PLYMOUTH MEETING, Penn.—Premier Dental, a global privately-held developer, manufacturer and distributor of dental and medical products, recently announced four new products designed to provide dental professionals with important new solutions that help deliver efficacy, convenience and improved patient outcomes.
“Even during the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic, we remain committed to delivering meaningful innovations that help enable first-rate care from the dental community to patients worldwide. As an agile fourth-generation, family-run business, we continue to identify unmet or under-served customer needs and deliver differentiated new products that become standard-setting solutions in the marketplace," said Premier’s CEO Julie Charlestein.
The new products include:
Premier X5 Sectional Matrix System
Built as a complete, high-quality, five-component system, X5 is designed to deliver reliability, convenience and better value. Made in the U.S., the anatomically-shaped matrices ensure proper contouring and tight contacts each time. The proprietary resin rings are strong, flexible and reusable for up to five autoclave cycles. Compatible with other wedges and matrices, X5 is easy to use compared to Tofflemire-type retainers.
BioGreen Biodegradable Micro-Applicators
Strong and bendable, BioGreen Micro-Applicators are an environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional plastic micro-applicators. Made from a food production straw byproduct, they are biodegradable and compostable. The packaging is made from post-recycled Kraft paper to embrace the sustainability mission. Available in regular, fine and super-fine sizes.
NexTemp Clear Temporary Resin Cement
NexTemp Clear is a reliable temporary cement with firm retention that lasts between patient visits and can easily be removed when needed. NexTemp is a eugenol-free resin cement with a proprietary potassium nitrate, chlorohexidine and fluoride formula, which studies show may help prevent postop sensitivity. It is available in two shades—opaque and clear.
BioCoat Opaque Bioactive Pit & Fissure Sealant
Now in a new opaque white shade that fluoresces under a black light for easy verification of placement and sealant integrity, BioCoat is a bioactive resin pit and fissure sealant that delivers daily remineralization. This technology provides the benefits of extended release of calcium, phosphate and fluoride ions to strengthen tooth enamel and protect against acid attacks.
