Most implant-based dental restoration use placing external hex units to enable the implants to easily get driven into the bone. However, there can be some mechanical issues that might occur to cause fractures and screw loosening. An implant at or beneath bone level allows a more stable and long-term implant. Thus, Nobelactive implants are getting more popular for producing conical dental implants. The conical connection can solve micro-movement With an internal hex platform, there is always a possibility for more space gaps where implant and abutment connect. Conical connection of implants such as Nobel active can create an ultimate seal that can form a connection between the implant and abutment to reduce any kind of micro-movements. This type of connection produces a wedging effect that presses perfectly to fit the connection as the sides spread. Moreover, if there is any minimal gapping, it can be virtually removed. Provides surgical and prosthetic benefits The conical conn

Dental putty is also known as polyvinyl siloxane. Its reaction forms a viscous liquid that dries instantly to turn into a rubber-like solid substance. Dental putty can take the shape of any surface they are kept on. The package comes with two liquid components, i.e., the two-part epoxy, kept in separate tubes until mixed and applied. Let’s get to know how they are used. Dental putty is used as impression material Preparing dental impressions is essential in dentistry applications. Many different materials are produced from dental putty that is adequate for dental processes, such as crowns, braces, bridges, and prostheses. Dental putty is essentially used in producing dental molds and cast materials, which are irreversible once they turn to the solid form. There are two types of dental putty Condensation cure The condensation cure impression putty involves using tin salts as a catalyst in the reaction. This type of dental putty is very easy and economical to use. Furthermore
