Key Features of DMG Honigum Light:

High Precision and Detail Reproduction
Honigum Light is designed to capture the finest details of the tooth and soft tissue. It flows easily into all areas of the dental impression, ensuring that every detail is accurately reproduced, making it ideal for crowns, bridges, inlays, and implants. -
Optimal Flow and Viscosity
With a carefully balanced light-body consistency, Honigum Light flows easily into the gingival sulcus and around undercuts, ensuring full coverage of the tooth preparation. It adapts perfectly to the contours of the teeth and surrounding soft tissues, capturing intricate details for a precise fit. -
Superior Dimensional Stability
Honigum Light provides excellent dimensional stability, ensuring the impressions retain their shape and size without distortion. This is essential when sending impressions for pouring or fabricating restorations. -
Smooth Handling and Easy Application
The material is easy to handle and apply, reducing mess and increasing the precision of your work. Its smooth consistency ensures it does not run or flow excessively, making it easy to control during the impression-taking process. -
Fast and Reliable Setting
Honigum Light has a reliable setting time that allows for quick removal from the mouth without sacrificing accuracy. The material sets quickly enough to avoid discomfort for the patient but provides ample time to achieve precise results. -
