Shofu Beautifil Bulk Restorative Composite

Shofu Beautifil Bulk Restorative Composite

BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Restorative is a visible light-cured, Giomer-based direct resin composite developed for faster, easier, and simpler restorations using a single increment of up to 4 mm. A unique balance of advanced monomers and fillers delivers deep cure, minimal polymerization shrinkage stress, excellent physical properties, remarkable shade matching, and comprehensive fluoride protection.

Designed as a sculptable paste for dentin and enamel replacement, BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Restorative is ideal for posterior restorations including occlusal surfaces. Its radiopaque formulation allows confident placement and reliable long-term performance.

Indications

• Direct posterior restorations including occlusal surfaces
• Core build-ups
• Restoration of deciduous dentition

Features

• Low polymerization shrinkage and reduced shrinkage stress
• Excellent depth of cure up to 4 mm
• Optimal translucency with superior optical characteristics for remarkable shade match
• High radiopacity and excellent mechanical properties
• S-PRG fillers for sustained fluoride release with anti-plaque effect

Advantages

Simplifies Restorations

Allows dentin or combined dentin and enamel replacement in just one step with a single increment of up to 4 mm.

Deep Cure in Just One Increment

Provides a reliable depth of cure up to 4 mm while maintaining optimal translucency, a critical factor for successful bulk-fill restorations.

Low Polymerization Shrinkage Stress

Formulated with four different resin types and fillers balanced in specific ratios to minimize polymerization shrinkage and stress, while ensuring optimal handling and enhanced wear resistance.

Remarkable Shade Match

The unique filler structure optimizes light transmission and diffusion throughout the material, enabling excellent blending with surrounding tooth structure. S-PRG fillers contribute to a superior chameleon effect, even with a single shade.

Sustained Protection

Based on S-PRG filler technology, BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Restorative provides a fluoride-rich environment through sustained release and recharge of fluoride. It helps neutralize acidogenic bacteria, promotes remineralization, creates an acid-resistant layer, and imparts an anti-plaque effect on the restoration surface.

Directions for Use

• Cleaning: Thoroughly clean the tooth surface to remove plaque.
• Shade selection: Select the appropriate shade using a shade guide while the tooth is still moist.
• Cavity preparation: Prepare the cavity following conventional clinical procedures.
• Isolation: Isolate the treatment area using a rubber dam or appropriate method.
• Matrix placement: Place a matrix band when the cavity involves proximal areas, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Pulp protection: If the cavity is close to the pulp, cap with calcium hydroxide or a suitable liner.
• Adhesive application: Apply dentin adhesive according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Flowable liner: For optimal adaptation, apply a flowable restorative material as a liner.
• Application: Dispense BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Restorative onto a paper pad or apply directly using a suitable dispenser tip. Place material gently and shape as required. In deep cavities, place in increments up to 4 mm.
• Light curing: Light-cure each increment (up to 4 mm) using a dental light-curing unit. For large restorations, divide into sections and cure separately.
• Finishing and polishing: After curing, contour, finish, and polish using conventional techniques.
