Ribbond Ribbon Fiber Splint

Ribbond Ribbon Fiber Splint

Ribbond Ribbon Fiber Splint is a high-strength ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fiber reinforcement material designed for periodontal splinting, dental trauma stabilization, and reinforcement of composite and acrylic restorations. Its specialized cross-link lock-stitch leno weave helps distribute functional forces across the reinforced area while providing flexibility and structural support.

The fiber has minimal memory, allowing it to conform closely to tooth surfaces, contours, and interproximal areas without significant rebound after placement. This adaptability helps facilitate accurate positioning and close integration with composite resin materials during restorative procedures.

With its thin profile, Ribbond can be incorporated into restorations with a minimal bond line while providing reinforcement where needed. The polyethylene fibers offer high fracture resistance and help limit crack propagation within reinforced composite or acrylic structures. Their excellent wettability and compatibility with resin materials support effective bonding and predictable handling.

Ribbond Ribbon Fiber Splint is suitable for a range of dental splinting, restorative reinforcement, trauma stabilization, and prosthetic applications, making it a versatile fiber reinforcement option for both direct and indirect dental procedures.
