• High quality for long-lasting restorations

Tetric N-Ceram is characterized by its excellent esthetic properties and easy handling as well as its clinical longevity. The optimum combination of the glass fillers, spherical mixed oxides and the shrinkage stress reliever ensure high strength and minimal wear - a sound basis
for long-lasting restorations and consequently satisfied patients.

• Visibility on X-rays

Tetric N-Ceram is highly radiopaque (400%AI), since it contains barium glass fillers and ytterbium trifluoride. Therefore, Tetric N-Ceram is easy to distinguish from the tooth structure.

Tetric N-Ceram is a light-curing, radiopaque nano-hybrid composite based on nano-optimized technology for direct restorative procedures.

It can be universally applied to restore teeth in the anterior and posterior region. Its nano-optimized filler technology is responsible for the material’s unique chameleon effect and natural esthetic results. Tetric N-Ceram demonstrates an exceptionally high level of radiopacity and thus significantly facilitates the diagnosis of secondary caries.

Indications

– Class I-V restorations
– Restoration of deciduous teeth
– Extended fissure sealing
– Direct veneers
– Splinting of mobile teeth
– Blocking out of undercuts
– Repair of composite and ceramic veneers

Composition

Tetric N-Ceram consists of dimethacrylates (19-20 wt.%). The fillers contain barium glass, ytterbium trifluoride, mixed oxide and copolymers (80-81 wt.%). Additives, initiators, stabilizers and pigments are additional contents (< 1 wt.%). The total content of inorganic fillers is 55–57 vol.%. The particle size of inorganic fillers is between 40 nm and 3000 nm.

Storage temperature: 2-28 °C (36-82 °F)

• Apply Tetric N-Ceram in layers of max. 2 mm or 1.5 mm (Dentin shade) and contour/adapt the material to the cavity walls using a suitable instrument (e.g. OptraSculpt).
• Polymerize each layer individually according to the table below. Hold the light emission window as closely as possible to the surface of the restorative material.

• Finish the restoration with suitable finishers or fine diamonds. Subsequently, check the occlusion. Polish with silicone polishers (e.g. OptraPol).
