Description
- Universal Shade: The material is available in one universal shade, eliminating the need for shade selection and simplifying the restorative process.
- Visible Light Cured: SDR material is cured using visible light, allowing for precise control over the curing process. This ensures thorough polymerization and reliable restoration hardness.
- Enhanced Adaptation: The self-leveling characteristic of SDR material facilitates intimate adaptation to the prepared cavity walls, enhancing the marginal integrity and reducing the risk of microleakage.
- Easy Overlay: SDR material is designed to be overlaid with a methacrylate-based universal or posterior composite for replacing missing occlusal or facial enamel. This allows for seamless integration of the restorative materials and optimal esthetic outcomes.
- High Radiopacity: The material’s radiopacity is high, which aids in accurate diagnosis and assessment of the restoration of dental radiographs.
- Compatible with Direct Restorations: SDR material can be used as a base in Class I and II direct restorations, providing a stable foundation for the placement of additional composite materials.
- Liner Application: SDR material can also be used as a liner under direct restorative materials, particularly as a Class II box liner. This further supports the restoration and helps protect the tooth structure.
- Reduced Treatment Time: The ability to place SDR material in larger increments (up to 4mm) and its self-leveling properties allow for faster and more efficient restorative procedures, reducing treatment time for both the dentist and the patient.
