GC Fit Checker II: Essential Dental Lab Silicone for Prosthesis Fit Checking
Fit Checker II is a high-performance white vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) silicone material designed for checking the fit of dental restorations and prostheses. Specifically formulated for use in dental laboratories and clinical settings, it ensures accurate assessment of contacts and fit for various dental appliances.
Features:
- Excellent flowability for precise detail reproduction
- Optimal deformation resistance for accurate fit checking
- Thin film thickness for detecting even minute discrepancies
- Good tear strength for easy removal without breakage
- Ability to reproduce fine details for comprehensive fit assessment
- Adjustable working time with the included retarder
Applications:
- Checking fit and marginal adaptation of crowns, bridges, and other fixed prostheses
- Assessing contact points of cast frameworks
- Evaluating the fit of removable partial dentures
- Examining the mucosal surface fit of complete dentures or partial dentures
