implant identification
No idea which implant is in your patient’s jaw, is it Dyna or another brand? If it is Dyna, what type is it? For the internal connection, it does not matter whether it is Dyna Helix DC, ST, TM or Dyna Octalock. These have the same internal connection. However, it may be useful for the laboratory to know in relation to the platform, as it may well differ from diameter 3.2 to 3.6 or 4.0. Below is a comparison of the different implants of Dyna Helix, Dyna Octalock and Dyna push-in no octa. Compare your x-ray with the images and specific features below (The images are made in vitro). If it is not Dyna, you can also find all kinds of images of implants on a website like whatimplantisthat.com.

- tripartite cylinder screw
- root-shaped core
- self-tapping thread
- compression zone
- rounded lower edge
- internal octalock connection
- diameters 3.2, 3.6, 4.2 and 5.0
Dyna Helix ST Implant
- cylinder screw
- root-shaped core
- self-tapping thread up to neck
- no compression zone
- sharp cutting lower edge
- internal octalock connection
- diameters 3.6, 4.2 and 5.0
Dyna Helix TM Implant
- Trans-Mucosal uncoated collar
- root-shaped core
- self-tapping thread up to neck
- no compression zone
- sharp cutting lower edge
- internal octalock connection
- diameters 3.6 and 4.2

Dyna Octalock Implant
- push-in implant
- cylindrical
- internal octalock connection
- same connection as Dyna Helix implants
- diameters 3.6, 4.0 and 5.0
Difference with Dyna Push-in implant without octa is that the external thread passes internal screw part

Dyna Push-in Implant
(no octa)
- push-in implant
- cylindrical
- internal screw connection
- no anti-rotation
- colour coding
- diameters 3.0, 3.6, 4.0 and 5.0
Difference with Dyna Octalock implant is that the external thread does not pass the internal screw part
