[QUOTE="DESS-USA, post: 264633, member: 19445"] [B]Ti Base- No Need to Sandblast[/B] [ATTACH=full]27653[/ATTACH] DESS offers the first FDA approved industrially preconditioned sandblasted surface available on a titanium base. This is surface, known as [B][I][U]Select Grip[/U]™, [/I][/B]eliminates the need to sandblast, ensures the implant interface connection remains undamaged, and reduces chair time by ensuring quick and reliable bonding. SelectGrip has 5 times greater retention than titanium base without sandblasting. The ti base includes a final screw and wax up sleeve for Emax press. The case below illustrates the shortcomings of sandblasting. [ATTACH=full]27654[/ATTACH] Before - the ti base is shinny and untouched. After (image on the right) - 50 microns of aluminum oxide where sandblasted onto the surface. Above the collar the ti base is inconsistently and not uniformly sandblasted. This will increase the chances of debonding. [ATTACH=full]27655[/ATTACH] At and below the collar the ti base surface should be highly polished and untouched. This surface is sandblasted and the gingiva can become irritated and the areas can harbor microorganisms increasing the chances of gingivitis. [/QUOTE]
