Automatic mixing units give dental professionals a shortcut to the perfect mix of impression material. Building off of the trusted Pentamix family name, the introduction of the 3M ESPE Pentamix Lite Automatic Mixing Unit provides dentists with an entry model to the world of automatic mixing.

The affordable, portable mixer works with all 3M ESPE impression materials, including Imprint 4 VPS Impression Material and Impregum Soft Polyether Impression Material.

From high-viscosity putty to medium-bodied materials, the Pentamix Lite automatic mixing unit delivers a homogenous, reproducible mixing quality for void-free impressions.

The unit’s light weight and its integrated handgrip make it easy to carry from operatory to operatory, and its compact design saves space when the device is in standby position. Additionally, the Pentamix Lite automatic mixing unit enables hygienic direct filling of trays and syringes without the risk of cross-contamination.

“The Pentamix Lite automatic mixing unit allows offices to start automatic mixing almost as soon as the device is out of the box,” said Mark Cotton, marketing manager, 3M ESPE. “A staff member simply needs to plug in the mixing unit, insert a foil bag of impression material into the universal cartridge, put the cartridge in the unit, attach a mixing tip and start filling the tray or syringe. The intuitive design makes it simple to put the unit right to work, and its portability means it can be easily moved to wherever it is needed in the office.”

3M ESPE will showcase the new mixing unit at the Chicago Dental Society Midwinter Meeting, February 20-22, in booths 3425 and 3625 at Chicago’s McCormick Place West.
