OMNICHROMA: A Unique Composite
Dental care inequality is a major problem in America. According to recent reports, nearly 74 million Americans—about 23% of the population—have no dental coverage. Others are barred from access due to finances, language, location, other health needs and poor oral health literacy. Lack of access to dental care disproportionately affects certain segments of the U.S. population including low-income and underserved populations. As a result, many Americans are burdened with untreated oral problems. These conditions can significantly impede quality of life, affect the ability to find and keep a job and lead to debilitating or even life-threatening systemic health issues.
While Medicare and Medicaid offer a path to care for some Americans, the reach of these programs is limited and those that can’t obtain assistance must rely on alternate routes.
Tokuyama Dental America, an award-winning dental product manufacturer, believes that everyone deserves quality care, the best materials and a smile they can be proud of.
Through their corporate social responsibility initiative, Tokuyama Empowers, the company works closely with nonprofits, free clinics, national and local associations and volunteer dentists to identify and support the needs of providers and patients.
By innovating time- and cost-effective solutions and donating high-quality dental products, Tokuyama helps its partners offer free or affordable care to those in need.
OMNICHROMA®, Tokuyama’s latest universal composite, is one such product that enables dental health care providers to better serve large patient pools. Designed with Smart Chromatic Technology, OMNICHROMA employs nature-inspired structural color to deliver perfectly shade-matched restorations. Capable of reproducing any of the 16 VITA classical shades and beyond, the composite’s unprecedented esthetic properties allow practitioners to circumvent the often-time-consuming process of shade-matching. Moreover, OMNICHROMA further helps operations curb costs and streamline workflow by eliminating large shade inventories and their associated challenges.
Featuring exceptional handling, polishability and strength, OMNICHROMA is suitable for nearly every class of restoration and common indication.
Together, these properties allow providers to efficiently and economically offer comprehensive care and create the beautiful smiles all patients deserve—without compromising strength, durability or performance.
