Present situation and future R&D at Nobelpharma AB

Nobelpharma's long-term objectives are to reach many patients with implant treatment, to strengthen our position as the world's leading implant company and to become one of the world's leading companies in the dental field. We have defined a number of strategies and identified obstacles which need to be overcome in order to achieve these objectives. Research and development is of course one of the most important strategic fields for our company. For a leading research company, it is essential to be able to protect its innovations, so patents are very important. Our patent situation today is very strong and we now have more than 100 original patents or patent applications. We are continuously working on the development of new techniques and products. Our research areas include studying interface geometries, soft tissue integration, defining guidelines for treatment planning and increasing our knowledge about precision requirements in support of future product development.
