The Separable Fastener is the revolutionary patented technology behind Smart Denture Conversions. It significantly simplifies the procedure for converting a removeable denture to a screw-retained fixed prosthesis by allowing for a closed-tray pickup.
The Separable Fastener secures the TiBase to the multi-unit abutment the same way as a prosthetic screw, except the PEEK Cap (Screw Head) and the Threaded Post are designed to separate, allowing the denture to be removed from the mouth. The PEEK Cap will disengage and remain in the TiBase for the pickup while the threaded post remains in the multi-unit abutment.
Similar to the Standard Separable Fasteners, but with a 2mm taller PEEK Cap (Screw Head) designed to work with the Tall TiBases.
The Tall Separable Fasteners ensure the PEEK Cap extends slightly above the TiBase. This allows the PEEK Cap to be locked into the TiBase during pre-coating, which makes drilling the PEEK Cap out later, a smoother process.
Compatibility
-
SDC Default (Unigrip)– SF10PK – M1.4x0.3 Thread - Tighten with SDC T5 Driver
-
Extended Thread (Straumann) – SF10PK-ST – M1.4x0.3 Thread - Tighten with SDC T5 Driver
-
Omnibut – SF10PK-OA – M1.6x0.2 Thread - Tighten with SDC T5 Driver
Note: If you plan to use the Separable Fastener 10-Pack with the Omnibut, please be aware that Omnibut Prosthetic Screws have a larger diameter and finer screw threads than most industry-standard prosthetic screws. As a result, they may not be compatible with some tools and accessories commonly used in dental offices.
