Ultradent releases Uveneer Extra Restorative Template System
Ultradent has released its new template system, Uveneer® Extra Restorative, the company said in a press release.
The Uveneer Extra template system is a complement to the original Uveneer template and provides more natural restorations with four new upper anterior designs-Extra Large, Large, Medium, and Square templates. The templates work with any preferred composite to create exquisite, reproducible composite veneers with predictable shape and symmetry.
“Composites have developed to the point that we’re able to really change patients’ lives by doing more composite work,” said Dr. Sigal Jacobson, who was inspired to create elegant and efficient veneers, leading to the creation of the Uveneer system. “Dentistry is going toward natural-looking surface textures, so Uveneer Extra has more natural templates which were scanned from real people.”
The templates themselves are autoclavable and prevent the oxygen inhibition layer forming during the curing process resulting in hard, glossy surfaces-while also allowing light to pass through to the composite for effective curing.
