How identification works
Read the implant top to bottom.
An implant's silhouette on a radiograph tells a story from crest to apex. Work down the three anatomical regions, and the catalog narrows to a handful of candidates.
- 1Coronal
Start at the platform
Read the implant–abutment interface — external, internal, or a unique connection — and the flange shape at the crestal bone.
- 2Mid-body
Read the thread form
Note whether the body is threaded, how it tapers, and the thread profile: V-shaped, square, buttress, or rounded.
- 3Apical
Finish at the apex
Characterize the tip — tapered, flat, curved, or open — along with any apical holes, chambers, or grooves.
