Perfect Partners for Implant Maintenance
Your patient has invested in their oral health with dental implants. The tools both of you choose to support and maintain them are critical. Assessment is at the heart of sustained success—assessment of home care activities, tissue health, and osseous support. Implant maintenance is the cornerstone for implant sustainability. Implacare and Colorvue are the perfect partners to meet your maintenance needs.

IMPLACARE™ SCALERS
Secure & Dependable
Implacare tips, designed with PLASTEEL™, are easily secured into the sterilizable Satin Steel handle using dressing pliers. The Implacare™ handle is designed for a lifetime of use, and accepts all replaceable Implacare and Colorvue tips.
Ergonomic Handle
The Satin Steel® handle is lightweight and ergonomic for optimal balance and control with ideal knurling for a confident grasp.
Durability
Implacare tips, designed with PLASTEEL, contain no
damaging fillers. These tips maintain optimal rigidity
for removing deposits without altering abutment
surfaces or leaving foreign residue post-scaling. |
 |
IMPLACARE™
Tough on Deposits. Gentle on implant and prosthodontic surfaces.
FACT: Resin instruments containing glass and graphite fillers, as well as traditional metal instruments, can alter or scratch implant abutment and restorative surfaces. Research has demonstrated the relationship between surface and peri-implant environmental alterations and the development of peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis.1
SOLUTION: Implacare, Hu-Friedy's Implant Maintenance Instrument system, allows you to achieve optimal implant maintenance results while preserving abutment and prosthesis surfaces.
PROOF POSITIVE: A study published in Volume II, Number 1, 1996 of The Inter-national Journal of Oral and Maxillofacial Implants compared the effects of various implant scalers on titanium abutments.
The Result?
Scaling with Implacare preserved the smoothest implant surface.

COLORVUE®
Visibility & Durability. Exceptional patient comfort.
FACT: Resin instruments containing glass and graphite fillers, as well as traditional metal instruments, can alter or scratch implant abutment and restorative surfaces. Research has demonstrated the relationship between surface and peri-implant environmental alterations and the development of peri-implant mucositis and peri-implantitis.1
SOLUTION: Colorvue allows you to achieve optimal implant angulation and readings while preserving abutment and prosthesis surfaces.
VISIBLE DIFFERENCE: Vivid yellow tip & black markings provide increased intraoral visibility for faster and more accurate assessments.
ADVANTAGES: The Colorvue probe ensures greater patient comfort and acceptability and is safe for use around implants.
The Visible Difference!
Compare the Colorvue probe to a standard metal probe. Colorvue's yellow tip with black markings provides superior contrast to the gingival tissue when measuring pocket depth. |
|
Easier Assessments!
5mm of recession is easily assessed as a result of the excellent contrast between the Colorvue probe and exposed root surface. In addition, the Colorvue probe enhances visibility for the measurement of attachment loss. |
