Why is a 3D computer-aided implant planning important?

The OPG is often no sufficient base for implant planning. It contains just 2D information, what provides only little information about the anatomy and bone quality and does not reflect the breadth of the bone-ridge - to determine the precise positioning for the implant.

CT-/DVT-pictures - from DICOM layer data - are difficult to interpret and in general, primarily for the diagnosis but not for planning. The conversion of DICOM-layer data into a 3D program is the basis for a spatial interpretation.

The bredent Casting Technique includes all work processes required for the production of casting moulds and the chemical-physical processes during melting, casting and the re-solidification of materials. Materials that are perfectly matched with this technique and the processes are found in the certified symbiotic system css.

Economic efficiency paired with added value and a holistic concept! This milling unit is impressive with the simplicity of its user guidance and how quickly it can be mastered. With high precision it ensures the implementation of the finest details as well as dimensional flexibility during the milling process.

The 5 axis are the success factor in pioneering independence and thus the decisive aspect for an excellent fit. Zirconium dioxide ceramic (zircon), as a material of the future, is processed with exceptional efficiency, so that the costs of crowns and implants are minimised.

By virtue of its aesthetic advantages, such as high translucence, natural colour rendering and excellent flexural strength, it is the basis for bio-compatible dentures. Furthermore, its biaxial pressing ensures constant quality.

11. High safety thinks to immediate release of the heated blades
12. Proper storage of sensitive ceramic blades
13. Ceramic brushes can be perfectly stored in a hanging position

The Quick Change system
In the past technicians‘ desks were frequently overloaded with instruments to be used in the fields of ceramic, wax models and prosthetics. Well-structured, clearly arranged and proper storage was impossible. When instruments were frequently exchanged (thread connection!) a key had sometimes to be used and the position of the inserts towards each other could not be freely adjusted. Quick Change was developed to prevent these problems.

Quick Change is a system consisting of a handle with integrated magnets and high-precision retaining sockets. This combination allows to take up and release the various inserts very quickly. The blade holder is suitable for 12 inserts (brushes, special and standard blades and adapter). The „Greenstein“ ceramic spatula that are available on the market can be integrated into the Quick Change system with an especially developed thread adapter.

Connect bridges

1. good capillary effect
2. extremely high stability for perfect retention
3. short hardening time
4. improved casting results

 

Injection moulding unit for thermal resins up to 400° C

1. No additional equipment such as CO2 cylinder or compressed air required. This way costs and time are saved. The injection moulding result can be achieved more easily and safely since pressure drop is avoided
2. Added comfort thanks to simple programming and operating of the unit
3. Time-saving function thanks to simultaneous operation of both heating chambers
4. The injection process can only be performed with the lid being closed; additional safety is provided. Convenient removal of the flask thanks to automatic cartridge ejection if the bracket is unlocked

1. Reinforcing mesh for prosthetics - High strength for increased stability of the denture and reduced fracture risk of the resin:
     - only 0.4 mm thick; suitable for a wide range of applications
     - gold type is plated with 99.7 % fine gold
     - stainless steel type


2. Wire reinforcing gauze for prosthetics - Gold gauze available with different aperture widths:
     - no opaque required thanks to gold plating (99.7 % fine gold)
     - almost invisible in the denture resin
     - aperture widths of 355 µm and 450 µm

Light-curing composite - for quick fabrication of post and core restorations. compoForm UV burns out without leaving any residue and produces homogeneous casting results.

'Individual modelling directly from the syringe. Thanks to immediate hardening with a polymerization lamp the model can be built up in a safe and controlled manner.'

 

MagicContrast - black hair

Facilitating contraction and expanding measurements for the first time.

1. Impression Materials - 'Contraction'
   Studies have indicated that impression materials differ greatly in their contraction (shrinkage) behavior, reproducing the oral situation inaccurately. The brecision impression material provides stable values after two hours, permitting further processing to be performed rapidly.


2. Dental Stone - 'Expansion'
   Check the expansion values for your dental stone materials and compare them to those of bredent’s Thixo- Rock. Thixo-Rock expands by a maximum of 0.06% after two hours; after 48 hours, the expansion is still less than 0.08%.


3. Silicone duplicating materials - 'Contraction'
   Contraction measurements of different silicone duplicating materials have shown substantial differences between these. Exaktosil N15 was stable at 30 minutes, at 0.02%. The values for other duplicating silicones changed after 24 hours, adversely affecting the fit of the restoration.


4. Investment Compound - 'Expansion'
   Investment compounds that can be controlled exactly and individually are a prerequisite for non-precious alloy precision one-piece attachment casting as well as for K+B plastic injection molding using thermopress 400.
