Passive and Intelligent Metal-Free Dental Implants
Nowadays, only 5% of toothless people in the world access to dental implants, generating side effects to people that don't, with trillions of dollars in public spending and a lot of suffering.
At the same time, 99.7% of today dental implants are metallic and recent scientific papers demonstrate that the metallic particles in the bloodstream predispose to critical diseases. Also, the electromagnetism generated by cell phones with 4 and 5G internet will predispose more threats.
Finally, the Industrial process to produce them contaminates the environment.
Our triple impact project consists in producing metal-free dental implants based on nanobioceramics prepared for digital work-flow, using 100% eco-friendly technology. We are also projecting a new generation of implants with micro/nanosensors, to be placed by public and private health systems, that combined with apps and Artificial intelligence blockchain health platform, will let everyone get access to health systems, minimizing costs, need of energy and pollution.
There are 30 million metallic dental implants sold per year by 4000 producers approximately, and there are only 10 producers of metal-free implants that have only gained 0,3% of the global market share in the last 5 years, due to the fact that they have defined a price for this metal-free products, that is 2 and 4 times more expensive.
MABB has been working 12 years to be the first zirconia dental implant company to sell the products at the same price as metallic, generating the right production process, 100% eco-friendly technology, management team and business model to scale-up globally and efficiently.
As a second phase, we will seek to solve the problem of the 95% of toothless people that cannot access. The WHO has declared that more than 500 million people are in this situation, generating negative systemic consequences to people, families, States and beyond. MABB will develop intelligent implants with A.I. blockchain platform that will reduce the cost of the placement to the minimum expression to activate a whole deconstruction of the Health System.
We are actually executing the passive metal-free implant project with a pilot project in Argentina (target: 250.000 people), following in Brazil (target: 2.500.000 people). Once we obtain CE registrations, we will pursue different countries in Europe, Africa and Asia, and once obtain FDA, going to North America to complete the first stage of business plan.
For this, Mabb is working with recent metal-free implant associations and Academic Institutions, and with prestigious implantologists actually placing metal-free implants, that will do the casuistic with our implants, and let MABB understands the user experience of doctors and patients. Also working with traditional producers, that will use their commercial channels to distribute our products. MABB will produce for big players of the traditional market an exclusive line of products.
Being successful implies that we will give to people that actually only access to metallic dental implants the possibility to deny metal and prevent serious potential health issues, and at the same time protect the environment with an eco-friendly industry behind, finally, will let MABB activate the second phase, that will attend 95% of the population needing dental implants and health systems.
In order to change the paradigm of oral implantology, MABB has been working close to doctors, scientists, engineers during almost 12 years, and projected a complete line of metal-free implants to be launched during 2019 and 2020, in alliance with traditional producers that will produce for MABB a complete line of complementary products as tool kits, drills, surgical guides, protocols, among others.
Together with strategic alliances, MABB will be attending 2 different segments of dental implant markets, starting in Argentina and Brazil, following with other markets as was expressed previously. Segment 1 is related to a low cost segment, that is attended by traditional producers that will distribute our own line. Segment 2 is related to a mix of low-cost and premium traditional producers that will require from MABB an exclusive line. In Both cases, the target user 1 is the doctor, that places the implants to patients, target user 2. In this link there is an introduction about metal-free dental implants benefits, by Dr Sammy Noumbissi, founder and president of the International Academy of Ceramic Implantology:
MABB is actually the only producer in AMERICA with the required eco-friendly technology that injects at Ultra High pressure, nano-zirconia particles, validated for medical purposes, that after a process of sintering at 2.900°F we obtain high quality pieces with mechanical strength and biological precision for optimal osseointegration.
This technology let us produce the zirconia implants at very competitive costs to be sold by both segments of clients at very competitive prices, whom are going to distribute the products already sterilized, packaged and labelled according to the requirements of each market norm (FDA, CE, ANVISA, ANMAT, others). Throughout segment 1, MABB will have the chance to promote it own brand Z7, among dental associations, in order to be closer to doctors and patients, that acts as a laboratory of user experience for MABB for the development of the next stages.
MABB will use the same technology to develop special implants with complex geometries that integrate nanosensors for the development of the A.I. implants and platform business, to be canalized through strategic public and private alliances, that will let gradually deconstruct the Oral and Health System, to serve all humanity and protect the planet considering all the eco-friendly technology to be used.

- New technology
Nowadays, the traditional dental implant industry, that governs 99,7% of the market, uses milling technology. In this link there is an explanation: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milling_(machining) . The raw material used is a metallic called titanium, and in the process, more than 30% is scrap. Once each piece is finished, has to be treated with acids or sand blasting techniques, to generate a superficial rugosity required for osseointegration, that are non ecological. If this treatment is not well done there is risk of detachment of particles that affects the health of patients. This industrial procedure requires 10 times more energy and space than what MABB is proposing.
MABB innovated in the biomaterial, using a nano zirconia with tetragonal molecular structure that is a supermaterial in terms of mechanics (used in F1 automobile and aerospace), also is metal-free and totally inert for optimal biological osseointegration, already validated by the FDA.
Also innovated in an eco-friendly production process, using injection machines with ultra high pressure. With only one process generate complex pieces without generating scrap and integrating the superficial treatment for the best osseointegration. Finally, the pieces goes into a sintering system at high temperatures for the cohesion of the nanoparticles to generate a full dense piece that assures mechanical and biological optimal behaviors.
It took us almost 12 years to innovate around a new metal-free nanobiomaterial, best primary technologies with eco-friendly industrial procedures, best quality controls, to understand the dental implant market and industry players, the academic, medical and scientific field; and as a pioneer, start creating or supporting an ecosystem (with our direct competitors) that has to work in the consciousness of humanity regarding the whole value proposition.
For the moment, we maintain our core technology as an industrial secret and we are actually working in the patent process of complementary technologies to co-create our next step of evolution using our actual production technology in combination with certain strategic alliances, especially in nanotechnology, medical and software field, that consists in a new generation of active dental implants, that integrates nanosensors in its metal-free implants, that uses low energy wireless connection to transmit biological information of a patient with blockchain technology to an app/platform that will secure that personal information.
The patient will have the power to monitor and share it with his doctors online to allow the possibility of multiple benefits that will gradually deconstruct the oral health systems up to a total positive deconstruction of the general global health system, and protecting/healing the planet.

Our first solution is already achieved. Here is a link to see the product brochure: http://www.mabbiomaterial.com/... , that consists in the passive metal-free dental implant that solves the health problem regarding metallic dental implants that the medical and scientific papers and congresses are already communicating. Here is one of these papers: https://link.springer.com/arti...
Also, is interesting to review this doctor explaining its benefits:
The second solution (in process), is the active metal-free dental implant with nanosensors for osseointegration including a blockchain platform, that will allow doctors to monitor in real time the progress of osseointegration, in order to call the patient just in time when the right moment to load the implant has came. This will impact significantly the cost of the procedure, and improve the quality of life of people from urban and rural places that actually cannot access. But most important, will let MABB have the learning curve to pursue the final stage.
The third solution (projected) is the metal-free implant with multiples nanosensors integrated into an A.I. blockchain platform. This A.I. platform will act as an artificial intelligent doctor in real time available for any human being connected, at very low cost of transactions, low cost of mobility, and with plenty of options for a patient regarding his particular requirements of health and insurance services, impacting positively lives, enabling new eco-friendly technologies and letting everyone being part of the healing process that our planet requires.

MABB is already a member, and has a close relationship with its founder and president. Daniel Miguez has participated in them, and collaborates with the creation of Latin American Associations and Argentina, to expand this network with doctors from the region and Argentina. https://iaoci.com/ Testimonial of the Congresses that the IAOCI carries out:
These last 12 years of R&D and commercial pilot projects, MABB throughout its founder, Daniel Miguez, had access to many bootstrapping and fundraising sources, such as: angel investor clubs, personal savings, subsidies, prizes, grants, and income from selling products. These last 2 years MABB has raised a significant money from professional investors that let us finish the last stage of development to approach to sustainable commercial deals, and actually having dialogues with 2 accelerators from Brazil and Argentina, and a very prestigious Law Firm: Shearman Sterling, based in the USA, is organizing the road-show of 6MM USD (in 2 stages: 1MM and 5MM) to let MABB scale-Up globally.
MABB is expected to close the first important commercial agreement with a strategic Alliance in Argentina during July 2019, that will let us have first sustainability plan on the road. Following by a potential agreement with a strategic alliance in Brazil expected by the end of 2019, Italy and Spain (during the first semester of 2020), France, Germany, and desiring a big player in USA (during the second semester of 2020).
MABB has an internal policy of sustainability plan, as it is showed in the Social Business Model Canvas above, where 40% of income goes to Cost Structure, and 60% to EBITDA, where 10% of EBITDA goes to the social and environmental impact plan to be implemented by NGO ́s or Academic Institutions.
Below there is the strategic structure to balance entrepreneurial, with innovation and business management cost structure:
MABB is applying because after 12 years of hard work of R&D and lean processes we need to overcome the global scaling up process of the Zirconia implant project. MABB need to overcome the next year barriers explained previously, and also to accelerate the next innovation project for the active Zirconia implant project that requires plenty of knowledge in A.I., software mixed with nanotechnology development, several stages of lean processes, among other barriers.
So, joining the MIT-backed network, will let us take a lot of advantage of the 12 months of personalized support, to search for the global partnerships needed to accelerate our project (specially the A.I. one), to validate the triple impact business model, and help us to scale-up our actual solution in the different markets, specially in the USA.
Also, we believe that winning will help us a lot to create global consciousness regarding the problems with metallic implants, and the benefits of metal-free dental implants. Also, regarding ecological problems with traditional industry. And Finally, regarding the good use of A.I. to let every human being to get access to the best health system possible.
