FirstPlug® Original is a pioneering, medical-grade PTFE barrier material specifically designed to fill dental implant screw channels. Introduced by 35Newtons in 2021, FirstPlug® Original has quickly gained popularity among dental professionals for its superior properties and convenience. Alongside FirstPlug® Alpha (6 cm individual PTFE rods), FirstPlug® Original provides clinicians with unmatched versatility and ease of use.

Convenient and Compliant

Historically, dental implantology has lacked a dedicated barrier material. Common alternatives—such as cotton, silicone, gutta-percha, and plumber’s tape—presented suboptimal performance or, in the case of plumber’s tape, lacked regulatory approval. FirstPlug® was created to address this gap, offering a reliable, compliant, and convenient solution for managing dental implant screw channels
