Smilekey(Implant Removal Device)

This is a small-capacity induction heating system for an implant removal device, the first technology of its kind that was successfully developed by applying PSTEK’s expertise in the area of induction heating. Our company was requested by RODO, a US dental device company, to jointly develop Smilekey, a small-capacity power supply used to detach Smileloc, which connects abutment and crown, through induction heating.

Development background

RODO, a US dental device company, wanted to develop an implant that could be conveniently detached without using a screw or cement
To this end, the dental device company devised the concept of an implant that would be detachable through induction heating, and visited our company, an induction heating specialist
Our company applied our expertise in the area of induction heating to produce the design for the concept. This is how Smilekey was developed—the world’s first implant removal device that can detach an implant without using a screw, through induction heating
