Where NH sits
Hiossen documents ET III in several variants, each with its own brochure. NH is one of them, sharing the ET III family's tapered body and Morse taper connection while differing in specific design details.
For a patient the practical implications are the same across the family: the connection determines component compatibility, and the platform size determines which abutments fit.
Hiossen's three surfaces
Hiossen's literature refers to three surface types across its systems. SA is sandblasted and acid-etched, the industry-standard roughened surface. CA and HA are further variants; HA denotes a hydroxyapatite-type coating, a calcium-phosphate mineral chemically similar to bone. Different surfaces suit different bone conditions, and the choice is your dentist's to explain. Ask which you are receiving and why.
Our source material for ET III NH is a product brochure listing components and dimensions rather than a clinical document. We can confirm the variant exists and how it is documented, but we will not construct a clinical rationale the sources do not contain. If NH has been proposed for you, ask your dentist directly why this variant, that is a question with a real answer.
Questions worth asking your dentist
- Why the NH variant rather than standard ET III SA?
- Which surface am I getting, SA, CA or HA?
- What platform size, and which abutment colour code?
- What diameter and length are you planning?
- How many of these have you placed?
- Will you record the system, platform and reference number in writing?
