Our History

Biomec Oxy Implant: A Journey of Innovation and Made in Italy Excellence


It all began in 1990, when two young technicians, Romolo Micheletti and Olivio Della Bella, driven by a clear vision and strong determination, founded a company with a clear goal: to create high-quality, precise, and reliable dental implants, while upholding the tradition of Made in Italy and focusing on fully in-house production.

Full Speed Ahead!

 

Biomec Oxy Implant celebrates 35 years since its founding with a highly educational event called The Expertation Event, which combines experience and innovation. The company’s goal is to fully support dental teams at every stage of their work by combining experience, ethics, and respect for patients, offering professionals precise and reliable solutions, while simultaneously improving comfort and safety for patients.

A major milestone achieved

 

After more than two years of intensive work, Biomec is among the first dental implant device companies, with headquarters and production in Italy and Europe, to obtain certification under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 MDR for all products in the Oxy Implant lines, including implantable devices. This achievement further confirms the quality and safety of Biomec Oxy Implant’s products and services.

Fixo is born-the product that embraces immediate loading

 

Fixo is Biomec’s first One-Piece implant, designed for high performance in both free-hand and guided surgery, specifically developed to support the immediate loading surgical technique.
Equipped with a pre-mounted, patented mounter, it offers three different abutment angulations. Over the years, the Fixo line has evolved into a complete system, offering various solutions such as Fixo Mini, Fixo Pterygo, and Fixo Zygoma.

2012 A constantly growing reality

We’re expanding our home!

 

Biomec continues to grow and expands its headquarters to 1,800 m², adding a new wing dedicated to events and training for Doctors and Dental Technicians.

In 2015, the Oxy Implant range was enriched with the introduction of the K1, an implant line featuring a conometric connection, further meeting the needs of professionals in the field.

2006 Oxy Implant is born

The implant system by Biomec

 

The Oxy Implant brand is born, the implant system designed and manufactured by Biomec, which obtains CE certification, allowing the distribution of the first product line on the market called Classic: an implant with internal connection. Shortly thereafter, a second line called Piesse is launched: a dental implant with internal connection featuring Platform Switching.

1994 The new headquarters

Great News

 

After just four years, Biomec moved to a new 400 m² facility to meet growing demand. In 1998, the company obtained ISO 9001 and ISO 13485 certifications, initiating a phase of expansion by producing for major implant companies. In 2002, Biomec relocated permanently to a new production facility.

1990 Biomec is born

19 90

A dream turned into reality

 

They founded Biomec for third-party production of dental implants, initially operating in a small workshop with two manual machines. After a few months, they purchased their first CNC lathe and, thanks to their successes, established a partnership with an entrepreneur to produce and distribute an implant system, aiming to quickly enter the Italian market with their own product.

1983 The beginnings

19 83

The beginning of an ambitious project

 

In Colico, a small town in Lombardy, two young technicians – Romolo Micheletti and Olivio Della Bella – began, under the employment of a dental studio, the production of dental implants for the Dispoimplant line, one of the first implant lines available in Italy. This was a time when the dental sector was starting to embrace the pioneering studies of Prof. Branemark on the benefits of osseointegration using titanium screws.

Design

All products are developed internally by our Research & Development Department, which oversees every stage of the process: from material selection to industrialization, up to regulatory compliance and project sustainability. The development process is directly supervised by the founding partners, who bring over 35 years of industry experience and collaborate with qualified experts.

Production

We select top-tier suppliers for the procurement of raw materials, such as grade 4 titanium, 99.9% pure and cold-drawn to enhance mechanical strength by +40%. Thanks to state-of-the-art CNC machinery, we manufacture 100% of the components in-house, with dimensional tolerances in the order of a few microns, thereby ensuring high standards of quality, precision, and reliability.

Quality System

Biomec S.r.l. is the manufacturer and producer of the Oxy Implant implant system and directly manages the design, production, and commercialization of its devices at its headquarters in Colico (LC), Italy. Founded in 1990, the company launched the Oxy Implant brand in 2005, obtaining the CE marking, and in December 2022, achieved MDR certification, being among the first with production and headquarters in Italy to do so. Since 1998, Biomec has operated in compliance with the international standards ISO 9001 and ISO 13485, ensuring a solid and structured quality management system.

Quality control

Quality control of Oxy Implant products is structured into two fundamental phases. The first is a sampling inspection: every hour, the last piece produced is analyzed in the metrology lab using high-precision instruments. The second phase is the final inspection, carried out during the finishing stage: here, each component is carefully examined by specialized technicians. All control operations are documented and monitored by the Quality Manager, ensuring a total quality standard.

Surface treatment

AMS (Advanced Micro Surface) è una superficie innovativa sviluppata per gli impianti dentali Oxy Implant, ottenuta tramite un processo che combina attacco chimico, decontaminazione e trattamento al plasma di argon a freddo. Questo protocollo avanzato crea una microporosità controllata che favorisce l’adesione delle cellule osteoblastiche, stimolando efficacemente l’osteogenesi.

I vantaggi clinici comprendono un ancoraggio implantare ottimizzato e un tasso di successo significativamente più elevato. Tutti i trattamenti sono sottoposti a rigorosi controlli al microscopio e a verifiche periodiche per garantire qualità e prestazioni costanti nel tempo.

Package system

The outer packaging of Oxy Implant dental implants is made of cardboard and features a convenient tear-open system.
The graphics on the packaging clearly indicate the type of connection and the name of the implant line. The external labels show the color code and all specific implant data: description, code, production lot, expiration date, and manufacturer.

Inside the packaging is the vial containing the implant and the surgical screw, whose sterility is guaranteed for 5 years thanks to a Beta radiation sterilization process. Along with the vial, there are three adhesive labels with the implant description, code, and lot number, to be applied respectively on the clinical chart, the implant passport to be given to the patient, and any other documentation.

To reduce environmental impact, we have adopted sustainable technological solutions, including replacing a compressor with a more efficient one, LED relamping interventions, and installing a photovoltaic system. The project “Biomec S.r.l. Investments for Recovery 2022” was selected and funded by the Lombardy Region POR FESR 2014-2020 call.
