| What is it used for? | ||||||||
 |
All applications in the dental laboratory and several at the dentists, such as inlays, onlays, bridges, crowns and dentures and fillings, splints and repairs. Metal-free. How can this be? Because of the fabric - think of entire airplanes being built out of such material ! For more information klick here. |

Why should I consider using it? No investments needed. All you need is a pair of scissors and a light-curing device. And it behaves just like normal light-curing composite, so you can put "pure" composite on top of it to color-shade it. No problems of lacking adhesion, differing thermal properties...Benefits |

How do you know it works? We've been doing it since 1992. Which colors are available ? All "VITA"-Colors can be provided. It's the composite that gives the color, the ribbon is without color. Currently we deliver B1, A2, A3,5 and pink. When do I need Polyester, when Polyethylen ribbon ? You need DentaTex with Polyester ribbon on the surface - it can be milled and finished outstandingly well. It's strenth is sufficient for most indications. Polyethylen is extremely strong, about 6 times stronger than than Polyester, but it does not mill as nicely as Polyester.It is required for bridges and dentures as supporting structure. |
