  • Master impression/cast accuracy is critical for the integrity of full-arch implant prosthetics and dental implants
  • Whether analog or digital the master impression/cast must be verified
  • AurumTek is a clinically validated method for digital impression verification that is simple to use without the necessity for additional costly hardware
  • AurumTek reduces chair time and patient comfort significantly compared to analog techniques, while increasing predictability of the final prosthesis
