The Novaloc abutment with DLC coating
Novaloc abutments are patterned after the Locator abutment and have a specialized DLC (diamond-like carbon coating) that makes them extremely wear-resistant. Novaloc abutments are guaranteed 10 years against wear. The extremely smooth surface of the Novaloc abutments also results in less wear on the retentive inserts.
Interchangeability
Novaloc system components are also interchangeable with Locator-style abutments and components, simplifying the integration of Novaloc components into existing “Locator-type” prosthetic solutions (ask us for complete details on compatibility).
Housings and Inserts
Novaloc offers two types of housings (titanium and PEEK) and a wide range of inserts made of PEEK with varying retentive forces.
- PEEK inserts are highly wear resistant and long-lasting, reducing patient visits and expense for ongoing maintenance
- Inserts are easily placed/replaced using the Novaloc tools, simplifying upkeep for both the dental professional and the patient
