Laser-Lok®
microchannels
Engineered to
Laser-Lok®
soft-tissue attachment
Laser-Lok microchannels are designed to create a soft-tissue seal1, stabilize the bone and gingiva2,3 and drive long-term implant success.4
engineering meets science
SEAL
Laser-Lok microchannels are designed to establish a soft-tissue seal,1 reducing bacterial infiltration and inhibiting peri-implantitis.2
- Barrier to bacteria – Defend against infection4
- Impedes periimplantitis – Inhibits epithelial downgrowth4, 3
STABILIZE
Engineered for lasting integration, Laser-Lok is designed to stabilize soft tissue and crestal bone, minimizing long-term bone loss.
- Shorter healing time versus competitors1
- Promotes osseointegration for better outcomes2
- Less probing depth,3 less bleeding5
SUCCEED
Backed by decades of clinical research, Laser-Lok implants deliver predictable, long-term success and higher patient satisfaction.1
- Predictable tissue response6
- Successful outcomes7
- Can lead to fewer complications and patient satisfaction1
what doctors are saying
Hom-Lay Wang
DDS, MSD, PhD
"It’s actually a true attachment. It can prevent peri-implantitis. That is unique."
Gerhard Iglhaut
DDS, PhD
"If we mimic nature we are on a very good track."
Ali Tunkiwala
DDS, MSD, PhD
"The entire technology of Laser-Lok is indispensable to our success."
clinical solutions
Exclusively from BioHorizons, Laser-Lok is the only surface treatment shown to attract a true, physical connective tissue attachment. Laser-Lok is a series of precision-engineered cell-sized channels laser-machined onto the surface of dental implants and abutments.
