New polyvinylsiloxane impression material combines viscosity and positioning pressure of putty with the convenience of automatic mixing device delivery.

CUYAHOGA FALLS, Ohio--Coltène/Whaledent has announced introduction of AFFINIS System 360 putty.

This new polyvinylsiloxane impression material combines the viscosity and positioning pressure of putty with the convenience of automatic mixing device delivery.

AFFINIS 360 putty delivers a tactile, kneadable consistency directly after automated mixing. The material is hand pliable and can be molded and preformed without sticking to gloves.

By using the automatic mixing device, AFFINIS System 360 Putty is consistently and homogeneously mixed. This prevents problems associated with improper dosing or mixing techniques.

Likewise, the system saves time by eliminating the hand mixing and kneading necessary with traditional jar putty material. In addition, the larger 380mL capacity hard cartridges reduce material waste and provide up to 10% more material than foil bag systems.

With dimensional stability, the material resists shrinking and expanding to provide detailed impressions and restorations.

The new AFFINIS System 360 putty fits commercially available mixing units and blends with regular set AFFINIS and AFFINIS Precious wash materials.
