Esthetic Restorations that Stand the Test of Time
Versatile, easy-to-place composite offers excellent shade-matching and polishability
Amir Noori E., DDS, had been looking for a composite with a high shine and luster for his practice in Huntington Beach, CA. Luckily, about 5 years ago he discovered Coltene’s BRILLIANT EverGlow universal composite during a product evaluation for Dental Product Shopper. Impressed by its esthetics and polishability, the doctor has never looked back, continuing to restore teeth with BRILLIANT EverGlow to this day.
The universal submicron hybrid composite offers convenient sculptability and stability, excellent polishability, and a long-lasting high luster. Its advanced shade system offers 2 translucency levels and enhanced Duo Shades that allow for flexible single-shade and multi-shade layered restorations. During the DPS evaluation, a team of dentists including Dr. Noori E. found that it was easy to use and to match shades, making it a favorite for anterior restorations.
A key factor for Dr. Noori is the ability to increase efficiency during his restorative procedures. “In a busy dental practice, streamlining is the key,” he said.
This composite affords him the freedom to provide his patients with beautiful, long-lasting restorations while also promoting efficiency in his procedures, thanks to its sophisticated handling. BRILLIANT EverGlow’s smooth consistency and dimensional stability make the material easy to apply in cavities. Elaborately modeled cusps, ledges, and contact points remain intact and do not slump. Further, due to its ideal wettability, the product adheres to the bonded tooth surface rather than sticking to the instruments.
For Dr. Noori E., there are 3 key benefits to BRILLIANT EverGlow:
1. Superior handling: One of BRILLIANT EverGlow’s best features is its sculptability and smooth consistency. “It is efficient, and it reduces my working time for both anterior and posterior restorations,” said Dr. Noori E. By sticking to the bonded enamel rather than instruments, clinicians are able to work with it more easily.
2. Great shade-matching: Featuring a versatile shade system with 2 translucency levels, BRILLIANT EverGlow provides esthetic, single-shade restorations. “Its translucency, combined with the available opaque shades, make this composite an ideal restorative material choice for anterior restorations,” added Dr. Noori E.
3. Excellent luster: Coltene’s composite comes with exceptional polishability for the long term, which is a huge plus for Dr. Noori E. and his patients. “This composite provides a wide selection of shades for both anterior and posterior restorations with great luster and polish, as well as excellent handling,” he said. “This saves time and leaves me with satisfied patients.”
“Its translucency, combined with the available opaque shades, make this composite an ideal restorative material choice for anterior restorations.”
