Kettenbach Dental knows all about materials for bite registration: Products from the Futar^® family have been market leaders in Germany for 25 years now (according to GfK, the German consumer research association). This demonstrates an intensive connection between quality and continuity as well as a clear focus on user benefits. And this is also the case for the two newest products from the Futar^® family that will now be launched in September: Futar^® Easy and Futar^® Easy Fast. Both stand for a particularly low dispensing force with noticeably easier application from the 50 ml cartridge.

Something for Kettenbach Dental to be proud of: Five products from the mid-sized company’s portfolio have just been awarded once again. The leading research publication from the USA, The Dental Advisor, regularly awards the highest quality materials used in dentistry, and Kettenbach Dental products have once again impressed the experts. Visalys^®CemCore has now joined the ranks of awarded products.

Although Kettenbach Dental has experienced the situation several times, it is still unusual: Four products from the mid-sized company’s portfolio have just been acclaimed for the second time. The leading research publication from the USA, The Dental Advisor, regularly awards the highest quality materials used in dentistry, and the Kettenbach Dental products once again stood out from the crowd here.

At IDS 2019 Kettenbach Dental presented its professional audience with a completely new corporate design. As part of this new design, the extensive product range of the German family-run company has now been given a new and distinctive look. Users will soon receive their familiar products Futar^®, Identium^®, Panasil^®, Silginat^®, Mucopren^®, and Visalys^® in modern and fresh packaging. The company emphasizes that of course the products themselves remain unchanged regarding their quality and character.

As one of the first dental companies at all to do so, Kettenbach Dental has successfully achieved certification of its impression materials in accordance with the new Medical Device Regulation (MDR). In March 2020, the first audit in compliance with the European Medical Device Regulation was conducted and passed, and accordingly, Kettenbach Dental has now been issued with the official certificate by its Notified Body, TÜV SUD. This is an important quality management milestone for the medium- sized company, which has made its name around the world with its products for impression taking and composites.

The US platform for dental education, Catapult, recently had the precision impression material Identium from Kettenbach Dental evaluated by its affiliated dentists in Canada and the USA. The positive results led Catapult to expressing its “Vote of Confidence” in the product. The majority of the reviewers were of the opinion that Identium’s innovative product features clearly improve the impression process and therefore the results.
