What is C2F (Conversion to Final) – Small Hole Technology

C2F (patent pending) is the CHROME philosophy of Small Hole Technology. C2F means delivering immediate prosthetics during a CHROME surgery with 2.5mm holes, rather than the typical industry-standard larger holes. Small Hole Technology dramatically improves the performance of CHROME prosthetics by maintaining the principal structure of the manufactured material, preserving the ideally designed occlusion, providing an extra-oral method of equilibration, creating a master cast on the day of surgery, delivering a beautifully crafted prosthetic without resin filled holes and faked-in occlusion, and providing the patient with what appears to be a final prosthetic.

CHROME sets the standard for efficient chairside prosthetic conversion, setting up the case for a simplified final restorative protocol

Chairside prosthesis conversion with CHROME is a straightforward process. Using standard tools and applying knowledge of simple conversion techniques, the doctor, the staff, and or a dental technician can quickly process the surgical pick-up into a lovely prosthesis ready for seating in just 15 minutes.

Items needed for conversion:

Titanium copings – 2/implant site
Stellar flowable acrylic (Voco and a few other non-shrinkage materials are ideal)
Small composite / endo tips for small areas (optional)
Lab Handpiece with a selection of aggressive and fine burs, polishing wheels, polishing paste
Glaze and Light cure (optional but will help after adjustment)
Compressed air

ROE Provides chairside support. We have a fee for this service. Our goal is to deliver a beautiful prosthesis ready for seating, while at the same time, teach the staff to complete the conversion so the savings can be seen immediately over other full arch processes.
