Straumann Roxolid® Implants: The new "DNA" of implant materials.
More confidence in small diameter implants
: Roxolid® and SLActive® combine high strength with excellent osseointegration to deliver more peace of mind in treatment with small diameter implants.
Flexibility of having more treatment options
: Roxolid® provides a wider choice of treatment options with small diameter implants. This can support you when choosing the optimal treatment for your patient in specific clinical situation.
Designed to increase patient’s acceptance to implant treatment
: Differentiate your practice with the benefits of small diameter implants. Roxolid® offers greater confidence when placing small diameter implants in patients.
Confidence when placing small diameter implants
Implants are exposed to high forces and need to demonstrate good osseointegration.
These factors are especially important when small diameter implants are chosen due to their reduced size.
The combination of the Roxolid® material and the SLActive® surface are designed to specifically address these two parameter.

The data have shown a better bone in-growth behavior as measured
by BATA (bone area to total area) with Roxolid® compared to Straumann’s titanium.
Flexibility of having more treatment options
When treating patients, you want to make sure to offer them the best possible solution at all times.
Therefore, you need the freedom to choose the solution you want to deliver.
Roxolid® small diameter implants offer you more treatment options when preserving existing bone and vascular supply is important.
This supports you in choosing the optimal solution for your patients in specific clinical situations.
New treatment options chosen with Roxolid® Ø 3.3 mm implants
The non-interventional study demonstrates that in 42% of the cases,
Roxolid® implants have been used where 3.3mm titanium implants
previously were not suitable.
Designed to increase patients’ acceptance of implant treatment
Patients often fear implant treatment due to pain, time, and cost. Differentiate your practice by offering Roxolid®,
a solution designed for improved patient care due to more treatment options.
Roxolid® is designed to offer greater confidence when placing small diameter implants.
Roxolid® implants can be the solution to increase patients’ acceptance of implant treatment.

High strength
Roxolid® is a homogenous metallic alloy composed of the elements titanium and zirconium.
As a result of alloying these two elements a higher tensile strength compared to pure titanium (annealed1 and cold worked2) can be achieved.
Thanks to the higher tensile strength small diameter implants can be placed with more confidence.
Biomechanical tests (fatigue strength) have been performed according to the ISO 14 801 norm.
The fatigue strength of a system is the maximum force where three systems survived at least 5 million load cycles without any fractures
1. Block in which the implant is fixed, bone resorption of 3mm is simulated
2. Axes of the block
3. Implant/abutment/crown system
4. Block which creates cyclic force on the abutment
