For four decades, OCO Biomedical maintains the position of an industry-recognized leader in constantly evolving dental implant research and development.  At the forefront of OCO’s innovative complete implant solutions approach is the patented dual stabilization line of the OCO implants. This patented process locks the implant into the surgical site with osseous fixation. As a result, the OCO implant can be loaded immediately or early. Once this load occurs, the unique biomechanically active design of the OCO implant allows for the micro-stimulation of bone, which has a positive effect on healing by increasing the speed of remodeling and apposition of bone around and to the implant.

OCO Biomedical, Inc. is the implant company that provides complete implant solutions allowing practitioners to effectively serve their patients while simultaneously building practice performance.
