Dmg O – Bite (Bite Registration)

DMG O-Bite

DMG O-Bite is a high-performance bite registration material designed to deliver exceptional accuracy, predictability, and speed. Developed using a proprietary vinyl polysiloxane (VPS) formulation, O-Bite provides extremely stable and precise bite registrations with outstanding resistance to compression and breakage.

With a very high final hardness (Shore A ≥ 93), O-Bite ensures that mounted bite records remain dimensionally stable without flexing. Its minimal bite resistance improves patient comfort, while fast curing and easy trimming enhance clinical efficiency.
