Astra Tech / OsseoSpeed® EV — Aesthetic-Zone Specialist

Astra Tech OsseoSpeed® Profile EV (now part of Dentsply Sirona) is engineered for aesthetic-zone implant cases. Sloped marginal preservation, fluoride-modified surface, and natural soft-tissue contours. Hotel and transfer arranged.

Astra Tech (now part of Dentsply Sirona, USA) is one of the four major premium implant brands worldwide, with particular strength in aesthetic-zone implant cases — front teeth where every detail of the result is visible. WeCare Antalya places Astra Tech OsseoSpeed® Profile EV implants for cases that benefit from the brand's specific design philosophy.

What Astra Tech Does Differently

Three specific design features distinguish Astra Tech from Straumann, Nobel Biocare, and Osstem:

1. OsseoSpeed® surface — Fluoride-modified titanium surface that accelerates bone integration. Different chemistry from Straumann SLActive® but similar clinical effect.

2. Conical seal connection — A friction-fit conical interface between implant and abutment that reduces micro-gaps and prevents bacterial colonisation at the implant collar. Long-term reduces peri-implantitis risk.

3. Sloped marginal design (Profile EV) — The implant collar is shaped to follow the natural slope of the bone in the aesthetic zone (typically the upper front teeth). Standard implants have a flat collar that requires bone leveling; Profile EV preserves more natural bone, leading to better gum aesthetics long-term.

When Astra Tech Is the Right Choice

We recommend Astra Tech specifically for:

  • Single front-tooth implants where aesthetics are paramount and bone preservation matters most.
  • Patients with thin gum biotype who are at higher risk of long-term gum recession around implants.
  • Periodontitis-prone patients — the conical seal connection reduces bacterial micro-gaps.
  • Patients who specifically request Astra Tech based on their home dentist's recommendation.
  • For routine cases we typically use Straumann (compromised bone) or Osstem (healthy bone). For All-on-4®, Nobel Biocare. For aesthetic-zone single-tooth, Astra Tech is often the recommendation.

    Häufig gestellte Fragen

    How is Astra Tech OsseoSpeed® different from Straumann SLActive®?

    Both accelerate bone integration. SLActive® uses chemical activation and hydrophilic surface; OsseoSpeed® uses fluoride modification of the titanium oxide layer. Clinical outcomes are similar in healthy bone. SLActive® has slight edge in compromised bone; OsseoSpeed® Profile EV has slight edge in aesthetic-zone bone preservation.

    Is Dentsply Sirona the same as Astra Tech?

    Dentsply Sirona acquired Astra Tech in 2018. The Astra Tech implant line continues under the Dentsply Sirona umbrella with the same design and manufacturing standards. Many practitioners still call them "Astra Tech" colloquially.

    When should I choose Astra Tech over Straumann?

    Astra Tech Profile EV has measurable advantages for aesthetic-zone single-tooth implants where bone preservation matters most. For most other cases (compromised bone, full-arch, posterior), Straumann or Nobel Biocare are equally good or better choices.

    What is the warranty on Astra Tech?

    5-year warranty on the implant fixture (vs 10-year for Osstem and lifetime for Straumann/Nobel Biocare). Why shorter? Astra Tech's clinical data is shorter than the older Swedish brands. WeCare adds free fly-back-to-Antalya for warranty work.

    Is Astra Tech a good choice for All-on-4®?

    Possible but not optimal. All-on-4® was developed by Nobel Biocare and the original protocol uses Nobel Biocare components. Astra Tech is excellent for individual implants but typically not used for full-arch cases.

    Can my crown match my natural teeth?

    Yes. Astra Tech provides custom abutment options optimised for the aesthetic zone. The crown itself is hand-layered IPS e.max® by our master ceramist, matched to your natural tooth shade and translucency.
