Meeting the need with innovation and expertise

Southern Implants was established in 1987 to develop, manufacture and distribute dental implants. Southern Implants has been a pioneer in this field over the last two decades and has contributed extensively to ongoing enhancements with respects to osseointegration of implant devices, surgical techniques, patient education and options for treatment. The product range is continually being expanded to incorporate the newest technologies and trends. Where many of our competitors are rationalizing their product range, Southern is offering more choices. The implants are made from ASTM-F67-95 Grade 4 pure titanium, with a tensile strength of 550 MPa. The surface is enhanced with abrasion and chemical conditioning. The surface has been proven by way of extensive animal and clinical trials and has been in use for more than 16 years. It is Southern Implants’ expertise in research, development and manufacturing of dental implants that allows us to provide innovative solutions for your everyday challenges. It is Southern Implants’ dedication and commitment to superior service that allows us to support you in providing the highest standard of care. Southern Implants is not only the leading implant company in Southern Africa, but is a significant role player in the USA, UK, Europe and Australasia. Contact us today to see howbright ideas lead to better results. MERGER OF SOUTHERN IMPLANTS USA WITH KEYSTONE DENTAL

The merger of Southern Implants Inc (the American Southern company) with Keystone Dental, took place in June 2012. This will increase the availability and distribution of Southern products, in the Americas and Asia. It is seen as an important move in exposing more top-end users to the philosophies and innovative products, developed by Southern Implants of South Africa. The relationship between the merged company, which will retain the name "Keystone Dental", and Southern Implants, is as follows:

Keystone Dental has a license, granted by Southern Implants, to manufacture and distribute the products that have been developed by Southern Implants. This License is restricted to North America, South America, and Asia. The license does not extend to Africa, Europe, Australia, New Zealand and parts of the Middle East.

Forty years. One big party. 🎉

In 1987, Southern Implants was founded in Irene, South Africa, with a simple conviction: that clinicians deserve implants engineered around real clinical challenges - not the other way around. Four decades later, the implants that leave our Irene factory are placed in patients across the world, and the ideas that started here have changed what's possible for the compromised maxilla, the immediate full arch and the most demanding restorative cases.

So we're bringing it all home.

On 10 & 11 September 2027 we're hosting the Southern South Africa Symposium - a two-day celebration of forty years of Southern, on the ground where it all began.

Expect keynotes from the clinicians who've shaped our story, live debates on the questions the profession is still arguing about, hands-on workshops in the lab and on the bench, a tour of the factory where every Southern implant is made, a golf day to open - and a sunset cocktail party to close.

Save the date, and add your name to the list so you're first to hear when registration opens:

We can't wait to celebrate with you.

🌍 Reflecting on an incredible EAO 2026 in Lisbon 🇵🇹

As another fantastic EAO Congress comes to a close, the Southern Implants team leaves Lisbon feeling inspired, energised and incredibly grateful.

Over the past few days, our stand has been filled with meaningful conversations, new connections and the opportunity to reconnect with long-standing colleagues, clinicians, distributors and friends from across the global implant dentistry community.

From showcasing our innovative treatment solutions and exchanging clinical knowledge, to our distributor gathering in Cascais and a memorable Southern Implants cocktail evening, EAO 2026 has been about so much more than products — it has been about people, partnerships and shared ideas.

A special thank you to everyone who visited the Southern Implants stand, spent time with our team and joined us throughout the congress. Your continued support, enthusiasm and collaboration are what make events like EAO so valuable.

We leave Lisbon with great memories, exciting conversations to continue and renewed enthusiasm for what lies ahead. Thank you, EAO 2026. Until next time!

We had the pleasure of hosting the Southern Implants Cocktail Evening at EAO 2026 — an evening filled with great conversations, meaningful connections and time spent with colleagues and friends from across the global dental community.

A highlight of the evening was hearing from Graham Blackbeard, who shared a few words with our guests and reflected on the innovation, relationships and people that continue to shape the Southern Implants journey.

We are grateful to everyone who joined us. It was wonderful to reconnect with familiar faces, welcome new ones and simply enjoy an evening together in beautiful Lisbon.
