Older Straumann and ITI implant systems

Straumann implants go back to the ITI system of the 1990s

Straumann's FDA history goes back to 1990, with many early filings under the name 'ITI Dental Implant System', including hollow-screw and hollow-cylinder designs and synOcta prosthetics.¹ Many patients still have these implants today.

In short

Early filings: Bonefit (1990), ITI Dental Implant System (1990s–2003), synOcta prosthetics.¹
If you have an older implant, the connection type decides which parts fit.
Your clinic's records or implant passport are the most reliable way to identify it.

If you need parts for an older implant

Ask the clinic that placed it for the implant sticker or records: system, diameter, platform, lot.
Bring any old x-rays to your dentist; the shape and connection can help narrow down the system.
Ask your dentist to check with the manufacturer's customer service which components are still supported.
