The coating goes by the name of Balimed Ticana. Its natural-looking gum color is designed to offer an aesthetically pleasing appearance to the tooth abutments, which are connecting elements between a dental implant and the dental prostheses treatment. This incredibly smooth coating, which is based on the Oerlikon Balzers patented S3p technology, allows stable fixation of implants over a long period of time, the press release explains. It is characterized by a particularly high level of corrosion resistance. The hard coating offers protection against wear and tear and additionally provides a high degree of stability for crowns. According to information from the company itself, dental instruments coated with Balimed Ticana offer a highly smooth, hard, chemically stable surface quality that can be sterilized at high temperatures. Color coding allows dentists and surgeons to more easily identify their dental instruments during dental treatments. |
