The new two-piece PURE implant on the other hand, has the standard characteristic of an implant body with an interface for attaching restorative components.

New Variobase® Abutment
For the two-piece version of the PURE implant Straumann® created a new type of Variobase® abutment that by design is completely hidden beneath the crown.
This allows you to achieve a more seamless look between the interface of the implant and the crown than would be possible with a typical abutment. This is especially useful in patients with a thinner mucosal biotype. Because the metal is completely incapsulated inside the restoration, it’s also well suited for patients with metal allergies.
New ZLA Surface
All of the PURE implants have what Straumann® calls the ZLA surface which has a topography of macro and micro roughness similar to the SLA surface on their titanium implants. In preclinical studies, the ZLA surface exhibited healing and osseointegration properties similar to the SLA surface and a recent clinical trial showed a 97.5% survival and success rate after three years. 1
Every single Straumann® PURE implant is also mechanically tested at the production site. During the testing – forces in excess of maximum jaw strength are applied to the implant and only the implants that pass are made available for sale.
The two-piece PURE is only available in a 4.1 mm diameter as opposed to the monotype which is available in both 3.3 and 4.1 diameters.
The crown complete conceals the abutment
PURE works well for patients with a thin mucosal biotype or for those with metal allergies.

The PURE ZLA surface has similar benefits to the SLA micro surface
SCS Driver Compatible
And finally, you may be relieved to learn that you don’t need any new restorative drivers for these as the screws do use the same SCS screwdriver.
