Sagemax’s latest product is engineered to revolutionize how you think of anterior restorations. NexxZr anterior zirconia is specifically designed for the anterior region. Its high natural translucency and high strength (more than 1000 MPa) are said to mean it can effectively be used for full-contour single units and bridges.

inLab® Software 15 is designed to provide freedom of design and materials, whether creating single restorations, removable partial frameworks or screw-retained bridges and bars. It is now possible to design and mill implant surgical guides and screw-retained bridges with or without soft tissue. Additionally, model-free den­tistry is reportedly even easier with a new triple-tray scan mode for the inEos® X5. Along with the integration of dental databases, one of the newest features of the software is the jaw-oriented biogeneric reconstruction option that uses the entire occlusal surface of the jaw, as well as the patient’s individual occlusal curves, to create beautiful initial proposals. The software processes files from all current digital impression services, including Sirona Connect, iTero and 3Shape.

Smile Line introduces “FlexMount,” a flexible rubber connector for combining the handle and the tool. The FlexMount is designed to allow users to apply a very gentle snap to the brush tip. A gentle snap reportedly accelerates the required moisture from the brush belly toward the point. Utilizing this method, the brush tip automatically returns to its sharpest shape while receiving ideal moisture. Also available is the FlexMount with the zirconia spatula. It works as a shock absorber and is said to provide maximum comfort and feeling during mixing of porcelain or stains. The connector is compatible with any of the Smile Line black handle instrument line.

The new Stern SNAP angled overdenture implant abutments are designed to work with many popular implant systems. The two-piece design reportedly allows the SNAP angled abutment to perform true angle correction of up to 20° on divergent implants without the need to rely on a hinging attachment. The SNAP is also available in a straight version for implants within 10° of parallel. The system features a new maximum durability cap (available at 1 lb., 2 lbs. and 3 lbs.) that does not require a housing, making for a low profile of only 2.5 mm and requiring less space in the denture.
