Go Green with Young Innovations

Heidelberg, October 5, 2021 – Dental manufacturer Young Innovations is kicking off autumn with a “Go Green” campaign. The focus is on the American Eagle Quik-Tip portfolio.

The handles of the eco-friendly prophylaxis instruments are combined with exchangeable tips. This reduces waste, costs and conserves resources because only dull working ends are discarded instead of the entire instrument. The special design guarantees consistent quality at all times.

Take advantage of a great offer: Buy 10 Quik-Tips, trade in 10 old instruments and receive 4 new Quik-Tip Instruments free. The offer is valid for all XP Technology^® and Talon ToughTM Quik-Tips until the end of November 2021.

Quik-Tip handles are available in three types and multiple colours, allowing customisation. This simplifies, for example, identification by room, user and area of application. Quik-Tips are available for scalers, curettes and Gracey Curettes, either with Talon ToughTM stainless steel or XP Technology^®. The XP alloy makes the working ends extremely hard and resistant. They always retain their sharp cutting edges and don`t require resharpening. The Pro Thin option with extra fine tips guarantees optimal access to deep periodontal pockets and exceptionally gentle treatment.

All Quik-Tip attachments can be exchanged quickly using the accompanying tool. Complete instruments can be easily processed in the washer-disinfector. For more information about Quik-Tips, visit www.am-eagle.org

Implant care made easy with American Eagle

Heidelberg, 23 February 2021 – Fixed denture implants provide patients with enhanced quality of life. However, mucositis or peri-implantitis develops in up to 50 per cent of all implant cases, jeopardising the treatment’s success and potentially even leading to implant loss. Only optimal oral hygiene will maintain the health of the tissue around the implant over a long period of time. American Eagle is now presenting a collection of new instruments for professional implant cleaning.

Clean, smooth implant surfaces are significantly less susceptible to infection-causing biofilm. American Eagle Implant instruments thoroughly and, above all, gently remove soft and mineralised plaque. The instruments are made of medical grade titanium, which are currently the most biocompatible material for implants. This special titanium is softer than the implant, meaning that it leaves the surface undamaged. Other curettes often leave residues on the rough implant surface, which in turn promotes the development of peri-implant diseases.

To prevent scratching of the implant surface, all four American Eagle instruments have rounded working ends. Even the scalers are slightly rounded. Lightweight, ergonomic handles made of EagleLite^® plastic reduce the stress on your hands. The 204S implant scaler, intended for the molar region, has a sharp angle to facilitate access. The N128/Langer 5 combination is a modified sickle scaler featuring a universal anterior curette for the upper and lower jaw. The Nebraska 128 tip is ideal for small, tight spaces and the circumference of the implant abutment. The Langer 3-4 universal curette replicates the shaft angle of the Gracey 13-14 and is a good choice for treating implant abutments in the molar or premolar region. A Barnhart 5-6 universal implant curette is also available. The implant instruments are available individually or as part of a set which includes a cassette.
