CLINICAL
STUDIES
A WELL DOCUMENTED IMPLANT SYSTEM
There is general agreement between clinicians that the scientific documen-
tation of an implant system reflects the engagement of a company in research
and science.When selecting themost appropriate treatment, long-termclinical
data represent a reference in terms of confidence not only for the user but
also for the patient. A large number of clinical studies have been performed
documenting the CAMLOG
®
Implant System with its Promote
®
surface in
several indications and loading modalities. Results have been published in
peer-reviewed journals or presented at congresses. Long-term results with
follow-up controls between four and a half years and seven years have been
documented in studies with more than 11,000 implants (Tab. 6). They have
confirmed excellent implant survival and success rates between 97.8 to
99.8%.
