Filtek LS Low Shrink Posterior

3MESPE introduces the Filtek LS Low Shrink Posterior Restorative System, the first direct-posterior composite to achieve less than 1% polymerization shrinkage, while still offering clinicians excellent handling, strong mechanical properties and natural-looking restorations.

3M ESPE has revolutionized the approach to controlling shrinkage with the development of Silorane chemistry. Silorane chemistry uses ring-opening polymerization resulting in the lowest shrinking composite available on the market today.

The advanced Silorane technology increases ambient light stability up to a convenient 9 minutes of handling time under operatory light. Additionally, it is easy to place, even in horizontal layers, and its sculptability enables the creation of occlusal anatomy before curing. The revolutionary new ring-opening polymerization regiment requires the use of a dedicated system adhesive: 3M ESPE LS System Adhesive Self-Etch Primer and Bond.

The self-etch adhesive is available in 2 vials that must be used consecutively; LS Self-Etch Primer used before LS Bond. Combined with LS primer and bond, Filtek LS restorative provides a simple posterior restorative system for dentists who value low-shrink technology. The complete restorative system features 4 popular radiopaque shades, in 1 opacity level, and is delivered in capsules and syringes.

At 3M ESPE, our pace is driven by our customers’ input and market dynamics coupled with our research and development process, which is in place to ensure that there is a clear need for new products we introduce, and that they do what we say they’ll do.
