With ZX Unity, the bredent group is launching a new, high-performance zirconia blank onto the market, designed specifically with the needs of modern dental laboratories in mind. The product launch expands the zirconia portfolio to include a cost-effective all-in-one solution covering a wide range of indications, from single-tooth to implant-supported full-arch restorations.

ZX Unity is formulated with an ultra-fine, high-performance 4Y zirconia powder. This means the material combines an end-to-end flexural strength of at least 1,100 Mpa throughout the entire blank height without any loss of translucency. This ensures exceptional reliability, even for challenging restorations.

A key feature of the new zirconia blank is its integrated multi-gradient technology. It delivers seamless colour gradients and a natural light effect, lending an impressive aesthetic appearance to both anterior and posterior regions. With a translucency of up to 48% ZX Unity is suitable for highly aesthetic, fully anatomical and partially concealed restorations.

In addition to its aesthetic properties, ZX Unity also offers decisive advantages for laboratory workflows. The blank has been isostatically compacted and impresses with excellent edge stability. Its high dimensional accuracy and process reliability ensure precise, reliable, reproducible machining in a CAD CAM process. High-quality restorations can be completed comfortably within a single day when combined with speed sintering times.

ZX Unity was developed in close cooperation with national and international experts. The aim was to create a zirconia material of material class 4Y-TZP in line with DIN EN ISO 6872 Class 5, uniting stability, aesthetics and process reliability in a single blank while making everyday laboratory work easier for the long term.

Thanks to the wide coverage of indications, ZX Unity allows dental laboratories to slim down their material inventory, minimise storage costs and streamline work processes. The zirconia blank is suitable for veneers, inlays and onlays, fully anatomical crowns and bridges, cutbacks, occlusally screwed full contour restoration (all-on-X), hybrid abutments and veneer bridges and crowns, among other items.

On launching ZX Unity onto the market, the bredent group is redefining the core of its zirconia family, offering dental laboratories a high-performance zirconia blank that unifies aesthetic quality, uncompromising stability and economic process reliability in a single product.

HELBO therapy – 35 years of experience and 15 years of strong partnership with the bredent group

Share:

Proven laser technology for modern treatment concepts

2026 marks a double anniversary for HELBO: 35 years of successful development of HELBO therapy and 15 years as part of the bredent group. These milestones chart a consistent record of success, in which anti-microbial photodynamic therapy (aPDT) has evolved from a pioneering approach into an established standard in modern dentistry. For the bredent group, this means steady advancement of a laser therapy concept that today has become established worldwide for numerous indications and continues to grow in significance.

Since 1991, HELBO has pursued a clear objective of systematically advancing microbiological therapy approaches. The focus is on anti-microbial photodynamic therapy (aPDT), a procedure that combines oxygen, light and photosensitizers to achieve selective, highly effective destruction of pathogenic microorganisms. This mechanism produces singlet oxygen, resulting in targeted damage to bacterial membranes even in deep biofilm structures.

Featured in more than 100 publications and put into clinical usage worldwide, continuous scientific validation highlights the relevance of HELBO therapy today as an evidence-based addition to established treatment protocols. It is now considered an integral part of modern therapy strategies in periodontics, implantology, endodontics and oral surgery.

Efficient. Gentle. Reliable. 
HELBO therapy adheres to a clearly structured, reproducible treatment protocol and impresses with a unique combination of effectiveness and tissue protection. The use of a low-energy laser (660 nm) enables photodynamic activation without causing thermal stress to the tissue.

The key benefits at a glance:
• Efficient germ reduction: wide-ranging efficacy against bacteria, viruses, fungi and protozoa, even in complex biofilms
• Resistance-free therapy: no promotion of antibiotic resistance, no side effects or interactions
• Minimally invasive application: painless treatment without anaesthesia, high patient acceptance
• Biological regeneration: stimulates the body’s own healing processes by means of photobiomodulation (LLLT)
• Process integration: seamless integration into existing surgical, periodontal and implant workflows

Selective staining of microbial structures also provides targeted therapy without damaging the body’s own cells, a key prerequisite for low-complication healing processes and stable long-term results.

Oral biofilm management as a systemic success factor for holistic treatment 
HELBO therapy targets oral dysbiosis as a central risk factor not only for dental diseases but also for systemic ones. Periodontal and peri-implant inflammations are directly related to systemic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases or rheumatoid arthritis.

Targeted biofilm management restores physiological balance with quantifiable effects:
• Reduced inflammatory processes
• Improved wound healing
• Reduced risk of infection
• Minimised systemic stress loads

This positions HELBO as an integral part of a prevention-oriented, holistic understanding of therapy.

 

15 years of synergy: HELBO and the bredent group 
HELBO’s integration into the bredent group in 2011 marked a strategic milestone. Since then, HELBO therapy has enriched the bredent group’s implantology portfolio, promoting the development of consistent, systemically networked treatment concepts.

The combination between implant expertise and microbiological therapy also opens entirely new perspectives:
• Optimised immediate implantation: reduced postoperative complications and improved bone quality
• Peri-implantitis management: long-term decontamination without structural damage to implant surfaces
• Surgical safety: sterile components and dependable infection control in surgical environments

These synergies reinforce the bredent group’s position as a supplier of holistic therapy solutions. Efficient, integrated and pioneering.

Biology as a basis, technology as a driver 
The double anniversary milestone is both a commitment and a vision for the future. Further development of evidence-based, minimally invasive therapy procedures remains a core component of the bredent group’s strategic direction.
This development centres on expanding biologically oriented therapy concepts, integrating digital and systemic solutions further and providing ongoing scientific validation of clinical applications. This will allow HELBO to continue setting benchmarks as a gold standard for anti-microbial precision, an engine for medical progress and a guarantee for sustainable therapy success.

Integral partnership for sustained implant success

The long-term functionality of implant-supported restorations hinges on three decisive factors: quality of the implant system, prosthetic planning and consistent aftercare. With this in mind, the bredent group is entering into a strategic co-partnership with IMPROIC®, a provider of clinically tested aftercare products for implants, and the German Association for Dental Health, Function and Aesthetics (“GZFA”). These partnerships aim to assist practice teams with standardised tools, content and products and shape the entire implantology supply chain, from initial information to the care of implant-based restorations using a patient-centred approach.

The partnership with the GZFA puts the spotlight on the pre-procedure stage, when patients start to seriously engage with their dental health. The GZFA serves as a neutral information platform for patients that provides cross-disciplinary, evidence-based information which is easy to understand on relevant topics such as implantology, function and aesthetics. This centres on digital prevention formats designed for patients to carry out their own research, provide them with clearly explained specialist information on functional and aesthetic matters, and help them in their search for qualified dental professionals.

Within this platform, the bredent group is positioned as a quality provider of implantological solutions – with its credibility built not on promotional claims but on its role as a reliable partner for sustainable, function-oriented treatment plans. This opens up a strategic communication channel that builds trust, informs patients and empowers dental practices.

Aftercare as the key to long-term success
While the GZFA assists with entering the restoration process, the partnership with IMPROIC® centres on the aftercare stage. Consistent, structured implant care is very much key to preserving implant-supported restorations – an aspect that is not sufficiently standardised in practices. IMPROIC® develops and markets high-quality aftercare products that are specifically tailored to the needs of implant patients. These include antibacterial gels and toothpastes, mouthwash suitable for implants or special care products for regeneration. These clinically validated products reduce bacterial plaque formation, thus promoting long-term preservation of healthy peri-implant structures.

Hygiene Guide for long-term care
The bredent group has also compiled the Hygiene Guide together with IMPROIC®. Designed for everyday clinical use, this practical consultation and training tool guides patients through the aftercare process systematically and provides them with personalised product recommendations, thus improving compliance and simplifying practice management. By combining products with expert guidance, aftercare becomes transparent, reproducible and effective for both the clinic and the patient alike.

Holistic brand strategy instead of individual product communication
The bredent group and its entire corporate strategy are synonymous with sustainability and a holistic approach. This is evident in elements such as integrated care concepts that combine implant systems, prosthetic solutions, digital workflows and structured plans for patient communication and aftercare. The co-branding partnerships with GZFA and IMPROIC® underscore to this objective. Implantology is not regarded as an isolated product solution but as an end-to-end treatment process – from patient information and surgical and prosthetic restoration through to long-term implant care. At its core lies an integrative, patient-centred philosophy that adds value to each stage of care, favours evidence over advertising claims and lightens the workload for clinic teams in their day-to-day communication, aftercare and consultancy work.

Availability as a quality characteristic

Ceramic solutions are becoming increasingly popular in implant restorations. Despite current supply bottlenecks on the market, bredent medical is demonstrating how this trend can be successfully implemented with reliable products and high availability – thanks to early risk management and a strategically built inventory as a core corporate strategy.

High biocompatibility, aesthetic solutions and convincing scientific evidence – the versatile benefits of zirconium implants are now well known and proven. More and more patients therefore want a metal-free implant restoration, which significantly increases the need for ceramic solutions. Combined with disrupted supply chains and limited production capacities, this creates a challenging market situation. Although this limited material availability poses a challenge for many providers, bredent medical’s zirconium implants remain immediately available, even in the current situation.

Thanks to roactive risk management, large stocks were built up at an early stage, all stock is located in Germany, ensuring the usual high quality standards – without longer waiting times!

whiteSKY – one-piece. efficiently. established.

bredent medical relies on the one-piece whiteSKY zirconium implant for ceramic solutions. It combines clinically proven possibilities for immediate restoration with high precision, excellence aesthetics, biological compatibility and material excellence. Cinicians deliberately choose whiteSKY because the one-piece system combines numerous advantages. There is no microgap and thus no weak point between the implant and abutment, and issues related to screw loosening or fractures is also eliminated. Thanks to subgingival placement, the implant shoulder remains invisible and, the absence of an occlusal screw channel allows for maximum prosthetic flexibility. In addition, immediate restoration is also possible with sufficient primary stability, reducing both treatment duration and number of visits. Two different implant types also allow individual soft tissue management, the smooth zirconium surface reduces plaque adhesion, and the high stability also convinces in difficult bone conditions. The tested material purity is tested and confirmed by CleanImplant Certification. Over 15 years of clinical experience and extensive scientific studies show that whiteSKY is not just a product, but rather a holistic therapy concept.

Backtaper & Biology – SLIM where it matters

A special USP of the whiteSKY Tissue Line implant is the so-called backtaper. This backward-conical shoulder-design creates space for soft tissue where it is biologically and functionally most important, enables stable bone integration, and promotes long-term stability of peri-implant tissue, scientifically documented and clinically validated. The concave geometry not only prevents inflammation, but also supports optimized papilla formation – a decisive advantage in the aesthetic area.

Waiting time? Not at bredent medical!

Global raw material supply bottlenecks are currently leading to delivery delays for zirconium implants across the industry. Contrary to the general trend, however, bredent medical can ensure full delivery capability. Dentists benefit from therapy security, as treatments do not have to be postponed or cancelled. For patients, this means reliable availability without any waiting times and without any loss of confidence, thanks to stable stock levels and secure supply chains. All practices benefit from maximum planning certainty with bredent medical, as all common implant diameters and lengths are available at short notice.

whiteSKY stands for pioneering implantology without compromise. As a one-piece zirconium implant, it enables biological integration, aesthetic excellence and technical safety. At a time when planning reliability and reliable availability are essential for dental practices and patients, bredent medical sets new standards: for practitioners, for patients, for quality.

The most important benefits of whiteSKY at a glance:

  • High reliability and quality: fast delivery capability thanks to extensive stocks and secure supply chains, CleanImplant certified

  • Optimal tissue integration: two implant types for the best possible soft tissue attachment and subgingival placement without visible implant shoulder

  • One-piece design without screw problems: no microgap, screw loosening, fractures or interfering screw channels

  • Efficient restoration: immediate restoration possible, eliminating the healing phase

  • Excellent hygiene and stability: Low plaque adhesion and high primary stability in all bone qualities

Clean Implant Certificate for copaSKY, whiteSKY and HELBO

Share:

A strong signal for quality and safety

June 2025 – bredent medical stands for purity, the highest product quality and consistent scientific validation. The award of the CleanImplant seal for the whiteSKY and copaSKY implant systems as well as HELBO photodynamic therapy confirms these high production standards and the reliable purity of bredent implants.

The independent CleanImplant Foundation uses high-resolution scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and extensive elemental analysis to test dental implants and related systems and is internationally recognised as the benchmark for the purity and quality of implantable systems. As a result, the requirements of the “Trusted Quality” seal go far beyond regulatory standards. The fact that all three bredent medical systems meet these requirements underlines the high security and quality of the company’s portfolio.

whiteSKY: proven biocompatibility

After 2022, the whiteSKY metal-free zirconium oxide implant was once again awarded the CleanImplant seal for the period 2025-2027. This re-certification demonstrates the consistently high quality of the system, which has been proven since 2006. whiteSKY combines high stability due to its one-piece design with the excellent biocompatibility of zirconium oxide – ensuring rapid osseointegration and long-term stable results. In particular, the Alveo and Tissue Line variants have been developed to meet both aesthetic and functional requirements in immediate and late care.

copaSKY: Bone Growth Concept for optimal osseointegration

The copaSKY implant system, on the other hand, was awarded the CleanImplant quality seal for the first time and thus meets all requirements for clinical cleanliness and outstanding material purity. The combination of microstructured backtaper, subcrestal positioning of the implants and narrow, tailored abutments as a further development of the platform switch – combined as the Bone Growth Concept – forms the basis of the system. This concept creates optimal conditions for bone adhesion and peri-implant mucosal sealing.

HELBO: Gentle therapy based on science

After reviewing extensive clinical data, HELBO photodynamic therapy (aPDT) was awarded the “Approved by CleanImplant” label for the first time – as the first non-implantological system from bredent medical. The award recognises the antimicrobial effect, biological compatibility and the consistent scientific validation of the HELBO method. aPDT targets pathogenic germs and supports the treatment of periodontitis and periimplantitis – as a gentle and substance-saving addition to conventional procedures. As part of implant treatment, it helps to create optimal conditions for immediate implantation or augmentation by disinfecting the extraction alveoli. It can also be used effectively for mucositis and thus helps to protect implants from periimplantitis in the long term.

With the CleanImplant awards, bredent medical is once again positioning itself as a technology-driven quality leader in the implantological field. The award of the CleanImplant certificates to whiteSKY, copaSKY and HELBO is more than a quality seal – it is a clear statement for uncompromising hygiene, the highest manufacturing quality and scientifically based product development. This underlines bredent medical’s aspiration to design modern implantology with certainty, systematics and substance.

copaSKY 3.0 – Perfect for every bone situation

Share:

Thanks to the new copaSKY 3.0

Slim, angled and ultra short – for more than 5 years, the copaSKY ultra short implant has proven itself on both a clinical and scientific level as ideal for restoration in patients with low bone height without augmentations. Even narrower gaps smaller than 6 mm can now be easily closed with copaSKY 3.0.

The copaSKY implant system offers the right implant for almost every clinical situation to make optimum use of the existing bone and protect the soft tissue thanks to a minimally invasive procedure. Implants can be successfully placed without extensive surgical intervention by inserting standard implants which are set at an angle of up to 35° and supplied with suitable abutments or ultra short copaSKY implants. With copaSKY 3.0, the system now also offers you solutions for narrow gaps and jaws with severe horizontal atrophy.

The copaSKY 3.0 implant

This implant is so narrow that it even fits into small gaps. With its small diameter of only 3 mm, it maintains all the properties that made the copaSKY implant family so successful:

  • High primary stability in all bone qualities for immediate restoration
  • Microstructured backtaper for crestal bone growth
  • Subcrestal implant position
  • Conical-parallel implant-abutment connection without clamping

Positive photobiological effect

Most attention was paid to ensuring implant stability while copaSKY 3.0 was developed. Despite the small diameter, all abutments achieve 80 % of the values obtained by regular copaSKY implants in the standard test as they are manufactured from pure Titanium Grade 4 KV with a mechanical stability of at least 800 MPa. Nevertheless, the restrictions on indications need to be observed:

  • No extensions, load must be applied via the implant axis
  • Individual crowns up to 6 mm size maximum
  • Angulations up to 18°
  • When combined, only as a mesial bridge retainer, including full-arch restorations

Standard copaSKY abutment connection

The implant abutment connection is the same as for all other copaSKY implants, i.e. all build-ups from the copaSKY product portfolio can be used with only minor limitations. Separate storage is not needed for copaSKY 3.0 and copaSKY 3.0 can therefore also be easily included in larger restorations with other copaSKY implants without the risk of mixing them up.

The new narrow copaSKY 3.0 implants with their suitable, high, tapered build-ups provide sufficient space for soft tissue even in confined spaces. This allows papillae to develop and soft tissue to attach, ensuring the restoration is protected for the long term. It is especially suitable for restoration after One-Time-Therapy, i.e. immediately with no abutment replacement, so that our patient leaves your practice with a smile on their face.

BlueLine parallel bur – bredent launches innovative tool onto the market

  • Innovative approaches to solving problems when post-machining CNC-milled telescopic crowns or bars by hand.
  • Overview of the advantages of bredent parallel burs – insights from practice.
  • Facts and details on technical implementation.
 

Dental laboratories need to rework CNC-milled telescopic crowns or bars by hand. Metals such as CoCr and titanium differ from cast alloys in terms of their properties in their raw form. As a result, manual post-machining with conventional tools is difficult to achieve a smooth surface in a short time.

bredent offers innovative approaches

The BlueLine parallel burs are adapted to the mechanical properties of CoCr and titanium metals. The specially developed toothing ensures effective manual post-machining. These tools are available in two versions: for use in milling machines up to 30,000 rpm (range REF 33000839) and for high-frequency milling machines up to 60,000 rpm (range 33000841). The set includes four tools, covering the range from super coarse to high-gloss processing. All tools can also be purchased separately.

BlueLine parallel burs up to 30,000 rpm are equipped with the time-tested Diatit surface treatment. The BlueLine HF parallel burs up to 60,000 rpm are not surface-hardened.

Master dental technician and laboratory owner Josef Miller: “The uncoated BlueLine HF parallel burs are particularly impressive for non-precious metals at a milling speed of 50,000 revolutions. As far as I’m concerned, there is no better product on the market. We’re able to observe a time saving of up to 50 percent in our lab.”

 

The BlueLine parallel bur

The combination between the high number of cutting edges and a flat twist angle* produces a high removal rate with extremely smooth running. This smooth running prevents chatter marks on the work piece, creating a high-gloss surface from the outset; post-machining is no longer necessary.

The burs also feature a Diatit surface treatment, which also helps to ensure smooth running and provide a high-gloss surface. The Diatit surface treatment also results in increased tool hardness, thus guaranteeing a long service life.

Conventional milling tools have a steeper twist angle*, leading to chatter marks, which require extensive post-machining.

The BlueLine high-frequency parallel bur

Conventional milling spindles operate at up to 30,000 rpm. However, increasingly more laboratories are using a conversion kit on their milling machine to provide a high-frequency milling spindle that operates at up to 60,000 rpm.

The special BlueLine HF bur set (HF = high frequency) with a special cutting edge geometry has been developed for these high-frequency milling spindles. This high speed bur set creates high surface qualities and a completely smooth surface, which is particularly important for the precision required for CAD/CAM work.

A Diatit surface treatment would not produce an optimal surface at these speeds and is therefore not used.

Master dental technician and laboratory owner Claus Küchler (developer of the Telemaster system) assisted bredent during the development phase of new parallel burs for telescopic technology. After a year of testing, the results were conclusive: “We use non-precious metals almost exclusively as the material for our telescopic technology and work with a milling machine at 50,000 rpm. It became evident that bredent’s new burs cut exceptionally fast with a smooth surface and low thermal variation. The very long service life is also worth mentioning. Our verdict: excellent everyday usability, parallel burs with a long service life.”

Luxor accessories – the optimal additions for greater process reliability in dental laboratories

With Luxor Z True Nature, Dental Concept Systems (DCS) is offering the first zirconium dioxide that combines infinitely variable gradients in colour, translucency and strength. With the Luxor SinterSAFE sintered beads, the Luxor FurnaceFRESH cleaning powder and the Luxor ThermoTRACKER PTCR rings, bredent provides the perfect complementary materials for greater process reliability and thus greater cost efficiency in dental laboratories.

Luxor SinterSAFE

Before sintering, the milled restorations are embedded into the Luxor SinterSAFE sintered beads. As Luxor Z sintered beads are made from zirconium oxide instead of aluminium oxide, they have a longer service life. The beads will turn a matt colour after a long period of use. Users know when the beads need to be replaced as white dots appear at the contact points between the beads and the restorations. The reliable colour changes in the beads alert the user that the beads need to be changed.


Luxor FurnaceFRESH

White zirconium oxide works are infiltrated with suitable dyes prior to sintering. These dip paints contain additives that cause long-term damage to furnaces in the event of fire. DCS offers a solution to this problem with Luxor FurnaceFRESH. Users pour the cleaning powder into the sinter bowl. The subsequent cleaning fire will remove contaminants from the device.


Luxor ThermoTRACKER

The Luxor ThermoTRACKER Power Temperature Control Rings (PTCR rings for short) provide the user with information about the actual end temperature in the sintering furnace. The rings that are sintered shrink during the process. The outer diameter is then measured with a digital calliper and compared with the enclosed table, providing users with information about the current sintering temperature.


Spot Clip

When working with a conventional artery clamp, there is always the problem that the holding area is obscured by the clamp’s contact surface. The solution for this problem is: Spot Clip. This clamp only covers a minuscule area of the work. The glaze mass can be applied around the clamp holding point. When the Spot Clip is removed, there are no imperfections in the area where the work was held. The Spot Clip also makes it easier to apply paint. The colours do not fade and there is no need to subsequently apply the colours in the area where the clamp held things in place. This ensures an even glaze is produced. The Spot Clip is available with and without support ring.
