The implant system with exceptional versatility for universal use
The NobelParallel Conical Connection is straightforward in design and application. It offers extraordinary flexibility that you'll appreciate whether you're an experienced clinician or new to implantology. The well-documented implant body provides high primary stability and allows for universal use in all bone qualities and a wide range of indications.
Cover the majority of your cases with only one implant system - no matter if you're placing implants in the anterior or posterior region1,2,6 or treating single tooth, multiple-teeth or full-arch restorations.1,2,3,4,5,6,7
The well-documented implant body is designed for universal use in all bone qualities and a wide range of indications.1,2,3
The surgical protocol in combination with the implant design (TiUnite surface, threads from tip to platform and the tapered apex) are all designed to provide high primary stability and support the Immediate Function protocol.1,4 The NobelParallel Conical Connection apex design also allows for bi-cortical anchorage to obtain high primary stability in cases of reduced bone density.5
A limited number of drills ensures a straightforward surgical protocol that can be flexibly used in different bone densities.
Take advantage of innovative solutions available only for Nobel Biocare's conical connection. These include the cement-free NobelProcera ASC (angulated screw channel) Abutment and the NobelProcera FCZ (full-contour zirconia) Implant Crown. Experience the unique pick-up function of the Omnigrip tooling and its incredible grip on the screw.
The advanced internal conical connection with hexagonal interlocking offers high mechanical strength.
NobelParallel Conical Connection supports the comprehensive range of NobelProcera CAD/CAM dental prosthetics as well as Nobel Biocare's full range of prefabricated abutments.
NobelParallel Conical Connection features a dual-function prosthetic connection with internal conical connection for abutment-supported restorations as well as an implant shoulder for unique NobelProcera Implant Bridges in titanium and zirconia.

"I have been impressed with NobelParallel Conical Connection. The drill protocol is straightforward and the implant performs well in all bone qualities. I have found that NobelParallel Conical Connection provides excellent primary stability, making it a good implant choice for different indications."
Dr. Sascha Jovanovic, Periodontist and Academic Chairman, gIDE Institute, Los Angeles, USA.
"It's an amazing implant. It has a pointed apex and parallel walls, which makes it perfect for thin crest and very soft bone. (...) We can go for bi-cortical anchorage, and that makes a huge difference when you are going for Immediate Function, especially in the posterior maxilla".
Dr. Ana Ferro, Malo Clinic, Lisbon, Portugal
"It's a versatile implant, which allows for lots of indications".
Dr. Claude Authelain, Oral surgeon, Strasbourg, France
"We've seen that the implant is very very stable, it's excellent to use in very soft bone as well as hard bone. It's very easy to use, so it's an ideal dental implant for beginners."
Dr. Giorgio Tabanella, Periodontist, Rome, Italy
"Impressive performance in fresh extraction sockets, easy to use and to achieve the proper primary stability for the immediate loading procedures. An implant design that enhances the minimally invasive surgical approach and meets the biology of bone and soft tissue."
Dr. Alessandro Pozzi, Prosthodontist, Rome, Italy
"I believe this new NobelParallel Conical Connection offers a very universal implant. We have the benefits of the internal connection and yet not compromising the primary stability. To me this a very user-friendly implant, which is applicable in most areas of the mouth".
Dr. David Dunn, gIDE - Global Institute for Dental Education, Sydney, Australia
