Plasma surface treatment is a technique that can improve the quality and durability of dental prosthetic structures, such as implant posts. By applying plasma to the surface of these structures, contaminants can be removed and wettability can be increased. This enhances the adhesion between the implant and the surrounding tissue, leading to better long-term outcomes.

Henniker's HPT-100 low temperature Plasma Asher is routinely used by Researchers at the Qatar Stable Isotope Laboratory within the Department of Earth Science and Engineering at Imperial College London. It plays a key role in the preparation of clumped isotope samples as it has been shown not to affect the original isotopic composition of the samples. You can read the latest article on this newly developed technique and how it is being applied here or to learn more about our HPT-100 system click here.
