OCO Biomedical’s gateway to complete implant dentistry solutions


The 3.0 and ISI One-Piece Implant System Prior to 2002, when implant dentistry practitioners were confronted with the challenges of patients who had single or several missing teeth, removable prosthetics and/or compromised bone quality, the choices were limited to using small diameter implants similar in design to wood screws.

OCO Biomedical Inc. founder and inventor, David D. Dalise, DDS, responded to these challenges by creating and introducing the revolutionary, one-piece 3.0 mm immediately stabilizing implant. He developed trend-setting, patented protocols, procedures, and technology to provide simple, affordable, and almost pain-free implant solutions.

After the clinically proven success of the 3.0, which incorporated orthopedic biomedical engineering principles to provide greater stabilization using shorter devices, the dental industry’s perception of implant placement and performance was transformed. This transformation was due to the unprecedented stability and innovative immediate-load characteristics of this implant. 140901 Dalise 01

Dalise then further developed and advanced the 3.0’s properties, i.e., wider diameter implants with the same characteristics and functionality; thus, the introduction of the one-piece ISI 3.25 mm, 4 mm, and 5 mm diameter implants. Being a one-piece configuration confirmed the patented claims of the system being designed for immediate or early loading. The two-piece TSI and ERI implant lines followed to accommodate different areas and provide for a wide variety of abutments to satisfy clinician preferences and various clinical situations.

For the bone-level practitioner, the Engage™ implant line was developed. These implants have all the initial stability characteristics of the ISI, TSI, and ERI lines less the Embedded Tapered Platform™. The platform-switched design uses the universal internal hex implant/abutment interface and offers unchallenged initial stability with the option of immediate or early loading after most placements.

Features and benefits of the 3.0 mm and the ISI One-Piece Implant System
Innovative, clinically tested, patented implant design with an unprecedented success rate
The Machined Embedded Tapered Platform™ is titanium-nitride coated for the best possible esthetic outcome and hygiene

Proprietary SLA surface treatment is applied to the superior strength Ti-TAL4V ELI titanium alloy
Simple, flapless placement protocols that enable the patient to receive an implant, final impression, and a temporary crown in one office visit, thus eliminating the need for multiple return appointments
Implant of choice by dentists throughout the USA: The 3.0 mm Mini, selected as one of the Top 25 Implant Products by Dentistry Today (June 2014) for small interdental spaces or denture stabilization

The Technology

The Bullnose Auger™ Tip pulls bone up and around the tip of the implant; thus, condensing it around the apex with tension. At the same time, the Embedded Tapered Platform™, with a diameter greater than the body of the implant, extends down through the cortical bone at the crest. This creates further tension throughout the length of the implant affecting exceptional initial stability, effectively creating dual stabilization. In orthopedic terms, this would be considered “osseous fixation.” This technology allows predictable, flapless, direct procedures because the Embedded Tapered Platform™ overcomes irregular bone-level situations at the crest of the ridge.
