Ball attachment

The Cendres + Métaux products Dalbo-PLUS, Dalbo-Classic and Dalbo-B are part of «The Swiss Dalbo-System» which is an innovative concept comprising spherical male parts and female parts which can be combined to bring the optimal solution to a wide range of applications.

  • reliability and durability
  • simplicity
  • universal use
  • compatibility

The compact spherical shape of the Dalbo® ball anchor is extremely resilient. It has been scientifically proven that the special design and the combination with precious metal retention inserts made of Elitor® ensure reliable function and long durability. This significantly reduces wear and tear and patients benefit from long-lasting, high-quality and reliable restorations.

All the female parts are based on the diameter 2.25 male part, in use over 40 years and proven to be effective.

Dalbo plus

Supraradicular, retentive, resilient anchor, adjustable

Characteristics

  • safe and permanent activation is achieved by screwing a lamella retention insert into the housing.
  • retention is adjustable from «soft» to «strong»
  • ideal for implant work
  • the female part exists in two versions at identical height: The version elliptic features a reinforced elliptic retention cap, ensuring secure hold also at highest stress-loads.
  • abutment divergences can be compensated: on root canal caps, depending on activation from 8° – 16°. On implants, depending on the system, up to 40°.
  • simple, infinitely variable adjustment of the denture’s hold, can be executed individually for each patient during treatment
  • high degree of flexibility: three differently dimensioned lamella retention inserts increase the frictional tolerance and can be replaced easily and without time-consuming re-polymerisation of the female part
Ball

Dalbo classic

Supraradicular, retentive, resilient anchor, adjustable

Characteristics

  • the original: Represents the press stud par excellence
  • the ball principle allows degrees of tolerance when placing the male part
  • can be positioned on the root canal cap without a parallelometer, as divergences of 10° are easy to compensate
  • the female part of the elliptic version has a reinforced plastic retention. This ensures that it stays in place in the denture body even under extreme stress.
  • smallest dimensions allow integration even when space is limited
  • decades of practice, proven a hundred thousand times
  • adjustment can be performed individually for each patient during treatment
  • perfectly matched lamellae geometry facilitates activation and optimises fatigue
  • resistance
