Platinum Plus
Platinum Plus™ is a palladium-free noble alloy-available exclusively from Argen-that was created in response to the increasingly high cost of palladium. Platinum Plus is a versatile and robust alloy that outperforms even Argen's most popular Noble alloy, NobleCrown NF, which contains 25% palladium and is considerably more expensive. Platinum Plus is stronger and more ductile than NobleCrown NF, making it easier to grind and better for thin wall restorations.

3.4-mm Standard Ridge LOCATOR® Implant System
The introduction of the 3.4-mm Zest LOCATOR Implant System expands the indications for use to support both narrow and standard ridge cases. Design features include aggressive threads for stability, a roughened surface for superior outcomes, and reduced vertical height. These benefits, coupled with the simplicity of a two-part system, make the LOCATOR Implant System a cost-effective and predictable choice for implants for partially and fully edentulous patients.
