New Double Mandrel BPD
The BPD is an improved design for a universal plastic pattern. The simple to use plastic dovetail intracoronal attachment can be used for non-parallel abutments, segmented bridges, and removable partial dentures with a retentive clasp arm.
The built in mandrel on the male and female provides the convenience of using the BPD in a traditional manner, or inverting it. By inverting the BPD,
* no metal is shown on the occlusal surface for better esthetics.
* placing the male extracoronal of the crown does not require additional space, or abutment reduction.
* On mandibular implant cases, the female tends to follow the taper of the male and allow for some flexing of the lower jaw.
The patterns are produced in a clean burnout plastic. The reduced size provides wider application, better abutment contours, and improved esthetics. Taper ensures easy insertion and well defined proximal plates provide increased stability. A universal attachment. |
