Excellent recovery after deformation
Due to its high elasticity, Silagum exhibits a very good recovery after deformation, i.e. an extremely low compression set.
It is also this high elasticity that makes removal from the mouth so easy. Any deformation that occurs upon removal safely recovers, thus ensuring precise dimensional reproduction.
Very good hydrophilicity
Thanks to its high surface wettability, Silagum provides optimum adaptation to the tooth substance and mucous membrane in the moist oral environment.
Together with the highly flowable viscosity, this enables precise reproduction of subgingival areas. This results in pinsharp impressions, even of the finest details*.
