When these elements are thoughtfully considered during assessment of implant systems, the risk of inflammation and bone loss around implants can be meaningfully reduced.
Most implant companies advocate for subcrestal placement to avoid exposure of the rough surface, rather than design the implant with a smooth collar, sacrificing good bone, complicating cleanability, and compromising a proper emergence profile.
At Paragon, our product development reflects these clinical realities. Our implant systems incorporate:
1. A machined-anodized collar design, providing vertical flexibility and reducing the risk of exposure, which can be particularly advantageous when managing uneven ridges
2. Six implant diameters and two color-coded platform diameters to reduce the emergence angle improving cleanability
3. Fully tapered implants that increase stability and facilitate placement of shorter implants rather than angled implants that require angle correcting abutments which are difficult to clean
By minimizing rough surface exposure in the collar region, this design supports healthier soft-tissue interaction, reduces plaque accumulation, and facilitates improved hygiene access—key factors in peri-implantitis prevention.
In addition, Paragon implants are engineered with:
- Optimized implant–abutment connections designed to reduce micro-movement and bacterial infiltration
- Surface technologies that promote predictable osseointegration while respecting crestal bone and soft-tissue stability
- Prosthetic solutions focused on restorative accuracy and long-term maintenance
