Overview

ZimVie has changed hands twice in five years, and older sources describe every stage of that as though it were current. The dental business was part of Zimmer Biomet until a 2021 separation created ZimVie as a listed company covering spine and dental; the spine business was then sold, leaving dental alone; and in October 2025 the healthcare investor ARCHIMED bought the whole company and took it off Nasdaq. Reference material that still calls these implants “Zimmer Biomet Dental” is describing an arrangement that ended years ago. The product lineage is genuinely old, though — the T3 line descends from Biomet 3i, itself the Implant Innovations business founded on work from the 1980s — which is why component compatibility questions here usually need the specific implant name rather than the company name.

Regulatory record

Read this before drawing conclusions. A clearance or certificate means a device may legally be sold in a market. It is not a finding that the implant performs well, and it is not a comparison against other implants. In particular, FDA "clearance" is not FDA "approval" — clearance means the FDA accepted the device as substantially equivalent to one already on the market. What these actually mean →

Clearance records for ZimVie were retrieved from the issuing authority's own database, not from the manufacturer's marketing material. We attribute a clearance to a brand only when the filing holder belongs to that brand's corporate family — third-party clearances for compatible components are excluded, because they belong to the company that made the component, not to ZimVie.
