Product Features

The unit-dose delivery of the wash material is convenient and reduces concerns of cross contamination. Each syringe contains enough material for impressions of one to three prepared teeth. The wash material expresses freely from the syringe with excellent intraoral access due to its light weight and small size. The larger auto-mix cartridges allow for easy dispensing of the higher viscosity tray material. Tear resistance and the flow of the material received high ratings and the final restorations fit accurately. The magenta/gray combination provides good color contrast, although the gel-like texture of the wash lacks crispness and makes marginal details difficult to read. Seventy percent of consultants found that StandOut was equivalent to or better than their current impression system and 50% would recommend StandOut to a colleague.
