The Straumann TLX implant is designed for immediate protocols in all bone types with a fully tapered implant body for optimised primary stability and perfectly complements our bone level BLX implant system. Both systems use one common drill set and TorcFit connection for maximum compatibility with minimal investment. This connection supports self-guiding insertion, for clear-cut tactile feedback. Six positions enable a simple yet flexible alignment and out- standing protection against rotation. All TLX Implants have the same inner geometry regardless of the diameter of the implant. This allows the use of the same implant driver for all implants.

The Straumann TLX Implants are made from the material Roxolid with the SLActive surface and are available in the maximum endosteal outer diameters ∅ 3.75 mm, ∅ 4.5 mm, ∅ 5.5 mm and ∅ 6.5 mm, with length options from 6 mm to 18 mm for the maximum endosteal outer diameter ∅ 3.75 mm and ∅ 4.5 mm, and 6 mm to 12 mm for diameters ∅ 5.5 mm and ∅ 6.5 mm.

A unified colour code simplifies identification of instruments and implants for the available maximum endosteal outer diameters. The Straumann TLX implants are available with either a 1.8 mm shoulder (standard plus―SP) or with a 2.8 mm shoulder (standard―S).

The Straumann TLX prosthetic components are identified with NT (Narrow TorcFit with one dot), RT (Regular TorcFit with two dots) and WT (Wide TorcFit with three dots), corresponding to the implant shoulder diameters of ∅ 3.5 mm, ∅ 4.8 mm and ∅ 6.5 mm respectively.
