Dental Tribune U.S. Edition No.11, 2017

Implant Tribune U.S. Edition | November 2017 I N DUST RY B3 PROFIN: The reciprocating contra-angle that does what you want, where you want Provided by Dentatus USA teeth and provide fine control to shape both natural curves and flat surfaces to optimize esthetic form in the gingival, interproximal, facial and incisal areas. The companion series of Perio-Tor tips mechanically and safely debride root surfaces leaving the root smooth and prevent further removal of the root cementum once the surface is clean, ac- cording to Dentatus. The secret is in the unique design, which sets the planing groove in a smooth surface. There is even a tip specifically design for root grooves and furcation areas. Stop by Dentatus, booth No. 1714, at the Greater New York Dental Meeting to see a product demo and try the system in your hands.

AD By Dentatus USA Staff Modern dentistry empha- sizes esthetics and shaping restorations to consistent clinical standards of form and function. The PROFIN Reciprocating System is the instrument of choice for shaping and finishing hard to access sur- faces of all restorative materials: enamel, dentin, cementum, composite, porcelain, ceramics, amalgam and metals. PROFIN is designed to move up and down, as well as around, giving you max- imum flexibility and access. With the reciprocating motion, PROFIN is efficient and safe in all recommended applica- tions and eliminates ditching of adjacent teeth, according to Dentatus. The directional design restricts the piston’s movement to 1.2 mm back and forth, making the PROFIN safe for pa- tients as it will never harm the gingival tissue, the company asserts. It can also be used safely in subgingival areas. A wide variety of safe-sided diamond coated Lamineer Tips are available and can fit into areas without ditching or damaging adjacent surfaces. The color- coded tips are designed to facilitate the gross reduction, shaping, finishing and polishing of all hard to access areas in the mouth. Tips can rotate freely to follow natu- ral contours or be fixed for controlled detailing and shaping. Unlike finishing strips, Lamineer tips avoid rounding of ProSites partners with CareCredit ProSites, an innovative dental website design and online marketing provider, has partnered with CareCredit, a provid- er of promotional health-care financing, to help doctors explore financing options with their patients and make it easier to apply from their practice website.
