Over the years, advancements in dental materials along with a greater understanding of biomechanics have made for major developments in direct resin composite restorations. Modern restorative materials possess vastly improved physical and optical properties relative to their predecessors allowing for a conservative alternative to invasive procedures for patients with cervical lesions and gingival recession.
One challenge still facing dental professionals, however, is producing a highly-aesthetic and biocompatible result—great smile aesthetics rely on an outcome that not only emulates patient gingiva but establishes harmony between tooth, tissue and restoration. Shofu Dental looks to fill this gap with Beautifil II Gingiva, also known as Beautifil PINK: a direct resin composite that helps clinicians perfect gingival aesthetics simply and effectively.
An extension of the award-winning Beautifil II line of fluoride-releasing, bioactive, nanohybrid composites, in Beautifil II Gingiva, Shofu aims to provide a highly-aesthetic, long-lasting, cost and time-effective restorative solution. Designed specifically for the cervical area, Beautifil II Gingiva is intended for the aesthetic correction of gingival recession, wedge-shaped defects, exposed cervical areas, splinting and re-balancing of pink aesthetics. Ideal for class V restorations, the composite can be implemented to mask exposed implant abutments and crown and bridge margins, modify indirect and provisional restorations and repair worn or fractured dentures.
Available in five shades—light pink, dark pink, orange, brown and violet—Beautifil II Gingiva can produce natural, artistic restorations. Like Shofu’s signature Ceramage composite line, Beautifil II Gingiva’s shades can be blended and layered to meet the aesthetic and clinical needs of all patients. The color modules are highly filled, demonstrate optimal flexural and compressive strength and maintain exceptional color stability before and after curing.
