Founder & CEO of Champions® Implants, Germany
Champions® Implants has become Germany’s largest owner-managed dental company in less than two decades. Founded in 2006 by Dr. Armin Nedjat in Flonheim, the company introduced the MIMI® protocol (Minimally Invasive Method of Implantation), a groundbreaking approach that eliminates flap surgery, sutures, and second-stage procedures. This technique reduces treatment time from 180–300 minutes in five sessions to about 60 minutes in two visits, while preserving the periosteum, minimizing trauma, and improving long-term outcomes, as confirmed by 10-year studies.
MIMI® enables immediate and delayed implant placement—even in narrow jaws or sinus lift cases—without swelling, complications, or pain. When at least four one- or two-piece implants are used, immediate loading with definitive prosthetics is often possible.
Innovations include the Smart Grinder, a device that processes extracted teeth into autologous bone graft material in just eight minutes, leveraging natural growth factors for optimal regeneration. Wound closure is simplified with BloodStop, a hemostatic “patch” that transforms into a transparent gel within three minutes, eliminating the need for sutures.
Champions’ leading product, the two-piece (R)Evolution implant, is manufactured in Germany with exceptional precision and features a pure Grade 4 titanium surface optimized for osseointegration. Since 2022, it has been CleanImplant-certified, ensuring the highest quality standards.
Dr. Nedjat’s pioneering work in minimally invasive implantology has earned international recognition for its
innovative impact on dentistry.
Dr. Armin Nedjat is the developer of the MIMI® procedure. He earned his doctorate in 1993 at Goethe University in Frankfurt am Main, Germany and has decades of experience in implantology, with more than 33,000 documented implant placements, especially using MIMI®. He is an international speaker and author of numerous specialized articles. His approach emphasizes the “demystification” of implantology through clearly standardized steps and hands-on training, including formats with live surgeries. Nedjat was nominated for the German Medical Award in 2017 and won the Sensus Award for Best Innovation in Medicine in Dubai in 2013
