Bredent Sky Dental Implants, The German Sky Range

Overview, What Bredent Sky Is and Why It Matters

Bredent Medical is a German dental products company headquartered in Senden, with a substantial product range covering implants, dental composites, and laboratory materials. The Sky implant range was introduced in 2002 and has expanded across single-tooth, multi-unit, and full-arch indications. The distinctive Bredent contribution to implantology is the SkyFast & Fixed full-arch protocol, a same-day immediate-load full-arch system using a CAD-CAM-milled PMMA reinforced prosthesis, designed for streamlined surgical-day-to-final-prosthesis workflow.

Bredent Sky, Brand and Manufacturer Background

Bredent was founded in 1974 in Germany originally as a dental laboratory products company; the medical division spun out in the 1990s with a focus on implants, prosthetic systems, and CAD-CAM workflows. The Sky implant range introduced in 2002 was the company's foundational implant product. Manufacturing is in Senden; the company remains privately held.
