SULTAN CHEMISTS, Inc. INTRODUCES SILGIMIXTM: An Alginate Replacement Impression Material


ENGLEWOOD, NEW JERSEY, (September 1, 2005) -
Sultan Chemists, a leader in manufacturing of infection control products and oral therapeutics since 1872, today announced the introduction of SilgimixTM Alginate Replacement Impression Material. Available through Sultan’s global network of distribution partners, Silgimix puts an end to messy hand mixing of powder/ liquid alginate impression materials.

Silgimix was developed from vinyl polysiloxane chemistry and is available in a new style 380ml disposable cartridge system for all automatic mixing machines or in convenient 50ml, 1:1 cartridges for dispenser guns. Either style cartridge allows the user to automatically mix the material without hand mixing saving valuable time. Everyone will enjoy the fast 2:10 set time and patients will love the great mint flavor!

Silgimix addresses the shortcomings of alginate materials by giving users the ability to disinfect, the option of pouring multiple times and the ability to scan the impression electronically. Additionally, the Silgimix chemistry allows the user to delay pouring the model for several weeks and ship the impression long distances.

“Silgimix was developed with input from our network of opinion leaders and top Dental Universities to meet the needs of today’s dentist”, said Dr. Clark Smith, Senior Vice President of Sultan Chemists. “A superior packaging system combined with key clinical benefits offers something that clinicians not only desire, but demand.”

Sultan’s Silgimix provides a simple alternative to messy, hazardous alginate materials. Silgimix is available through Sultan’s global network of dental dealers.
