OT Equator For Implants
​
With a low vertical profile of 2.1 mm and diameter of 4.4 mm, the OT Equator is the smallest attachment system on the market. This system offers multiple solutions for overdenture treatment planning when vertical space limitations are a consideration.
Available in two versions, castable and prefabricated titanium abutments which are compatible with any implant brand on the market and manufactured with cuff heights from .5 mm to 7 mm. Female caps are retained by means of a stainless steel housing ranging in four levels of retention, making it easy to process at the dental laboratory or chair side in the dental office.
The unique design and exceptionally low 2.1 mm profile of the OT Equator 4 in 1 System provides exceptional stability and superior retention when compared with other attachment systems. Due to it's lower radius, OT Equator is indicated to correct divergence up to 28 degrees between implants without affecting the functionality of the nylon cap. A complete line of OT Equator accessories and tools are also available.
​
ATTENTION: Where implant divergence exceed the maximum 28 degrees, Sphero Block and Sphero Flex are recommended case plan options.

About Us
Since 1983, the company's centerline philosophy has been to design and manufacture castable spherical attachments with a connecting nylon female component being processed into the removable prosthetic device. Mr. Ezio Nardi, founder of the company, pioneered this simple concept of ball and cap connectors. Over the past 30 years, this technology is the proven standard for RPD's and overdenture prosthetic design, improving superior oral health, functionality, esthetics and patient comfort. Today, Rhein83 is recognized worldwide for its technical expertise in spherical dental attachments, superstructure frame designs, and direct implant abutments.
Smart Products With Purpose
This year, Rhein83 has brought to market several new high quality products for the dentist and dental laboratory with it's primary focus centered on implantology, under the direction of Gianni Storni, VP Technology.Mr. Storni and his technical group have a clear approach. "Does it make sense, will the product offer a solution for the dental team's daily challenges, and be a cost effective treatment plan." This fundamental idealogy goes into every new design concept for product development and manufacturing, and is most essential for Rhein83.
​
The new OT Equator 3 in 1 attachment system, introduced at the 2009 Rome Expo, is an example of this engineering distinction. By vertically reducing the classic OT Cap 2.5 mm sphere to its "equator," the low profile elastic caps use only the bottom half of the sphere, achieving equal functionality and retentive values as its predecessor.The OT Equator line offers the lowest profile and has the least overall displacement of any attachment system on the market, giving the dentist and the technician superior case design options for esthetics and function, especially where space is limited.
Experienced Team Approach
Strong factors that contribute to the continued success of Rhein83 srl and Rhein83 USA are having extremely knowledgeable "live" customer service and technical support team personnel. Even in today's high-tech society of clicks and voice prompts, consumers still prefer to speak with a friendly voice that can assist them quickly with accurate information.Fielding customer phone calls can be as easy as taking an order for replacement caps or as complex as having to provide viable clinical solutions for a multifaceted inherited old case, with divergent implants having little or no information regarding the fixtures, and everything in between.
