Implant Direct's open full-arch solutions are engineered to solve the most significant challenges facing today’s dental professional: 

 

  • Complexity of full-arch procedures
  • High cost of proprietary systems
  • Need for a predictable digital workflow 

DIRECTarch™ and DIRECTscan™ are designed to transform your implant practice, allowing you to streamline procedures, elevate patient outcomes, and significantly improve your profitability with lower over-head and the adaptability of our lines into your existing workflows.

Unlocking the Power of a fully open Digital Workflow 

 

The future of full-arch implantology is digital, but a closed system shouldn't be your only option. Our solutions are built on a fully open system, seamlessly integrating with your existing technology. This empowers you to work within your preferred digital workflow.

  • Seamless Integration: Our DIRECTscan™ adapter and digital libraries are fully compatible with popular platforms like 3Shape and exocad, allowing you to use your current intraoral scanner for a smooth, continuous workflow from diagnosis to final restoration.
  • Total Flexibility: From guided surgery to photogrammetry, our systems support a wide range of digital capabilities to simplify your path to an outstanding final prosthesis. This open approach means you can invest in the technology that works for you without a costly overhaul.

Engineered for Clinical Confidence 

 

Precision is the foundation of every successful full-arch case. Our solutions are designed to ensure surgical accuracy and restorative predictability, giving you the confidence to tackle even complex full-arch rehabilitations.

DIRECTscan™ Adapter

 

Traditional intraoral scanning for full-arch cases can be challenging due to a lack of reference points and the risk of alignment issues. The DIRECTscan™ adapter overcomes this with a unique horizontal shape and individual markings that facilitate a continuous scanning process, providing average accuracy within 10 microns for a passive-fitting prosthesis.

DIRECTarch™ Multi-Unit Abutment 

 

Our comprehensive full-arch solution features a universal multi-unit abutment platform that streamlines surgical and restorative procedures, simplifying inventory management and enabling you to complete a full-arch restoration on a single platform. The angulated screw channel (ASC) and gold-anodized final cylinder offer both surgical flexibility and superior esthetics.

Before I found Simply Iconic, my stockroom was full of parts and pieces to manage multiple implant platforms. I just felt like there had to be a better way. I can now do a full arch restoration on a single platform!” — Dr. Rita Snyder DMD, Harborview Dental

A Clear Path to Practice Profitability 

 

High-value procedures like full-arch restorations can be a significant profit center for your practice. Our solutions are designed to enhance this profitability by minimizing costs and maximizing efficiency.

  • Reduce Overhead: Our DIRECTscan™ adapter can save you up to 70% compared to other photogrammetry solutions, reducing overall case costs and allowing you to offer a high-quality solution at a more competitive price point.
  • Efficient Workflow: Our streamlined, all-in-one packaging and simplified systems control the complexity of parts and pieces you need to manage. This efficiency translates directly into reduced chair time and a more productive practice.
  • Clinically Proven Quality: With a reputation for providing "affordable implants of good quality, without compromising their power and precision," our products are backed by a stringent U.S.-based quality assurance process, medical-grade titanium alloys, and key certifications like FDA Approval and CE Certification.

Our more than 10 million implants placed worldwide serve as a testament to their quality and reliability.

FAQs About ARCHflow and DIRECTarch MUAs

    What is unique about the DIRECTarch solution?

    The DIRECTarch solution is a comprehensive system designed to streamline and simplify the placement of full-arch dental prosthetics. Its uniqueness lies in its all-in-one approach, which integrates a multi-unit abutment (MUA), a specialized digital workflow (ARCHflow), and a prosthetic arch. This combination simplifies the process, reduces chair time, and enhances the precision of full-arch restorations.

    What are the clinical indications for this solution?

    The DIRECTarch solution is clinically indicated for edentulous and soon-to-be edentulous patients who require a full-arch dental restoration. It is suitable for cases where immediate loading is planned and where a stable, screw-retained prosthesis is desired.

    What are the clinical indications for DIRECTarch MUA?

    The DIRECTarch Multi-Unit Abutment (MUA) is indicated for use in conjunction with dental implants for screw-retained, full-arch prostheses. Its primary clinical indications include cases requiring a streamlined and precise method for connecting the final restoration to the implants, particularly in situations where implant angulation varies.

    What are the main benefits of using the DIRECTarch MUA?

    The main benefits of using the DIRECTarch MUA include: 

    • Simplified Workflow: It streamlines the process of full-arch restorations, reducing the number of components and clinical steps.
    • Enhanced Precision: The design and accompanying digital workflow (ARCHflow) ensure a highly accurate fit for the final prosthesis.
    • Reduced Chair Time: The efficient system helps to minimize the time patients spend in the dental chair.
    • Improved Aesthetics: The low-profile design allows for a more natural-looking emergence profile and better soft tissue management.
    • Flexibility: It accommodates a range of implant angulations, providing greater flexibility in surgical planning.

    What tools are required when following the ARCHflow workflow?

    The ARCHflow workflow is a digital process that utilizes a specific set of tools for optimal results. These typically include: 

    • A high-quality intraoral or laboratory scanner for digital impressions.
    • The ARCHflow digital planning software.
    • A compatible milling machine or 3D printer for fabricating the final prosthesis.
    • The DIRECTarch MUA and associated prosthetic components.

    What are the key differences between the new DIRECTarch MUA versus the legacy DIRECTarch MUA?

    The new DIRECTarch MUA features several key advancements over the legacy version, including:

    • Improved Design: A more streamlined, lower-profile design for better soft tissue integration and aesthetics.
    • Enhanced Material: Often made from advanced materials with improved strength and biocompatibility.
    • Simplified Connection: A more intuitive and secure connection to the implant and prosthetic components.
    • Optimized Dimensions: Revised dimensions to improve fit and simplify the prosthetic workflow.

    What are the advantages of the new DIRECTarch MUA design?

    The new DIRECTarch MUA design offers several advantages, such as: 

    • Superior Aesthetics: The lower profile allows for a more natural emergence and better gum tissue health.
    • Increased Durability: Enhanced material and design improve the long-term stability and strength of the restoration.
    • Ease of Use: A simplified design and improved connection mechanism make the clinical procedure more straightforward and efficient.
    • Better Patient Comfort: The refined design can lead to a more comfortable and less bulky final prosthesis for the patient.

    What differentiates the ARCHflow digital workflow from other components/ecosystems on the dental market?

    The ARCHflow digital workflow is differentiated by its seamless, integrated approach specifically for full-arch restorations. Unlike other systems that may require a mix-and-match of components from different manufacturers, ARCHflow provides a cohesive ecosystem from digital impression to final prosthetic delivery. This ensures compatibility, reduces potential errors, and creates a more predictable and efficient outcome for both the clinician and the patient.
