Clinical use |
· Sub gingival lesions
· Smooth surfaces
· Anterior aesthetic |
w.r.t (1) Moderate-stress areas requiring optimal polishability (Classes III, IV) |
Wrt (1) Moderate-stress areas requiring optimal Polishability
w.r.t (2) (Classes III, IV) |
Advantages |
· Simulates actual enamel surface
· Highest aesthetic level
· Better wear properties than any other
· High luster and hold their polish over time
· Stain and plaque resistant
· Highest reflective and refractive indices hence more realistic translucency |
· Simulate the dentin of natural tooth structure.
· Higher strength can be used as substructure under microfills enamel layer.
· Most Opaque of the 3 composite types, also great for masking out unwanted color and achieving extreme color changes. |
· exhibit higher polishability
· better surface smoothness
· lifelike opacious translucency |
Disadvantages |
· Less strength than micro and nanohybrid
· Dec. water sorption |
· Less polishable
· More difficult to marginate, and will wear faster than microfill resins.
|
· donot hold their polish long as microfills but better than microhybrids
· More susceptible to plaque and staining over time.
· Less biological compatible with gingival tissues
|
Indications |
· Class III & calss V |
· Anterior and posterior restorations
· Can be used to fill the bulk of the tooth |
· posterior restorations
· veneering manidbular anteriors
· building up incisal edges
· class IV restoration
· increasing cuspid rise
· when the doctor wants to use only one material |
