Dentsply Sirona launches Azento

Azento is a single tooth replacement solution that's reportedly highly customized to the needs and timeframe of dentists and patients, which revolutionizes the digital implant workflow by streamlining implant planning service, purchasing and delivery. Dentists will receive a precise, customized digital treatment plan based on each patient’s digital scans, with imaging systems such as the Orthophos SL and intraoral scanners like the CEREC Omnicam, submitted through a case management portal.

Azento is said to include all components and instruments necessary to complete an implant treatment, including a surgical guide, implant and custom healing abutment, delivered within five business days of approving the treatment plan. This eliminates the effort of coordinating purchases with multiple suppliers and monitoring inventory in the office.

“This streamlined workflow solution offers tangible financial and time-saving benefits by reducing administrative responsibilities, number of visits and patient chair time,” says Jo Massoels, director digital implant solutions at Dentsply Sirona. “It is designed to help dentists select the best-fitting implant, determine optimal implant positioning, healing environment and restoration for each case.”

Azento is designed to enable practices to achieve consistently excellent results thanks to the customized and prosthetically-driven treatment plan, based on each patient’s digital scans. It also includes a custom healing abutment, contouring the emergence profile and enabling a final esthetic result.

Furthermore, with Azento, dental professionals will receive custom digital treatment plans that will help communicate the procedure clearly to patients, who will also benefit from the reduced number of visits and chair time.

“The Azento team supports me in planning a truly restorative driven implant placement, reducing the risk of complications, ensuring accuracy and producing excellent results,” says Dr. Daniel Butterman, a dental surgeon in Centennial, Colorado.

Azento is engineered to work with the Astra Tech Implant System^® and Xive^®. It also includes an Atlantis^® custom healing abutment and optional temporary restoration. The final restoration can be performed with Atlantis and CEREC or through an Atlantis dental lab.

Azento will be available in Canada and Europe in 2019.
