Superior Wear resistance means timeless beauty and durability.



Exceptional beauty is one reason to prescribe Trublend SLM teeth. Remarkable wear resistance is another. But the most important reason is what they can do for your patients. And your practice.

If patient satisfaction is important to you, Trublend SLM teeth should be, to. They come closer to the look and wear characteristics of natural teeth than any plastic teeth previously available.

Of course, even the finest teeth are only part of a successful denture case. But when you atart with the best, you'll hear more of the three most beautiful words in dentistry: "Thank you, doctor." And you'll receive more word-of-mouth referrals than ever before.

A natural smile is nature's masterpiece.
Your patients want a natural smile, not just an average denture. With your craftsmanship, skills and SLM teeth, you can duplicate nature's masterpiece - a natural smile. Both you ans your patient will smile with confidence.

Each Trublend SLM tooth is a multi-blend of naturally-shaded body material, enveloped in translucent enamel. There are 24 new natural-looking shades, all based on the Bioblend® color-blending method. The color in the cervical area has been intensified. And the incisal and proximal translucency of the anteriors has been subtly enhanced.

Trublend SLM anteriors are available in the most popular Bioform® anterior moulds. They are perfect duplicats of attractive, healthy, natural teeth. Right down to the subtle irregularities and anomalies of the labial anatomy. There are also six different occlusal designs to choose from, so you can meet any clinical requirements, including lingualized occlusion.

All of which makes Trublend SLM teeth an easy choice for all your implant cases, as well as other full and partial dentures.

Teeth of a revolutionary material.
We started with our own IPN® hardened plastic. Reinforced it with friction-fighting molecular structures. And incorporated the toughest plastic known to man - ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.

The result?
Trublend SLM (Sustained Life Material) teeth are 25% more wear-resistant than IPN, the standard for durability, and 71% to 87% more wear-resistant than other premium teeth.1

Trublend SLM teeth also have excellent stain-fighting powers. And an ability to bond easily to any quality denture material.

The warranty of a lifetime.
You've trusted Trubyte teeth for years. And with good reason. As the world's largest manufacturer of denture teeth, we have always emphasized quality control and product leadership.

Now, for Trublend SLM teeth, we've created an unparalleled warranty.

If Trublend SLM teeth wear excessively, fracture, permanently discolor, or craze - anytime within the clinical lifetime of the denture - we'll replace them. Guaranteed.2 And we'll give you a certificate to present to your patient, testimony to the high quality care you provided.

To create a masterpiece, start with the tools of a master.
Our inspiration was an artist's palette. Our object was to communicate quality. The end result was the Trublend SLM Shade guide.

The shade guide is contoured to fit your hand and to make shade evaluation convenient and easy. Ordered in a natural array from light to dark in three color groups, it displays all 24 Trublend SLM shades clearly and elegantly.

The "clinical life of the denture" is defined as any period of time after which individual practitioners deem the need for denture replacement for reasons other than tooth wear.
