Pearls For Your Practice

Veneer Styx by Cosmetic Innovations, Inc. — I am always looking for new products that will make seating veneers easier and more predictable. Veneer Styx is a simple device that will make your cementation appointment worries go away. This is a "must-have" for veneer cementation.

This instrument is comprised of an autoclavable, slender handle and a unique blue tip. the tips are made of a semi-soft, flexible, and slightly tacky material that is ideal for positioning and holding the veneer in place. Veneer Styx is easy to use and is ideal for the positioning and cementing of porcelain veneers.
Bulking fingers tend to obstruct one's view, making it difficult to both see the veneer and to direct the curing light to the correct portion of the veneer. Those slippery gloved fingers have compromised tactile sensation. And can inadvertently cause the veneer to move, resulting in undesired results and clostly problems. Ialso use Veneer Styx during the try-in phase of the appointment to help position the veneer and to clearly see that it is properly seated. The blue tip can be ratated on the instrument handle so that the narrow portion can be placed cervically and the wider portion more incisal.
It can be used to fit on both the maxilary and mandibular, anterior or posterior teech. Only Veneer Styx can give the assurance of predictable results while enhancing your vision during veneer placement. The slender, contoured design of the tip keeps the margins clearly visible and accessible, allowing easy access for the curing light, cement clean-up, and flossing. The instrument is autoclavable and the tips are disposable.
