Performance Advantages
Xilgum combines ease of use with outstanding precision. Its extended working time allows comfortable manipulation without the risk of premature hardening.
Once set, the material achieves a stable, easily workable mass, enabling clean and accurate finishing with burs or blades.
Xilgum Soft offers enhanced elasticity for areas with undercuts or delicate gingival contours.
Xilgum Sep Fluid – Specialized Insulating Liquid
Xilgum Sep Fluid is specifically formulated for Xilgum silicones. It provides an ultra-thin, residue-free barrier between impression materials and laboratory silicones, ensuring a perfect, detailed gingival reproduction.
