Neodent dental implants

Neodent implants are filed with regulators under the name JJGC Indústria e Comércio de Materiais Dentários S.A., part of the Straumann Group. The company is headquartered in Brazil.

The address on its regulatory filings is: Curitiba, BR (FDA 510(k) applicant address).

Headquarters and factory are not always in the same place. We only list manufacturing sites after we have confirmed them, so a “made in” claim should be checked against the implant's packaging or passport.

Yes. The FDA database lists 23 endosseous implant 510(k) clearances for Neodent, the first in 2010.

Recent examples: Pterygoid Indication for GM Helix Implants (K252090, 2025); Neodent Implant System - Zirconia Implant System (K250271, 2025); Neodent Implant System - GM Zygomatic Implant System (K232099, 2023).

FDA clearance means the FDA found the device substantially equivalent to one already legally sold. It is not a quality ranking and says nothing about how one brand compares with another.

Well-known Neodent implant lines include GM Helix, GM Narrow, Helix Short, GM Zygomatic and Zi (zirconia).

Ask the clinic that placed it for the implant sticker or implant passport. It shows the system, diameter, length and lot number. Keep a copy.

Implants sold in the United States carry a Unique Device Identifier (UDI). With the UDI you can look up the product in the FDA's AccessGUDID database.

If no records exist, a dentist can often narrow it down from an X-ray, but that identification is not certain.

Neodent is usually offered as a mid-range option in clinics. It is typically priced below the Swiss premium brands.

We don't publish prices, because the implant is only one part of the bill. The clinic, country, number of implants, abutment, crown, scans and any bone grafting all change the total. Ask for a quote that names the brand and system and lists everything included.

Neodent has an FDA 510(k) record specifically about MRI: “MRI Compatibility for Existing Neodent Implant System” (K182620, 2019). “MR Conditional” means an MRI scan can be done safely under specific conditions set out in the labeling.

Always tell the radiographer that you have dental implants and, if possible, which brand and system.

Neodent is brazilian brand of the Straumann Group — value segment. The FDA database lists 23 implant clearances for it, the first in 2010.

No brand is best for everyone. Whether Neodent is a good choice for you depends on your bone and treatment plan, your dentist's experience with the system, and whether parts will be available where you live.

We don't publish a single survival percentage for any brand. Studies differ in patients, follow-up time and how they define success, so their numbers can't be fairly compared between brands.

What makes the biggest difference over the years is gum health, smoking, a history of gum disease, and regular professional cleaning. The European Federation of Periodontology's clinical guideline on peri-implant disease focuses on exactly these factors.
