Premium Universal Light-Cure Composite Dental Filling Material
Overview
Revolutionize your restorative procedures with our Premium Universal Light-Cure Composite Dental Filling Material. Engineered for excellence, this advanced composite offers an unparalleled combination of natural aesthetics, exceptional strength, and superior handling characteristics. Designed to meet the demands of both anterior and posterior restorations, it provides dentists with a reliable, versatile, and patient-pleasing solution for long-lasting, beautiful dental work.
Our proprietary formulation leverages state-of-the-art nanotechnology and a precisely optimized resin matrix to deliver a composite that mimics natural tooth structure, ensures high polish retention, and resists wear and fracture under occlusal forces. Achieve predictable, high-quality restorations with ease and confidence.
Key Features & Benefits
1. Natural Tooth-Like Esthetics
- Wide Shade Range: Available in a comprehensive array of VITA® Classical shades, including bleach and opaque options, for seamless color matching to virtually any natural tooth.
- Exceptional Chameleon Effect: Our unique blend of fillers allows the composite to blend naturally with surrounding tooth structure, minimizing visible margins.
- High Polishability & Polish Retention: Achieves a brilliant, long-lasting surface luster that resists staining and maintains its aesthetic appeal over time.
- Fluorescence & Opalescence: Mimics the natural light-handling properties of enamel and dentin for truly invisible restorations.
2. Exceptional Strength & Longevity
- Superior Compressive & Flexural Strength: Engineered to withstand the rigors of the oral environment, providing outstanding resistance to fracture and chipping in both anterior and posterior applications.
- High Wear Resistance: Ensures the integrity and longevity of the restoration, even in high-stress areas, reducing the need for premature replacements.
- Optimal Hardness: Closely matches natural enamel, preventing excessive wear on opposing dentition while resisting attrition.
3. Optimal Handling & Sculptability
- Non-Sticky, Non-Slumping Consistency: Facilitates easy placement and contouring without pulling back on instruments, simplifying complex anatomical build-ups.
- Extended Working Time: Provides ample time for manipulation and precise sculpting under ambient dental operatory lighting.
- Radiopaque: Clearly distinguishable on X-rays, allowing for easy identification of secondary caries, marginal integrity, and subsequent diagnostic evaluation.
4. Superior Adhesion & Marginal Integrity
- Excellent Bond Strength: Forms a strong, reliable bond with etched and primed tooth structure when used with a compatible bonding agent, minimizing the risk of microleakage.
- Minimal Polymerization Shrinkage: Our advanced monomer system and filler technology significantly reduce volumetric shrinkage upon curing, ensuring tight marginal seals and reducing post-operative sensitivity.
5. Biocompatible & Patient-Friendly
- Low Monomer Leachability: Formulated with biocompatible ingredients to minimize potential irritations and ensure patient safety.
- Reduced Post-Operative Sensitivity: Contributes to greater patient comfort after restoration placement.

Directions for Use (Summary)
- Preparation: Isolate the tooth, prepare the cavity, clean thoroughly.
- Etching: Apply phosphoric acid etch to enamel for 15-30 seconds, to dentin for 15 seconds. Rinse thoroughly and lightly air-dry.
- Bonding: Apply a compatible dental adhesive system according to manufacturer's instructions. Light-cure.
- Placement: Dispense desired shade of composite. Apply in increments of no more than 2.0 mm, adapting closely to cavity walls.
- Curing: Light-cure each increment for 20-40 seconds, depending on shade and light intensity.
- Finishing: Contour and adjust occlusion using burs and abrasive discs.
- Polishing: Achieve high-gloss finish using polishing systems (e.g., polishing cups, felts, pastes).
