In recent years, when teeth become damaged, implants are used more instead of the traditional fixed prosthesis. The most important thing at this time is the height and quality of the available bone, and they greatly affect the initial stability during implant placement. Therefore, when placing an implant in a patient with insufficient available bone, additional surgery to enhance the height of the bone is often required.

However, in this case, placing a short implant without additional surgery can also be a method. Because this procedure can be done relatively simply, this is an advantage that both the patient and the operator can relieve the burden of.

DIO paid attention to this point and has continued to study short implants.
By improving the design and surface, DIO was able to complete the development of a short implant that allows implant placement even when bone resorption is severe. DIO launched a new UF(Ⅱ) Short Implant (hereinafter referred to as Short Implant) optimized for patients with severe alveolar bone resorption.
