Description
SimpliShade Bulk Fill Flow is a one-shade, flowable bulk-fill composite, requiring a capping layer.
Unique Attributes
- ART Technology – Adaptive Response Technology which offers easy handling and low shrinkage
- One shade blends with 16 VITA Classical shades
- Self-leveling
- Uses rheological modifiers which reduce the viscosity while you use it; once you are done shaping, the viscosity recovers and anatomy stabilizes before light-curing, reducing the need for additional sculpting.
- Cures up to 5mm
Clinical Tips
- Bury the tip in the deepest part of the preparation when extruding the composite.
- Always ensure that the first increment is well placed into the proximal box before bulk filling.
- Wait for the self-leveling feature to take effect, it flows well – avoid over sculpting.
Indications
- Base/liner under Class I and Class II direct restorations
