Key Features & Benefits

• Designed specifically for Narrow Platform (NP) implants

• Accurately transfers implant depth, position, and angulation to digital systems

• PEEK material minimizes reflection for improved scan accuracy

• Ensures reliable alignment between implant and CAD/CAM prosthetic design

• Supports efficient digital workflows and reduces impression-related errors

• NP-specific geometry prevents platform mismatch

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q: Which implants is this scan post compatible with?
This scan post is compatible only with Alfa Gate Narrow Platform (NP) implants.

Q: What is the role of a scan post in digital dentistry?
A scan post transfers the exact implant position to digital scanning software for CAD/CAM prosthetic fabrication.

Q: Why is PEEK used as the material?
PEEK provides optimal optical properties for scanning, reducing glare and improving scan accuracy.

Q: Can this scan post be used with SP, RP, RC, or S-Line implants?
No. It is not compatible with platforms other than NP.

Q: Is this scan post reusable?
Yes. It can be reused after proper cleaning and sterilization according to prosthetic component protocols.
