Fact
Dental implants are becoming a mainstay of dental restorative therapies.
More and more dental implants are being installed every year and need to be maintained to ensure the health and functional longevity of the restorative solution.
Challenge
While probing depths and attachment levels is essential to determine the health of peri-implant tissues, not every set-up is equipped with a resin probe – the recommended solution for sensitive implant areas. Additionally, switching between a resin probe for implants and a metal probe for natural teeth adds time to the evaluation process.
Solution
The Colorvue Oxford Periodontal Probe from Hu-Friedy is designed specifically for dental implant patients, featuring a metal tip with Qulix™ markings on one end and a resin tip on the other end. This double-ended instrument does the job of two probes, thus taking up less space on your tray and allowing for full probing of the entire dentition with a single instrument.
