Vitallium® 2000 Plus

Vitallium® EsthetiClasp™

Since 1932, dentists have trusted their Vitallium® laboratories to create world-class function, fit and beauty standards for premium partial dentures. In this tradition of excellence, Austenal is proud to announce the first advance in metallurgy worthy of the Vitallium® name. Vitallium® 2000 delivers all that you have come to expect and more.

Vitallium® 2000

With its improved physical properties and handling characteristics, Vitallium® 2000 is the new standard for premium chrome cobalt alloys.

The composition of the alloy has been designed to maintain the legendary strength of Vitallium® while improving virtually all of its working characteristics.

Vitallium® 2000´s tensile strength of over 855 MPa´s makes it extremely fracture-resistant, and with an elongation of 9%, the partials adjust like gold.

The lower Vickers Hardness minimizes abrasion on opposing dentition, and, coupled with a yield strength of over 600 MPa's, Vitallium® 2000 resists permanent deformation.

These improved physical properties provide your patient with a partial of extraordinary strength, superior fracture resistance and smaller, lighter design applications – guaranteeing patient comfort and acceptance.

Vitallium® 2000 Plus

The Ultimate Partial Denture

Now Austenal has raised the standard to an even higher level with the introduction of Vitallium® 2000 Plus. This alloy provides physical and mechanical properties never before attainable in chrome cobalt alloys. Vitallium® 2000 Plus incorporates a controlled nitrogen addition during the con-cast process, which results in a yield and tensile strength higher than any other chrome cobalt alloy on the market. Couple these features with an elongation over twice that of regular Vitallium® and you can truly offer your patients the Ultimate Partial Denture.

The improved physical properties provide extraordinary strength and unprecedented fracture resistance while allowing for smaller, lighter, more delicate partial frameworks.

Vitallium® 2000 Plus also has increased flexibility, without deformation or fracture, allowing for excellent adjustability similar to that of gold. By far, Vitallium® 2000 Plus produces the most refined, smooth surface available, one that is easier to adjust, maintains its luster and resists plaque while still maintaining that legendary Vitallium® precision fit. Vitallium® 2000 Plus is the premium alloy of choice for the Ultimate Partial Denture.

Vitallium® EsthetiClasp™

What you don't see is what you get.
Conventional Partial Dentures have visible clasps.	New EsthetiClasp™ Partial Dentures offer comfort, strength, precision and hidden clasps.

Improve Patient Satisfaction with the Comfort, Strength and Hidden Beauty of Vitallium® EsthetiClasp™

More than 60 years of partial design and development have lead to the EsthetiClasp™ System, a new generation clasping system that combines the accuracy and strength of Vitallium® with widely accepted design principles. The result is a truly esthetic partial of maximum strength and function.

The EsthetiClasp™ System incorporates two conventional design variations and precision or milled alternative to accommodate the needs of most partially edentulous patients.

Conventional Design

Two alternatives let you choose the most esthetic and functional application for your patient. An innovative modification of the back-action clasp design, and a unique lingual retaining, clasp, offer maximum retention with little or no tooth preparation and no facial clasp display. Both options can be combined with milled crowns and stress-breaking attachments.

Precision/Milled Restoration

Get the function and esthetics of a precision attachment without the complexity and cost. A precision/milled or cast rest seat is incorporated in the fixed abutment crown to accept an inlayed or conventional EsthetiClasp.
