Genesis, The Biomimetic Implant System™

For dental surgeons and patients looking for natural, immediate function and long-term aesthetics, the Genesis Implant System offers advanced design made simple.

Designed for Immediate Function

Primary Stability

Dual thread design provides immediate function and optimizes insertion torque in all bone types:

  • Micro threads minimize pressure on the cortical bone while providing primary stability
  • Aggressive macro threads offer initial mechanical stability especially in soft bone
  • Apical cutting flutes create space and release pressure during insertion
  • Anchor flute design further secures implant by providing resistance to reverse torque

Secondary Stability

The Biomimetic surface of Genesis mimics the chemistry of bone1

  • BioSpark™, a proprietary anodic spark deposition (ASD) process, produces a charged macro-micro-nano textured surface
  • The hydrophilic surface is enriched with charged calcium and phosphorous ions to stimulate cellular metabolic activity and osteoblast proliferation4,5
  • The implant surface design is similar to natural bone, helping stimulate early fibronectin absorption while enhancing adhesion, proliferation and differentiation of osteoblasts6
  • The BioSpark surface facilitates faster osseointegration as compared to macro-micro textured titanium surfaces*

* The BioSpark™ surface facilitates faster osseointegration, as demonstrated by significant bone-to-implant-contact (BIC) in the cortical bone of sheep** at 4 weeks compared to machined or blasted titanium2,3, and as further supported by in vitro studies4-6, which yielded the following individual results:

  • Significant increase in cellular metabolic activity over 1 to 7 days in simulated body fluid on cp-Ti disks treated with BioSpark when compared to machined titanium.4
  • Significant increase in osteoblast proliferation over 1 to 3 days on cp-Ti disks treated with BioSpark when compared to machined or acid etched titanium.5
  • Early fibronectin absorption and enhanced adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation of osteoblasts at 24, 48 and 72 hours on cp-Ti disks treated with BioSpark when compared to other anodic spark deposition (ASD) surfaces.6

** Results in animal studies are not necessarily predictive of human clinical results.

Critical Characteristics of an Advanced Surface Design

The hydrophilic surface of Genesis attracts blood to the site. This helps stimulate angiogenesis—a critical factor for endosseous healing— which provides vital nutrients and growth factors to the healing implant site.

During healing, fibronectin attracts and promotes binding of osteoblasts. The preferential absorption of fibronectin on the BioSpark surface may account for the enhanced adhesion, proliferation and metabolic activity of osteoblasts.6

Compared to traditional macro-rough surfaces, the Genesis macro-micro-nano surface increases osteoblast adhesion.

Charged calcium and phosphorous ions in the Genesis nanotexture fuel osteoblast activity. P ions stimulate osteoblasts triggering bone formation while Ca ions promote bone mineralization.

The nanostructure surrounding the charged ions forms a micromechanical bond between the newly formed bone and the implant.

Unparalleled Confidence

The predictability of Genesis means our Smile Trust Warranty (PDF) begins on day one. It’s also the only lifetime dental implant warranty to include compensation toward lab fees and the implanting surgeon’s time.
