ARDS Implants – Company's profile

ARDS was established by Dr. Uri Arny and deals with the development, manufacturing and marketing of dental implants. ARDS’s guiding philosophy has inspired the company to develop a unique drilling technique which causes minimum damage to the bone and maximizes the initial stabilization of the implants in it.

ARDS retains a number of international patents regarding-

1. The shape of the implant's surface.
2. A drilling technique which preserves bone.
3. Unique implants designed for thin ridges.

ARDS’s aspiration for perfection is conveyed in the following ways-

1. Shortening the healing phase - immediate implant after extraction.
2. The system enables the use of implants also in problematic areas.
3. Making the implant process simple to assign. (User friendly).

The main advantages of ARDS drilling and implant process:

1. Reduces the amount of drilled bone.
2. Unique design of the implant increases the bone-implant contact in the surgery phase(in comparison with other implants of the same diameter) thus stabilizes the implant and shortens the process of bone- implant integration.
3. ARDS's drilling method and the shape of it’s implant causes a compression of the spongyosal bone around the apical part of the implant during its insertion. Dispersing the forces along the entire implant and not only at its upper part as in common implants held at the cortical bone at the end of the implantation.
4. The drilling method enables precise control over the placement and shape of the bore hole. This is made possible by the usage of leading pins which direct the drill at the suitable angle throughout the process and stabilize it also in thin ridges.

ARDS’s main office and marketing management are situated at Rishon-Le-Zion, Israel. All manufacturing and packing supervised processes are done at the production plant situated at the industrial park of Teffen, Israel. ARDS also markets super structures and bone substitutes, thus expanding the variety of solutions dentists can offer their patients.

External Surface

The required durable stabilization of the implant in the bone needs oseointegration. In order to intensify the osseointegration two processes are required: The first is blasting the implant surface with small parts of silica which is not attached to the titanium surface so it leaves it pure. The second stage is etching the surface with organic acids which create the final micro pores of the surface and at the same time constitute the first cleaning stage of the surface area.

Type of Titanium

ARDS implants are composed of medical titanium alloy Ti-6 AL-4V which retains all the manufacturers' regulations.

Manufacturing

All ARDS implants and reconstruction parts are manufactured at the company's production plant, situated at the industrial park of Teffen in the north part of Israel. The plant contains quality control system and regulations of the highest required level with the approvals of ISO 9001 of European body CE, Israeli AMAR and American FDA.
