Implants by Country: Brand Map in the CAD Library Catalog

A CAD library catalog is essentially a map of global implantology. Understanding which implants by country are represented in the database is useful for both the technician and the surgeon: the manufacturer defines the connection type, the platform protocol and compatibility with Ti-Base (titanium base). The DentalLibs catalog holds 1271 libraries for exoplan and 1058 for the exocad implant module, plus 187 sets for RealGUIDE. Behind these numbers stand dozens of brands from Korea, Brazil, Italy, Switzerland, Israel and the USA.

Below is a regional overview: where the system is made, which product lines appear most often, and what to look for when selecting a library.

Implants by Country: How to Read the Brand Map

The manufacturer's geography is not the same as compatibility. Two brands from different countries can share one connection type (for example, the conical Morse taper), while within a single country systems are often incompatible with each other. That is why it is convenient to read the brand map in two layers: first the country and manufacturer, then the platform and connection geometry.

Most systems in the catalog are covered both for surgical planning (exoplan, RealGUIDE) and for prosthetics (exocad implant module) — this matters if you run a case from the guided surgery template to the final crown on a single dataset.

Korean Implants: Osstem, Dentium, DIO, Megagen

Korea is one of the most densely represented regions. Here Osstem (TS, SS, GS lines), Dentium (Implantium, SuperLine) and DIO with its extensive UF II family dominate. From the premium segment come Megagen (AnyOne, AnyRidge with progressive thread) and Neobiotech.

Korean systems are more often built on an internal conical connection with a hex (internal hex), which allows good platform switching. For many of them the catalog has both analog libraries and Ti-Base of various heights.

• Osstem — TS III, SS, GS; often the "implant + Ti-Base" pairing is needed
• Dentium — Implantium and SuperLine, compatible prosthetics
• DIO — UF II, wide coverage of diameters and platforms
• Megagen — AnyRidge/AnyOne, conical connection
• Hiossen — Osstem's American brand, listed separately

Brazilian Systems: Neodent, S.I.N., Conexão

Brazil is a large market with strong homegrown brands. The main one is Neodent (part of the Straumann Group), with the GM (Grand Morse) and CM lines. Alongside come S.I.N. Implant System, Conexão and Implacil.

Brazilian systems are characterized by a conical Morse taper connection with indexing. When selecting a library, pay attention to the connection generation — for example, with Neodent it is important not to confuse CM and GM, as these are different platform protocols and different Ti-Base.

Switzerland and Europe: Straumann, Nobel, Italian Brands

The Swiss-Scandinavian block is primarily Straumann (Bone Level, BLX, TLX, synOcta and TorcFit connections) and Nobel Biocare (NobelActive, NobelParallel, NobelReplace, N1). Both systems are covered in detail in separate catalog materials, including the decoding of Roxolid, SLA/SLActive and Loxim markings.

Italian manufacturers are also widely represented from Europe: Sweden & Martina, Leone, C-Tech, BTK. Germany and neighboring countries add Camlog, Bredent (SKY) and Dentsply Sirona (Astra Tech EV, Ankylos, Xive) — a line with its own CAD set, Atlantis.

European systems vary in connections: from the classic conical of Straumann BL to the tri-lobe (tri-lobe/trichannel) of a number of Nobel lines. This directly affects the choice of library and compatible Ti-Base.

Israel and the USA: MIS, Alpha-Bio, BioHorizons, Zimmer

Israel is a strong source of mass-market conical systems: MIS (C1, V3, SEVEN), Alpha-Bio Tec, Adin (Touareg) and Cortex. These brands are popular in high-volume protocols, including All-on-4/All-on-6, and are well covered by both surgical and prosthetic libraries.

The USA is represented by BioHorizons, Zimmer Biomet (including the historic Zimmer TSV connection), Glidewell (Inclusive/Hahn), Keystone (Prima) and Implant Direct (owned by Nobel). Here you find both the internal hex and the conical seating — there is no single standard.

• MIS — conical C1/V3, wide coverage in exoplan
• Alpha-Bio Tec — affordable systems for high-volume cases
• BioHorizons — internal cone, stable prosthetics
• Zimmer Biomet — TSV and newer platforms

How to Choose a Library by Country and Platform

The country sets the search direction, but four parameters help assemble a correct case. Check them in sequence so you do not download an incompatible set.

• Brand and line — the exact name from the packaging (for example, Osstem TS III)
• Platform — NP/RP/WP or the connection diameter in mm
• Connection type — conical, hex or tri-lobe
• Ti-Base and gingival height — for the specific screw-retained protocol
• FDA marking availability — if required for your region

For template planning it is important to match the implant system with the sleeve library, and for prosthetics — to make sure the chosen Ti-Base matches the implant by platform. All the listed brands are available in the DentalLibs catalog with a breakdown by the exoplan, exocad implant module and RealGUIDE programs.
