INSTRUMENT FOR MEASURING IMPLANT STABILITY

From Neoss website:

"Neoss Limited, a UK based, global dental implant company, have announced the launch of the Neoss PenguinRFA instrument for measuring implant stability.

Neoss Limited, a UK based, global dental implant company, have announced the launch of the Neoss

PenguinRFAinstrument for measuring implant stability.

Fredrik Engman, Neoss CTO, commented “In implant dentistry, patient expectations and an evolving

range of indications places high demands on the clinical team, so if conditions are not optimal, poor

primary stability may increase the risk of implant failure. Resonance Frequency Analysis (RFA) and the

Implant Stability Quotient (ISQ) were introduced into the dental implant industry in 2001 and are now

established methods of measuring implant stability and osseointegration.”

Guy Leaver, Neoss CFO, added “Neoss in partnership with Integration Diagnostics, has today launched

the Neoss PenguinRFA, and in keeping with Neoss’ philosophy of ‘Intelligent Simplicity’ the Penguin is

easy and quick to use, offering a consistently reliable measurement of implant stability at a completely

different value proposition. This finally enables clinical use of the RFA technique in daily practice.”

The Neoss PenguinRFAsystem is the result of research and development by a dedicated team of dental

implant experts and engineers. Their experience, expertise and close relations with specialists across the

world has been instrumental in creating a product that offers new levels of clinical excellence.

The Neoss PenguinRFA system is the result of research and development by a dedicated team of dental implant experts and engineers. Their experience, expertise and close relations with specialists across the world has been instrumental in creating a product that offers new levels of clinical excellence.

The Neoss PenguinRFA system measures the resonance frequency of the MulTipeg™, which corresponds to the stability of the implant. The measurement scale is from 1 to 99 ISQ (Implant Stability Quotient). The ISQ value correlates strongly to the micro mobility of the implant, which in turn depends on bone quality and osseointegration.

The Neoss PenguinRFA system consists of a hand-held instrument and a reusable MulTipeg™. A charger is delivered together with the instrument as well as a driver for attaching the MulTipeg™ to the implant.

It offers treatment guidance and predictability and is an easy-to-use and affordable solution for all clinicians working with implants.

• Hand-held instrument with single key operation

• Long-lasting rechargeable batteries

• Reusable and autoclavable MulTipeg™ in titanium

• Reusable and autoclavable MulTipeg™ Driver in stainless steel
