Description
CoSil 110µm is a specialized type of powder used in dental procedures, particularly in the preparation and coating of various dental materials. It consists of 110µm aluminium oxide (Al2O3) particles that are highly coated with silica. This coating forms a silicatised adhesive layer that enhances bonding properties.
Uses in Dentistry:
- Surface Coating for Bonding: CoSil 110 is used to coat surfaces such as cobalt chrome, titanium, gold, ceramic, and high-performance polymers (HPP). The silica coating ensures a durable and retention-free bonding surface for composites and resins.
- Preparation of Metal Restorations: It is ideal for the pre-treatment of metal restorations before adhesive luting with composite luting cements. This ensures a strong and durable bond between the restoration and the tooth structure.
- Repair of Ceramic and Composite Surfaces: CoSil 110 can be used in the repair of ceramic and composite surfaces, enhancing the adhesion of new restorative materials to the existing structure.
- Adhesive Layer Formation: The silicatised layer created by CoSil 110 ensures that the surface is optimally prepared for bonding, improving the overall strength and longevity of the dental restoration.
Application in AquaCare Devices:
AquaCare LabSeries: In the AquaCare LabSeries, CoSil 110 is utilized for precision coating of dental materials. The device allows for controlled application of the powder, ensuring that the silica coating is evenly distributed and effectively enhances the bonding properties of the treated surfaces.
Summary:
CoSil 110 is a silica-coated aluminium oxide powder used in dental procedures to create a durable adhesive layer on various dental materials. It is particularly useful for coating and preparing metal, ceramic, and composite surfaces for bonding with composite resins. The use of CoSil 110 in AquaCare devices ensures precise and effective application, improving the bond strength and longevity of dental restorations.
