Consultants’ Comments
- “Shade matching is excellent.”
- “The handling was much less sticky than other brands and I still get great margins.”
- “The material could be placed easily, the colors matched, and it polished nicely.”
- “The opacity allows it to mask underlying color if needed.”
- “The simple shading system and ability to adapt to the tooth shade were excellent.”
Description
Venus Pearl PURE is a universal nano-hybrid composite for use in all classes of anterior and posterior cases. It is available in four shades; light, medium, dark and bleach.
Unique Attributes
With a balance of Hue, Chroma, and Value, this material can adapt and blend in any situation and does so with a creamy and low-stick consistency. The Kulzer-unique TCD matrix provides very low shrinkage stress and thus a reduction in marginal gap formation and secondary decay. Due to this matrix system, the material is also free of any BPA structure.
Clinical Tips
- Material works best with thin restorations where an enamel shade would normally be used.
- I taped the shade recommendations on each box to help pick between light to medium or medium to dark.
- I figured out the shade matching after a few uses—but initially it was helpful to cure a small amount of the material on the facial surface before treatment to confirm the correct shade.
- I am a fan of warming composite, but with this material I felt it was just the right consistency without it.
- You don’t need to do anything special to get a nice consistency and result.
Indications
Venus Pearl PURE is indicated for Class I-V direct composite restorations as well as direct composite veneers, shape corrections of the teeth, composite splinting, core build-ups, and porcelain repair procedures.
