Why do we need a dedicated dental implant screw channel barrier?
The management of implant screw channels is important to minimize bacterial colonization, increase efficiency of workflow and maintain future retrievability of restorations. Traditionally, dentists have used off-the-shelf solutions like cotton pellets, gutta percha and silicone impression materials. More recently, industrial pipe thread tape (aka plumber’s tape) has become the most popular material used as a barrier. All these materials can be problematic for various reasons. This discussion will introduce a novel medical grade barrier material with optimized properties for the screw channel that will enhance your workflow and eliminate safety concerns.
Objectives
- Understand the limitations of traditional barrier materials, including plumber’s tape.
- Understand the concerns regarding industrial products used in medical/ dental applications.
- Learn about the advantages of using a dedicated and optimized screw channel barrier.
