Meeting the need with innovation and expertise

Southern Implants was established in 1987 to develop, manufacture and distribute dental implants. Southern Implants has been a pioneer in this field over the last two decades and has contributed extensively to ongoing enhancements with respects to osseointegration of implant devices, surgical techniques, patient education and options for treatment.

The company is focused on the top-end specialist sector of the implant market. The product range is continually being expanded to incorporate the newest technologies and trends. Where many of our competitors are rationalizing their product range, Southern is offering more choices.

The implants are made from ASTM-F67-95 Grade 4 pure titanium, with a tensile strength of 550 MPa. The surface is enhanced with abrasion and chemical conditioning. The surface has been proven by way of extensive animal and clinical trials and has been in use for more than 16 years.

It is Southern Implants’ expertise in research, development and manufacturing of dental implants that allows us to provide innovative solutions for your everyday challenges. It is Southern Implants’ dedication and commitment to superior service that allows us to support you in providing the highest standard of care.
