Investigator Initated Studies - IIS


The IIS process

Our IIS Program - building a research portfolio together

As a premium company in the dental implant industry, we are committed to extensive and sound research and documentation of product performance, efficacy and safety.

An important part of our clinical research program is the Investigator Initiated Studies, IIS, in which Dentsply Sirona Implants supports external research projects. As part of the program, a large number of projects have been initiated and conducted by clinicians from different countries all over the world to investigate a variety of products and indications.

Each year a large number of applications are submitted to us and approximately 40% are approved for support. Currently more than 170 supported Investigator Initiated Studies are ongoing involving more than 300 investigators in over 20 countries. Will your project be the next to qualify?

The IIS Program

Research support

The objectives of the studies are determined by your own research interest. Today the studies include a variety of clinical and experimental research areas. The studies are conducted as, for example:

  • Prospective clinical trials
  • Case series
  • In-vitro assays
  • Mechanical studies 

Quick admission process

We have an ongoing admission process throughout the year. 
 
  • Application for support is done by submitting the application form.
  • All proposals are reviewed by our Global IIS Review Committee.
  • Applicants will get an answer within eight weeks.

IIS Travel grant

All IIS investigators are invited to apply for Dentsply Sirona Implants' IIS travel grant. If an abstract from your Investigator Initiated Study is accepted for a poster or an oral presentation at an international congress you are welcome to apply for a travel grant up to:
  • EUR 1 000, intracontinental travels
  • EUR 2 000, intercontinental travels

Proposal for a research project

How to submit your proposal

If you have a proposal for a research project for which you would like to apply for support, please feel free to contact us.

Available research support from Dentsply Sirona Implants is products and/or financial support up to a maximum of 49% of your total study cost. Your proposal will of course be treated with confidentiality.

Our Global IIS Review Committee reviews all submitted proposals maintaining confidentiality and determining its interest in the expected outcome and that no medical, scientific or ethical concern exists.

The study proposal should include the information detailed in the Study proposal form that you can download below. Since this type of project is sponsored and owned by the investigator, we support maximum 49% of the total study cost. Please note that off-label use of our products is not approved within the IIS program.

Your request will be organized through your local contact and you can expect a response within approximately eight weeks. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact your local contact or send an e-mail to: IIS.Dental@dentsplysirona.com
