Profile: Zimmer Dental, Inc. specializes in dental implant products. Our product portfolio comprises of root-form endosseous dental implants, prosthetic attachments for restoration, surgical instrumentation, collagen-based wound healing and regenerative products, as well as bone graft products. Our tapered screw-vent implant system has multi-lead threads, tapered bodies, and soft & dense bone surgical protocols. On its insertion into a straight, undersized osteotomy, the bone is compressed resulting in enhanced primary stability. Its tapered body also facilitates implant placement between convergent roots, in areas with labial concavities and in immediate extraction sites. Our proprietary friction-fit internal hex connection is a combination of designs that reduce stress on crestal bone and resist abutment screw loosening, thereby maintaining appropriate bone level.
The company was founded in 1927, has revenues of USD 100-500 Million, has ~410 employees and is ISO 13485, CE certified. NYSE:ZMH (SEC Filings)

• Traction Accessories, Leg Straps (FDA Code: ILZ / 890.5925) A traction accessory is a nonpowered accessory device intended for medical purposes to be used with powered traction equipment to aid in exerting therapeutic pulling forces on the patient's body. This generic type of device includes the pulley, strap, head halter, and pelvic belt. |
• Traction Head Halter (FDA Code: HSS / 888.5890) A noninvasive traction component is a device, such as a head halter, pelvic belt, or a traction splint, that does not penetrate the skin and is intended to assist in connecting a patient to a traction apparatus so that a therapeutic pulling force may be applied to the patient's body. |
• Traction Splint (FDA Code: HSP / 888.5890) |
• Uncemented Metal/Polymer Semi-Constrained Hip Prosthesis (FDA Code: LWJ / 888.3360) A hip joint femoral (hemi-hip) metallic cemented or uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a portion of the hip joint. This generic type of device includes prostheses that have a femoral component made of alloys, such as cobalt-chromium-molybdenum. This generic type of device includes designs which are intended to be fixed to the bone with bone cement (888.3027) as well as designs which have large window-like holes in the stem of the device and which are intended for use without bone cement. However, in these latter designs, fixation of the device is not achieved by means of bone ingrowth. |
• Uncemented, Cemented Or Non-Porous Metal/Ceramic/Polymer Semi-Constrained Hip Prosthesis (FDA Code: LZO / 888.3353) A hip joint metal/ceramic/polymer semi-constrained cemented or nonporous uncemented prosthesis is a device intended to be implanted to replace a hip joint. This device limits translation and rotation in one or more planes via the geometry of its articulating surfaces. It has no linkage across-the-joint. The two-part femoral component consists of a femoral stem made of alloys to be fixed in the intramedullary canal of the femur by impaction with or without use of bone cement. The proximal end of the femoral stem is tapered with a surface that ensures positive locking with the spherical ceramic (aluminium oxide, A1203) head of the femoral component. The acetabular component is made of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene or ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene reinforced with nonporous metal alloys, and used with or without bone cement. |
• Upper Femoral Prosthesis (FDA Code: JDD / 888.3360) |
• Wall Vacuum-Powered Operating Room Suction Apparatus (FDA Code: GCX / 880.6740) A vacuum-powered body fluid suction apparatus is a device used to aspirate, remove, or sample body fluids. The device is powered by an external source of vacuum. This generic type of device includes vacuum regulators, vacuum collection bottles, suction catheters and tips, connecting flexible aspirating tubes, rigid suction tips, specimen traps, noninvasive tubing, and suction regulators (with gauge). |
• Water Jet Lavage Unit (FDA Code: FQH / 880.5475) A jet lavage is a device used to clean a wound by a pulsatile jet of sterile fluid. The device consists of the pulsing head, tubing to connect to a container of sterile fluid, and a means of propelling the fluid through the tubing, such as an electric roller pump. |
• Wire Cutters (FDA Code: HXZ / 888.4540) An orthopedic manual surgical instrument is a nonpowered hand-held device intended for medical purposes to manipulate tissue, or for use with other devices in orthopedic surgery. This generic type of device includes the cerclage applier, awl, bender, drill brace, broach, burr, corkscrew, countersink, pin crimper, wire cutter, prosthesis driver, extractor, file, fork, needle holder, impactor, bending or contouring instrument, compression instrument, passer, socket positioner, probe, femoral neck punch, socket pusher, reamer, rongeur, scissors, screwdriver, bone skid, staple driver, bone screw starter, surgical stripper, tamp, bone tap, trephine, wire twister, and wrench. |
• Wire Holding Forceps (FDA Code: HYA / 878.4800) A manual surgical instrument for general use is a nonpowered, hand-held, or hand-manipulated device, either reusable or disposable, intended to be used in various general surgical procedures. The device includes the applicator, clip applier, biopsy brush, manual dermabrasion brush, scrub brush, cannula, ligature carrier, chisel, clamp, contractor, curette, cutter, dissector, elevator, skin graft expander, file, forceps, gouge, instrument guide, needle guide, hammer, hemostat, amputation hook, ligature passing and knot-tying instrument, knife, blood lancet, mallet, disposable or reusable aspiration and injection needle, disposable or reusable suturing needle, osteotome, pliers, rasp, retainer, retractor, saw, scalpel blade, scalpel handle, one-piece scalpel, snare, spatula, stapler, disposable or reusable stripper, stylet, suturing apparatus for the stomach and intestine, measuring tape, and calipers. A surgical instrument that has specialized uses in a specific medical specialty is classified in separate regulations in parts 868 through 892. |
