Thermo Clone Alginate Alternative

Thermo Clone Alginate Alternative

Unlike traditional alginate, Thermo Clone Alginate Alternative material is ready to use when you need it. No hand mixing gives you a consistent, powder-free (and lump-free) mix that is easier to use and dispense. The material is also scannable, which makes it easy to capture digital images without using a powder or contrasting agent. It can even be disinfected to prevent cross-contamination!

The delightful Bubble Gum scent will soothe patients, and all of your impressions will maintain the detail you should expect.

Product Overview

We've added an alginate alternative to the Thermo Clone impression material line because there are cases when a more expensive VPS impression material is not needed, but the task requires greater impression accuracy, dimensional stability, and ease-of-use than an alginate can provide.

There are a lot of reasons an alginate alternative would be useful to your office. For example, your office may send impressions to the lab instead of working in-house. Alginate alternative is dimensionally stable, providing longer storage times and repouring of impressions, making it perfect for out-of-office lab work.

Another reason might be that staff is becoming increasingly less comfortable mixing alginate and prefer the ease-of-use and convenience of alginate alternative.

No matter the reason, alginate alternative is a cost saver because the material itself is affordable and reduces prep time. It goes straight from the cartridge to the impression tray.

Alginate alternative is a perfect impression material for offices that mainly use digital scanning. Why? Because the material is easily used for a variety of impression taking needs. More importantly, it's a cost-effective backup in cases where a digital impression is not the best choice, equipment is down, or equipment is in use by other patients.

Key Features

A Thermal-Accelerated Set means curing begins as soon as it is placed in the patient's mouth—leading to less distortion and imperfections.

Thermo Clone Alginate Alternative material maintains its shape during transfer to a lab, providing superior dimensional stability compared to traditional alginate.

Due to its flexibility, Thermo Clone Alginate Alternative material captures needed details and will release easily from undercuts.

You can repour the impression and create multiple models if needed. It saves you time and money.
