Lab test

Main purpose of NiTi Brush return to the smooth† surface

During the debridement using the NiTi Brush, the tone of colour of the implant surface becomes shiny, like a silver colour.

Failed implants, removed from patients close-up, before and after

Four implants removed because of peri-implantitis, photographed under magnification before and after debridement with the NiTi Brush. The contaminated layer comes away; the thread geometry underneath is untouched.

Lab test 24 implants

Debridement of the surface of failed implants removed from patients, using the NiTi Brush for peri-implantitis. Each image shows the implant before and after debridement.

Note on “smooth”

† Smooth refers to moderately rough implant surfaces (e.g. SLA, RBM). In laboratory studies with the NiTi Brush, surface micro-roughness was reduced by removing protrusions (Kim et al. 2016) and the sharp-edged microstructure was smoothed, brushing continuing until the surface looked uniformly smooth and shiny, as in clinical use (Brunello et al. 2025). A clinical review describes polishing the exposed rough implant surface to a smooth surface with the NiTi Brush (Hiroyasu 2018). The shine seen chairside is the visible sign of this change (HANS Korea performance test).
