How to identify an existing Straumann implant

If you need a repair and don't know which implant you have, start with records. X-rays help a dentist narrow it down, but an x-ray alone is not always conclusive.

In short
  • The clinic that placed it should have the system, size and lot number.
  • Straumann connections differ between lines (TorcFit, CrossFit, synOcta, NNC).
  • A dentist can often narrow down the system from an x-ray, but not always with certainty.

Step by step

  1. Look for an implant passport, card or packaging stickers.
  2. Contact the clinic that placed it and ask for the implant record.
  3. Bring previous x-rays to your current dentist.
  4. Your dentist can contact the manufacturer's customer service with the details.
