Southern Implants ExtHexTapered
Southern Implants is a South African dental implant manufacturer established in the 1980s, serving the global market with a focus on innovative implant solutions. The External Hex Tapered line features conical implants with the classic external hex connection — one of the earliest standards in implant dentistry. This tapered geometry provides reliable primary stability and suits standard implantation protocols. The external hex interface offers broad compatibility with abutments and components from various manufacturers. The library is designed for exoplan, the implant planning module within the exocad DentalCAD software suite. It enables dental technicians and implant surgeons to precisely plan implant placement on CBCT data, select abutments, and design surgical guides. Certain devices in the External Hex Tapered range carry FDA 510(k) clearance, confirming compliance with US safety standards.
