Your First Step to a Successful Restoration is a Successful Dental Impression
Critical aspects such as provisional fit, patient education and compliance, and final crown fit all can be attributed to the material and techniques you use to capture the patient's original dental anatomy. Selecting the right dental impression material and the right techniques can also save you time and money by reducing how much trimming and adjusting of the provisional and final restoration you or your dental assistant will need to do. Algin•X Ultra alginate alternative is a Vinylpoly Siloxane impression material designed to afford you high levels of accuracy, easy matrix handling and shaping, and long-term stability. Ultimately helping to ensure provisional fabrication success initially and later on, in those occasions where a patient breaks or loses their provisional.
Benefits
Why choose Algin•X Ultra?
Matrix Tips for Improved Provisional Removal and Fit
Algin•X Ultra material allows for more procedure flexibility over traditional alginates due to its ability to be shaped and adjusted, keeping your carefully designed matrix as a permanent record. Removing interproximal contacts, building cusps, and more, help ensure optimal form and function, allowing your provisional to truly be a first glimpse of your final restoration.
Easy Auto Mixing for Ensured Accuracy with Less Mess
Your time is important. Saving time in meaningful ways helps increase production and both employee and patient satisfaction. Algin•X Ultra material is available in a convenient auto-mix delivery system that eliminates the need for hand-mixing impression materials and cleaning up the mess afterward.
Detail and Stability
Algin•X Ultra material is designed to reliably deliver optimal preliminary impressions that remain accurate 14 days after taking. Short- and long-term dimensional stability help you deliver your best during visit one and save you time in cases where repairs or remakes are necessary.
Alginate Alternative
Algin•X Ultra material delivers predictable accuracy with dimensional stability, requiring less time adjusting, and providing a permanent record. High detail and reliability help to counteract common pitfalls like open margins, rough margins, bad contours, or poor occlusal contacts.
- Fourteen-day dimensional stability ensures accuracy today and into the future, helping deliver success during the first appointment and eliminating lost time during potential repair or refabrication visits.
- A three-minute set time provides for quick preliminary impressions, increasing your procedural efficiencies while developing an accurate capture of your patient's anatomy.
- Auto-mix delivery provides for fast mixing, convenient delivery and simple clean up.
- The pleasant mint flavor promotes patient satisfaction and compliance.
Tips for Success
Always start with bleeding the cartridge and applying tray adhesive
Don’t dispense too much
Verify proper maximum intercuspation
Bur out holes on the buccal and lingual surfaces of the preliminary matrix to ensure easy removal of provisional from the mouth
Take your impression with a dual arch impression tray like First Bite® disposable trays to ensure the patient is in occlusion, reducing checking and correcting time
