Introduction of the YOAT Bender II: The Future of Retainer Manufacturing

With discovery® smart sl, Dentaurum is expanding its globally successful premium bracket family, discovery®, with a forward-looking solution: a passive self-ligating bracket that impresses with its smart handling, high-quality materials, and reliable performance. The lid opens effortlessly with an intuitive twisting motion using the specially developed opening instrument. #CLICK&GO – Simple. Fast. Intuitive. Thanks to the simple opening and closing mechanism, the cover can be effortlessly closed by sliding it from the incisal to the occlusal side. A distinct “CLICK” signals that the cover has locked securely into place—“GO” stands for quick archwire changes and significantly reduced chair time. Gentle tooth movement and high patient comfort: The passive low-friction bracket minimizes friction and enables controlled forces for efficient, gentle tooth movement. The low profile and rounded surfaces ensure a high level of wearing comfort. Made in Germany—precision from the Northern Black Forest. discovery® smart sl is manufactured using the precise MIM process at Dentaurum’s headquarters in Ispringen. It combines proven strengths—such as the patented laser-structured base with FDI marking for easy handling, the optimized wing design, and the anatomically shaped bracket base—with new features for high safety and precise rotation control. As if cast from a single mold—for high biocompatibilitydiscovery® smart sl is a three-piece bracket and is therefore particularly biocompatible, as it completely eliminates the use of solder. This is made possible by the patented laser-structured base and the hooks, which are manufactured as a single piece together with the bracket and injection-molded directly onto it. Smart packaging—hygienically sealed in blistersSince 2018, customers have been able to order discovery® smart brackets hygienically packaged in foil-sealed blisters. The discovery® smart sl brackets also undergo a complex cleaning process involving up to seven cleaning steps. High-precision robots place the brackets into the blisters in the correct orientation according to FDI codes as part of an automated process. The blisters are then hygienically sealed with two layers of film.

To mark the 30th anniversary of TIOLOX® / tioLogic® implantology at Dentaurum, the spotlight is on tioLogic® TWINFIT, which features a modern, high-quality design and combines proven clinical reliability with innovative connection technology. The unique connection geometry, offering a choice between a conical and a platform connection, enables maximum flexibility in prosthetic restoration—while ensuring a stable connection. With this, Dentaurum sets new standards for precise, durable, and efficient implant solutions—in both daily practice and laboratory work. The tioLogic® TWINFIT Revolution The treatment team in the dental practice and laboratory always has the right implant, regardless of whether a cone or platform connection is desired: With every tioLogic® TWINFIT implant, both the dentist and the patient benefit from the freedom to switch between cone and platform at any time. The tioLogic® TWINFIT implant system enables clinicians to flexibly choose between conical and platform connections depending on the treatment goal and the patient’s situation—without compromising on impression-taking, restoration options, or long-term stability. This simplifies planning in advance and allows for optimizations during the healing process. The revolutionary Abutment Switch enables the use of two prosthetic connection geometries—conical and platform—on all tioLogic® TWINFIT implants, thereby adapting to any changes in the patient’s oral condition without requiring the implant to be replaced. This patented implant system offers users not only safety and efficiency in handling but also maximum flexibility—from insertion through the final restoration and beyond, even as the patient’s condition changes with age. With 30 years of experience, Dentaurum—as a digital partner—places great emphasis on cost-effective and straightforward workflows that incorporate validated materials—from the planning and placement of the tioLogic® TWINFIT implant, through the scan, to fabrication. The systems offer both the user and the patient flexible, efficient, and customized solutions. This program is rounded out by a comprehensive range of services and continuing education opportunities. The new visual identity highlights the compelling strengths of the tioLogic® TWINFIT implant system through a high-quality, fresh, and consistent design across all communication channels, placing the proven performance of Dentaurum products front and center in a contemporary way.
