BEGO attracts attention with its dental implants developed according to clinical needs and anatomical requirements. Semados® S-Line, SC/SCX, RS/RSX, and RI implants optimize dental treatment processes by providing customized solutions for each patient. Among the advantages of BEGO implants are high primary stability, efficient osseointegration thanks to TiPure Plus surface technology, and features that prevent bone loss with platform switching. Additionally, the self-tapping screw design allows for easy placement. This broad product range aims to provide patients with a reliable and efficient treatment process.
What are the Different Types of BEGO Implants?
BEGO implants offer special customizations for different clinical needs and anatomical structures, creating suitable treatment options for each patient.
-
\t
- BEGO Semados® S-Line Implants:
It is easily placed thanks to its cylindrical structure and self-tapping screw feature. It offers a wide range of options in terms of diameter and length, suitable for various indications.
-
\t
- BEGO Semados® SC/SCX Implants:
Derived from S-Line. The SC model has a machined shoulder, while the SCX model has a microstructured shoulder. It preserves bone with its platform switching feature.
-
\t
- BEGO Semados® RS/RSX Implants:
Designed with a conical shape, it provides high primary stability. The RS model has a machined design, while the RSX model has a microstructured shoulder. It is adapted for different clinical situations.
-
\t
- BEGO Semados® RI Implants:
Its conical structure increases stability in low bone density. The micro-threaded neck portion improves force distribution and supports bone preservation.
All BEGO implants are made of high-purity titanium and ensure optimal osseointegration with TiPure Plus surface technology. With these features, BEGO offers a suitable treatment experience for every patient’s needs.
How Does TiPure Plus Technology Improve BEGO Implants?
The TiPure Plus surface technology is a special surface feature that accelerates and strengthens the osseointegration process of BEGO implants. This technology optimizes the healing process by ensuring that the implant establishes a direct and stable connection with living bone. The surface, obtained through the blasting and acid treatment of Grade 4 pure titanium, offers specific porosity and high surface purity. As a result, bone cells, namely osteoblasts, quickly adhere to the implant surface and create a strong bond.
Key Features:
-
\t
- High surface purity
- Homogeneous surface topography
- Increased protein binding capacity

The high purity of the surface minimizes contaminants that could negatively affect the healing process of the implant. This makes the integration of the implant with the bone more predictable and increases the long-term success of the implant. The TiPure Plus surface technology offers patients a more durable and stable treatment by helping the implant establish a strong connection from the moment of the first contact with the bone.
What Are the Advantages of Platform Switching Design in BEGO Implants?
The platform switching design used in BEGO implants is an important innovation aimed at preserving the crestal bone in dental implant treatment. This approach minimizes micro-movement at the implant-abutment junction, preventing inflammatory cells from coming close to the bone and reducing the risk of bone loss. Especially in BEGO’s Semados® RS/RSX series, this design is implemented with an abutment structure distanced from the outer edge of the implant platform. The main advantages of the platform switching design are:
-
\t
- Bone preservation
- Reduced risk of inflammation
- Prevention of damage to the bone from micro-movements
- Long lifespan of the implant
- Increase in restoration success

How do Self-Tapping Screws Improve BEGO Implant Placement?
The self-tapping screws of BEGO implants stand out for the ease and effectiveness they provide during the implant placement process. This special screw design allows the implant to embed itself directly into the bone, eliminating the need for pre-drilling, thus reducing surgical steps. Minimizing damage to the bone and ensuring that the implant has high primary stability forms the basis for a successful osseointegration process.
The advantages of self-tapping screws are as follows:
- Reduces surgical steps
- Minimizes damage to the bone
- Does not require pre-drilling
- Offers high placement torque values
- Provides stability in soft bone areas
Research shows that the self-tapping screw design contributes to the successful positioning of the implant even in softer bone densities and achieves a higher placement torque.
What Role Does German Engineering Play in BEGO Implants?
The BEGO implant systems ensure reliability and high quality standards with German engineering. The Bremen-based company has been a leader in the industry since 1990, utilizing its experience in the production of dental implants and an innovative approach. Stringent quality control procedures are applied during the production processes, and BEGO’s implants are developed and manufactured in Germany. The precision and understanding of perfection in Germany reflect in every stage of BEGO implants. The company has also received numerous international certifications and approvals through quality management systems. Some of these certifications include:
- EN ISO 13485 quality management systems for medical devices
- EN ISO 9001 quality management systems
- European Union Medical Device Regulation (MDR) 2017/745
- MDSAP (Medical Device Single Audit Program)
These certifications support BEGO’s comprehensive efforts to ensure high standards and reliability in production. BEGO implants are packaged in clean rooms and presented to customers under high hygiene standards, which guarantees the safety and sterilization of the implants. Additionally, implants like the BEGO Semados® series offer both durability and aesthetic solutions with their self-cutting features and conical designs.
