The Apliquiq is an ergonomic conditioning system that generates the INICELL superhydrophilic implant surface immediately before a dental implant is inserted. The surface chemistry of the micro-rough implant surface is slightly modified in order to improve wettability. This promotes a complete wetting of the implant with physiological fluids such as blood, which guarantees higher implant stability and safety in the early healing phase. Easy handling is fostered by the well-defined wings, and an integrated reservoir for storing liquid is a distinctive feature, one example of a functional and well-thought-out design concept.
