Panthera Dental is proud to add two new bars to its extensive line of products. The new bars are innovative and unique. Indeed, both were developed in collaboration with clients to create a product adapted to the current needs of the market.
The “Integrated Bar™” is a wrap-around implant bar, with the benefit that it can be removed by the patient. Once the bar is removed, the patient only has to clean the small abutment. To maintain the bar in place, a system including colored nylons is used. With its practical design, the system can be used directly on the head of the implant with an angle of up to 30 degrees.
The “Lock ‘n’ Release™” is an upgraded version of a ten-year-old concept developed by Dr. Richard Taché and Mr. André Archambault RDT. At first, the system did not include an implant bar. It was intended to allow the prosthesis to be removed by pressing two buttons. With the help of Panthera Dental, the concept was updated to a CAD/CAM version for a custom adjustment and now comprises a bar. Thanks to this simple yet advanced mechanism, patients with dexterity issues or their nursing staff can remove the bar themselves for improved hygiene.
