MagiCore Implants – The Journey to a Full Smile

Magi Core Implants are a safe and reliable alternative to bone grafting. They are designed to promote the body’s natural healing processes and provide long-term results without complications.

The Magi Core implant’s rib and fin thread flex with the same elasticity as alveolar bone, reducing the difference in elasticity and significantly lowering the risk of micro-fractures.

Reduced Inflammation Zone

MagiCore implants have a unique surface that reduces inflammation, which is the root cause of many implant complications such as bone loss and sinusitis. This is accomplished by the Magi Fin Thread that flexes with the adjacent bone, mimicking its natural elasticity to prevent micro-fractures that can lead to peri-implantitis.

The MagiCore cuff design increases initial stability, making it possible to insert the implant without lifting a flap in complex anatomical situations. It also allows for better dispersal of occlusal forces, preventing over-contraction and reducing the risk of osteoclastic activity and bone compression.

The MagiCore implant was compared to the gold standard implant Nobel Parallele (NBTM) in terms of physical properties, topographical characteristics and biological behavior in direct contact with gingival fibroblasts and osteoblast-like cells MG63. The arithmetic roughness values obtained for both implants were comparable and cell morphology was equivalent on both surfaces. In addition, Alamar BlueTM LIVE/DEAD staining revealed comparable cytocompatibility for both implants.매직코어임플란트

Minimal Osteoclastic Activity

The periosteum is the source of bone formation in the maxilla; skeletal progenitor cells proliferate within this fibrous layer to eventually become osteoblasts. Osteoblasts remodel the bone matrix to a mineralized framework that provides primary stability for implants.IBS매직코어임플란트

We found that the MC surface induced less cytotoxicity in indirect contact with gingival fibroblasts and osteoblast-like cells than the NB implant. Moreover, the MC surface exhibited a lower roughness (Ra = 2.02 m) and displayed better cell adhesion than the NB implant. Alizarin red staining demonstrated significantly enhanced calcium deposition on the MC surface compared to that of the NB implant.

On day 14, polarized light and Picrosirius red staining identified extensive new bone in the peri-implant area, which is indicative of a robust healing response (Figs. 3A, B). The new bone appeared as an extension of the peri-implant surfaces and did not display a marrow space. The source of the new bone was not identified, but it is speculated that the periosteum was injured during the surgical procedure and proliferating skeletal progenitor cells differentiated into osteoblasts to form the new bone.

Stability

MagiCore implants have physical properties similar to those of the bone os alveolaire, thus reducing the risk of micro-fractures, and the Magic Fin thread disperses forces occlusal during insertion, avoiding bone compression. The cuff design also increases the initial stability of Magic Core Implants, preventing abutment fracture and screw loosening.

Implant surface characterization was performed with an optical profilometer (Altimet Altisurf500, Phenix V2 software, ALTIMET, Thonon-les-Bains) and a sessile drop test. The arithmetic roughness average (Ra) was evaluated on five samples of each implant.

Implant insertion was carried out in the basal/cortical bone in order to reduce inflammatory reactions. A CBCT study was then performed to evaluate primary and secondary stability of the implants after 2 months of healing. The Mann-Whitney test showed significant differences between groups (P=0.000) for both primary and secondary stability. The authors would like to thank Ana-Maria Trunfio-Sfarghiu, Antoinette Dupont, Denis Ressnikoff and Laurent Auvray (Center Technologique des Microstructures), and Victor Vuillet-A-Ciles and Jean-Marie Deschamps (Center d’Imagerie Quantitative Lyon-Est) of the University Claude Bernard Lyon 1 for their assistance with the SEM and CLSM studies respectively.

Long-Term Success

The implant process can seem intimidating and overwhelming initially. However, breaking it down into manageable segments reveals that the journey to a full smile is straightforward and rewarding.

Bone grafting is essential to provide an even base for an implant, and it takes time to heal and mature. In the meantime, patients should follow their surgeon’s guidelines and stay in touch. Any signs of complications should be flagged immediately so they can be addressed.

MagiCore implants were engineered to flex with the same elasticity of the surrounding bone. This matching elasticity reduces stress to the alveolar bone and significantly decreases micro-fractures.

MagiCore’s thin machined neck allows it to be placed without raising a flap. This means that it can be used in more anatomical situations and patients with thin crestal bone. Furthermore, MagiCore’s fin thread produces minimal shearing force, which is important for avoiding bone compression.
