The Manufacturer


The Kettenbach company is achieving an outstanding position inside the European community due to the quality of its silicon for use in Dentistry.The company holds 70% of the production in the whole continent, holding a privileged position among other companies regarding quality and high professional standards in silicon production.

Believing in the quality of the products, Kettenbach decided to research a polyvinyl siloxane with durability and a clinical performance very similar to the denture acrylic but with some advantages:It gives comfort and durability to the user, a very important issue sometimes not met by the acrylic resin.

The Product

Finally in 1999, Kettenbach introduced in the European market one polyvinil siloxane liner for complete dentures with a totally new purpose, willing to fill in the gap left from the denture acrylic because of hardness.

Mucopren Soft has excellent mechanical properties besides last generation chemical composition, therefore giving an uncomparable durability (with similar products) inside the oral 
cavity. When dentists realize the importance of the soft material in Dentistry, Mucopren soft will be a strong tool for the denture acrylic .

In 2000 this soft liner has been brought to Brazil by Dax Dent, which packs and distributes it in the whole country.
