Light-Curing Flowable Composite Base for 4mm Bulk Placement
Description:
Tetric® N-Flow Bulk Fill by Ivoclar is a flowable, light-curing, radiopaque composite for posterior restorative treatment. It is applied as an initial layer in increments up to 4mm in Class I and II restorations. Its opacity increases during polymerization, helping mask discolored tooth structure.
Tetric® N-Flow Bulk Fill must be covered with a layer of methacrylate-based universal or posterior composite, such as Tetric® N-Ceram or Tetric® N-Ceram Bulk Fill.
Features:
Flowable consistency for placement as an initial composite layer
Maximum increment thickness of 4mm
Opacity increases during light-curing
Light-curing in the wavelength range of 400–500nm
Three universal shades:
IVA
IVB
IVW
Indications
Initial layer or first increment in Class I and II composite restorations in permanent posterior teeth
Restoration of primary teeth
Benefits:
4mm bulk placement reduces the number of initial layers needed compared with conventional 2mm placement
Increased opacity after curing supports masking of discolored tooth structure
Complements a universal or posterior composite covering layer in a bulk-fill restorative workflow
