Heidemann Plastic Filling

Description

Heidemann Plastic Filling

The Heidemann spatula is a plastic filling instrument that carries, presses and smooths soft restorative material. Clinicians also use it to handle cements, liners and temporary materials. Intrace USA offers three versions labelled 0, 1 and 2, each stocked in Atlanta, Georgia.

Understanding the 0, 1 and 2 Numbers

The numbers distinguish three versions within the Heidemann pattern. Our listing gives no written dimensions for them. Therefore, compare the photos to see the working ends side by side before choosing. Many dentists already know which number they prefer from training or an existing kit.

Selecting a Heidemann for Your Work

Think about the material and the space you work in most. For instance, a clinician may prefer one number for packing material into a small preparation. Meanwhile, another number may suit spreading cement or shaping a larger surface. Then decide whether to buy one or all three: a full run of 0, 1 and 2 covers more situations on one tray.

Smooth Placement, Clean Release

A plastic filling instrument should release material without pulling it back out of the cavity. So wipe the end often during placement. In addition, avoid letting composite or cement cure on the surface, because residue roughens the finish over time. Clean ends make each increment easier to place and shape.

Checks, Warranty and First Use

Each Heidemann instrument receives a visual check from our team in the United States before dispatch. What is more, sizes 0, 1 and 2 carry three years against manufacturing defects, and Intrace USA swaps any Heidemann with flawed steel. They are supplied non-sterile; clean and sterilize every one before treating patients.

The steel meets ASTM F899. Heidemann buyers also browse Diagnostic, Periodontal & Restorative Instruments. For a second placement pattern, compare the Gregg Plastic Filling Instruments. Our FAQs explain orders, payment and returns.
