Zimmer Dental Implants Compatibility FAQs
What does it mean when a component is “Zimmer dental implant compatible”?
It means the prosthetic component is engineered to the same internal hex geometry and platform dimensions used in major Zimmer and Biomet 3i implant families. Surcam components are not OEM but are precision machined to restore Zimmer-style interfaces with accurate seating, torque stability, and long-term restorative fit.
Which Zimmer dental implant systems are supported?
Surcam components are compatible with internal hex platforms used in popular Zimmer systems including Tapered Screw-Vent, T3, T3 PRO, T3 Short, Trabecular Metal, and legacy Biomet 3i internal hex implants. These systems all share platform-specific internal hex designs that accept Surcam abutments, multi-units, healing caps, Ti-bases, transfers, analogs, and prosthetic screws.
Do Surcam components fit MTX or Trabecular Metal implants?
Yes. MTX and Trabecular Metal describe implant body and surface characteristics. The restorative connection remains internal hex, which is platform matched across Surcam components. Once you identify the platform diameter, you can use the corresponding Surcam restorative stack.
How do I verify the correct platform size for a Zimmer implant?
Check the implant label or existing charting for the platform diameter. Common Zimmer internal hex platforms include 3.5, 3.7, 4.1, 4.7, and 5.0 mm. All prosthetic components including abutments, multi-units, transfers, analogs, Ti-bases, and screws must match the exact platform size.
Can I order Zimmer-compatible implants and abutments online?
Yes. Licensed dental offices and laboratories can purchase Zimmer-compatible implants, abutments, multi-units, healing caps, Ti-bases, transfer copings, analogs, scan bodies, and prosthetic screws directly from Surcam. All items are sterile packaged, lot tracked, and include torque and IFU documentation.
Do you offer Zimmer-compatible multi-unit abutments?
Yes. Surcam supplies straight and angled multi-unit abutments, along with matching screws, healing caps, cylinders, and prosthetic components for screw-retained bridges and full-arch restorations.
Are Zimmer scan bodies, Ti-bases, and digital libraries available?
Yes. Surcam Ti-bases and scan bodies are available with verified digital libraries for Exocad and 3Shape. These allow accurate emergence profiles, angulation control, and precise seating for single-unit or full-arch CAD/CAM restorations.
What healing abutment sizes match Zimmer internal hex implants?
Healing abutments are supplied in multiple gingival heights for all Zimmer-style platform sizes. This supports predictable soft-tissue shaping prior to final restoration.
Do Surcam components support both screw-retained and cement-retained restorations?
Yes. Clinicians can use multi-unit abutments for screw-retained full-arch cases or choose straight and angulated abutments for single-unit cemented crowns. All parts follow standard Zimmer internal hex prosthetic protocols.
Are torque values and IFUs included?
Yes. Every sterile Surcam component includes torque references, IFU access, and lot-number labeling for complete clinical documentation and regulatory compliance.
Are these original Zimmer Biomet parts?
No. These are Surcam-manufactured compatible components designed for Zimmer-style internal hex platforms. Surcam is an independent FDA-cleared and CE-certified manufacturer. There is no affiliation with Zimmer Biomet or ZimVie.
Zimmer Biomet®, ZimVie®, 3i®, Tapered Screw-Vent®, T3®, and related marks are owned by their respective holders. Surcam supplies compatible components only.
