ITI Dental Implant Compatibility

[lilshow1255]

Is iti implant compatible with straumann bonelevel nc/rc? The implant has a purple strip. The scan body for the rc seems to fit but I just wanted to make sure it is compatible. Thanks for any help.

There is no such thing as an ITI implant. I think what you are looking at is a RC Bone level analog from Straumann.

ITI stands for International Team for Implantology and is a fantastic group to belong to based out of Switzerland.

This is the only info I could find. Says it's an implant system.

What you are looking at is a knock off of the Tissue level RN implant. The real Straumann analog would have a red stripe around it. I would use original Straumann parts if possible.

We commonly refer to Straumann implants as ITI because of that.
ITI does not make implant itself.
Both the Tissue level and Bone level implants are Straumann manufactured implants, including the old hollow baskets.
