the moment, the manufacturer produces 3 main types of metal roots - with an internal hexagon, thin designs and products in the form of a cone.
Implants with internal hexagon
This type of implant includes models NeO-1, SPI, DFI, ATID, ICE.
Characteristics/description of models:
- NeO-1. These designs are a classic version and are made in the form of a spiral. They can be implanted in any bone and in any area. Thanks to several types of threads on the prosthesis, the product can be installed without much difficulty or damage to adjacent tooth tissues. At the same time, the design ensures a stable fit and is resistant to loads. The diameter of the product comes in several types - 3.75; 4.2 and 5.0 mm. The length of the structure varies from 8 to 13 mm.
- SPI. This type of dental device is a leader in the sales market. It is made in the form of a spiral, which allows it to be securely fixed during installation. The prosthesis is used for surgical installations without additional dental procedures. The orthopedic device has high aesthetic properties. Which are achieved due to minimal trauma. Prosthetics are used for soft bones (types 3 and 4). The diameter of the device ranges from 3.3 to 6 mm. Moreover, its length is standard and ranges from 8 to 16 mm.
- ATID. This type of model is a classic option and is used for prosthetics of dense bones (types 1 and 2). Used for installing implants in the lower jaw. In this case, the load on the bone is distributed evenly. The diameter of the product ranges from 3.3 to 6 mm. Length varies from 6 to 16 mm.
- ICE. This type of construction has high aesthetic properties and can be used for both hard and soft bones. Implantation of a prosthesis can occur in various ways using a variety of techniques. At the same time, the entire process is low-traumatic and allows one to achieve a high fixing ability of the prosthesis. Diameter sizes - from 3.7 to 5.3 mm. Length varies from 6 to 16 mm.
- DFI. This type of product is universal and has screw threads on the surface. The implant is widely used for prosthetics in dense bones (types 1, 2 and 3). The installation procedure is simple and can be done in a variety of ways. The diameter of the product ranges from 3.3 to 5 mm. Length varies from 6 to 16 mm.
To select a specific type of metal root, you must first consult with a specialist.
Conical hex implants
This series includes the following types of structures: NeO-2 and NICE.
Description of models:
- NeO-2. This type of implant has a thin design that allows you to restore the aesthetic component of the dentition. In this case, installation occurs in areas where the alveolar ridge is relatively small in size. The diameter of the structures is 3.2 and 3.5 mm. The length of the prosthesis can vary from 8 to 16 mm.
- NICE. This type of dental device is used in hard-to-reach narrow places and is used for atrophic changes in the area of bone substance. When installed, the implant evenly distributes the load and prevents further bone destruction. The diameter of the product is 3.2 mm.
At the moment, the company produces only 2 types of such structures.
Thin implants
Implants of this type are represented by a model called ARROW. The prosthesis from the manufacturer Alpha Bio has the shape of an arrow, pointed towards the bottom. According to patient reviews, the presented model has high aesthetic properties.
The design is divided into 2 main subtypes:
- ARRP. This prosthesis consists of 2 non-removable parts - the abutment and the implant itself. The design is used for aesthetic restoration of teeth in the smile area. An orthopedic product is used to restore the lower or upper lateral incisors.
- ARRC. This type of prosthesis is an analogue of the previous implant. However, unlike it, both parts can be removed.
According to the type of application, the specified metal roots are used for aesthetic purposes.
Reviews
Since the Alpha Bio company is one of the most popular in the world for the production of implants, there are, accordingly, a lot of customers and reviews. As the main advantages, patients highlight the very fast and painless installation of implants - only 15 minutes. I am also delighted by the low price and excellent quality. After installing the implants, there is virtually no pain, and the dentures take root and feel like natural teeth. A large number of positive reviews from people who have problems: too little bone tissue, weak gums, soft bone tissue. However, Alpha Bio implants have a large selection of products for any occasion, so the installation was also quick and painless, without causing any complications both during and after the operation. In addition, these implants can be installed several at a time absolutely painlessly. Pain does not appear even after the anesthesia wears off.
However, as mentioned above, not only the implants play an important role, but also the doctor who installed them, as well as the care of the patient after installation.
Types of AlphaBio implants
There are several types of implants produced by the company on sale. They all have different dimensions, depending on their purpose. These implants look like real teeth.
- The standard Alpha-Tec denture does not have a smooth surface, allowing it to sit firmly in the jaw tissue.
- DFI – intended for use in weak bone tissue.
- Spiral – used for installation in a narrow jawbone, or in patients with sensitive tissue.
- Arrow Press - used if you need a quick operation to install a prosthesis.
