Dental Alginate

Dental Alginate Impression Material

Alginate impression material is a trusted and cost-effective approach to impression collection. Alginates are biopolymers obtained from brown seaweeds, naturally hydrophilic and biocompatible. Alginate impression material safely produces accurate models of teeth and gum tissue for a variety of treatments and dental devices.

An accurate impression is the essential foundation to a successful restoration. Alginate impression products need to deliver flawless, predictable molds that can overcome the innate characteristics of low tear strength and messy handling. Additionally, tray movement, timing, and syringe technique can create distortions and inadequate marginal detail.

Dentsply Sirona delivers alginate impression products and solutions that increase accuracy and dimensional stability, avoiding the need for repeat impressions or restorations. From orthodontics to implants, we have alginates and impression-taking solutions created to achieve the detail required for optimal treatment and patient satisfaction.
