IMPRESSION MATERIALS
AFFINIS by Coltene Whaledent
Perfect Impressions
A perfect AFFINIS impression is the key for accurately fitting, laboratory fabricated restorations. It provides the ideal basis for successful teamwork between the dentist and the dental technician.
The premium A-Silicone AFFINIS differs in various characteristic features from other surface activated impression materials:
Innovative surface affinity
The differentiating element of AFFINIS is a fast and innovative affinity of mixed material to moist tooth structure and tissue (gingiva).
Optimized flow
AFFINIS however, based on its surpassing combination of additives, which are capable of breaking material structures, displays a very low barrier to flow (self-contouring consistency)
At the same time, the mixed material is optimal thixotropic not to drip off the preparation.
Better models
AFFINIS, due to its synergistic and extremely active surfactant system, displays a fast and outstanding wetting by water of the set impression. When pouring the gypsum, the dental technician will appreciate these properties.
First ever autoclavable impression
All AFFINIS and AFFINIS PRECIOUS impressions are now autoclavable at 134° C without the loss of its well-known and appreciated AFFINIS physical properties. The new autoclavable AFFINIS impression material with a heat-resistant impression tray and special adhesive provides an integrated system for completely new possibilities in prevention.
AFFINIS impressions – not only clean, but also sterile.
AFFINIS light body A-Silicone
AFFINIS wash materials wet the tooth and gingiva extremely quickly and effectively. Its hydrocolloid-like property ensures that the wash material flows into the narrowest areas without applying pressure. AFFINIS light body has a very low contact angle thanks to its structure-breaking property of the surfactant agent. The mixed material provides adequate stability and does not drip from the tooth. Its distinct surface affinity and flowability virtually eliminates the risk of air voids and distortions.
AFFINIS fast light body A-Silicone
AFFINIS wash materials wet the tooth and gingiva extremely quickly and effectively. Its hydrocolloid-like property ensure that the wash material flows into the narrowest areas without applying pressure. Besides the very low contact angle thanks to its structure-breaking property of the surfactant agent, AFFINIS fast light body provides an extremely quick working time. The mixed material shows adequate stability and does not drip from the tooth.
AFFINIS regular body A-Silicone
AFFINIS wash materials wet the tooth and gingiva extremely quickly and effectively. Its hydrocolloid-like property ensures that the wash material flows into the narrowest areas without applying pressure. Beside the low contact angle thanks to its structure-breaking property of the surfactant agent, AFFINIS regular body provides a medium wash consistency, an adequate stability and does not drip from the tooth.
AFFINIS fast regular body A-Silicone
AFFINIS wash materials wet the tooth and gingiva extremely quickly and effectively. Its hydrocolloid-like property ensure that the wash material flows into the narrowest areas without applying pressure. Beside the low contact angle thanks to its structure-breaking property of the surfactant agent, AFFINIS fast regular body provides a medium wash consistency, an adequate stability and sets extremely fast.
AFFINIS BLACK EDITION A-Silicone
The new black tray material AFFINIS heavy body BLACK EDITION reaches with gold or silver coloured AFFINIS PRECIOUS excellent readability of the impression.
The unique colour combination displays details even more precisely and supports the qualitative assessment of the impression result.
AFFINIS PRECIOUS A-Silicone
Superior flow properties where it counts – In the mouth
AFFINIS PRECIOUS polyvinylsiloxane (PVS) wash materials have a contact angle of only 10°. Its superior flow properties allow the impression material to easily capture all critical surface details of the preparations in a wet environment.
AFFINIS PRECIOUS was developed to produce accurate results in the mouth and in the lab. The wettability allows the wet gypsum to flow more easily into the impression, producing more accurate stone models. An accurate model is the key for the lab technician to create proper fitting restorations.
AFFINIS PRECIOUS provides you with exceptional readability of marginal detail. The unique silver and gold pigmentation drastically reduces the light scattering effect, thus improving the visibility of the margins.
Thermo-reactive formula leaves you in control of the total setting time
AFFINIS PRECIOUS wash materials have a variable working time from 5 to 60 seconds. The variable working time is possible due to the thermo-reactive formula that has an accelerated setting after the tray has been seated and the material has reached its final film thickness. This allows the total impression setting time to be in direct relationship to the number of preparations included in the impression.The fewer preparations you have, the less total setting time you need.
AFFINIS MonoBody A-Silicone
AFFINIS MonoBody is tissue friendly and neutral in taste without side effects or patient discomfort. After a short oral setting time of 3.30 min the AFFINIS impression can be easily removed without residue or distortion.
The impression is disinfectable without dimensional changes. The high elastic recovery of 99.75% and dimensional change of just 0.2% are the essential characteristics for accurate restorations.
AFFINIS MonoBody can also be used as the tray material for the one-step putty/wash technique.
AFFINIS heavy body A-Silicone
The high consistency and rapid build up of pressure for AFFINIS heavy body produces strong compression, making this tray material ideal for the one-step putty/wash technique. Buccal and palatal areas can also be easily reproduced with AFFINIS heavy body.
AFFINIS fast heavy body A-Silicone
The high consistency, rapid build up of pressure and fast working time for AFFINIS fast heavy body produces strong compression, making this tray material ideal for the one-step putty/wash technique. Buccal and palatal areas can also be easily reproduced with AFFINIS fast heavy body.
AFFINIS putties
AFFINIS putties have an easy mixing consistency and are compatible with all AFFINIS wash materials.
AFFINIS System 360 putty
A genuine putty from a large cartridge. It provides a firm consistency immediately after being extruded from the mixing unit. It does not adhere to gloves and can be molded immediately into the tray to accommodate the clinical situation.
AFFINIS putty soft
AFFINIS putty soft is a standard putty in the AFFINIS putty range. The compatible consistencies of the base and catalyst ensure for quick and easy mixing.
AFFINIS putty super soft
AFFINIS putty super soft is a very smooth putty, which can be easily mixed to a homogeneous consistency. Super soft putty is ideal for all one-step putty/wash techniques.
