Reforpost Metallic - Passive tapered intraradicular post system

Reforpost Metal - Surface texture

Angelus Metal post serrated or roughened surface is more retentive than a smooth one. Controlled grooving of the post and root canal  also increases the retention of the post

Reforpost Metal- Passive post system

It must be cemented passively. Active Screwable posts are harmful to the dental structures

Superior retention is observed in active THREADED POST, but it exerts a greater amount of stress on the remaining tooth structure  which increase the potential for root fracture.

Luting agents for post cementation

Currently there are 3 types of cement available for post cementation Resin cements, GIC  & zinc phosphate.

Self cure resin cement is the material of choice for post cementation as it has highest compressive strength along with negligible solubility. GIC bonds chemically with the dentin and is not technique sensitive. The most traditional of all cements is zinc phosphate, which has adequate physical properties, economic and easy to use as of which it remains as  choice of material  for post cementation for around decades.

Factors affecting retention of post

• Post space preparation 
• Luting Agent
• Post surface Texture
• Post Diameter
• Post Length

Benefits

• Saves clinical time and decreases lab costs
• Easy to use
• Easy to adapt
• No generation of stresses
• Excellent retention for the cement

Time and cost saving

The technique of making prosthesis with pre-fabricated Fiber/Metal posts allows for creation of the post/core in a single session, eliminating steps and laboratory costs

SS WHITE G2 Diamond burs-Worldwide, SS White^® diamonds

Are available in over 1000 sizes and grits, offering a wide selection of instruments to suit individual preferences.

We understand the difference between high and low quality diamond instruments and strictly adhere to 5 key manufacturing requirements that influence quality and durability of SS White^® diamond instruments.

Why use SS White^® diamond instruments?

• Deeply embedded diamond particles for increased durability and sharp cut.
• Perfectly concentric instruments that produce no noticeable vibration or chatter, which improves patient comfort and yields good clinical results.
• Competitively priced, durable and long lasting, SS White^® diamonds are a sound value and backed by a 100% SS White^® guarantee.

5 key manufacturing requirements that influence quality and durability of SS White^® diamond instruments.

Grade of raw materials: SS White^® diamond rotary instruments are made with quality industrial diamonds, either natural or synthetic.

Uniform diamond particle size: High quality diamonds are crushed, then carefully graded for size and quality to assure consistent particle size for a particular grit for efficient cutting, smooth preparations and less vibration.

Uniform diamond particle coating: Optimum spacing of diamond particles is essential for faster, smoother cutting and durability. Each set of diamond instruments manufactured by SS White^® is manually and mechanically monitored to insure consistent and optimal diamond coverage.

Optimum embedding of diamond particles: SS White^® diamond instruments are manufactured utilizing a proprietary galvanic bonding process. Quality diamond instruments require proper embedding of diamond particles within the metal substrate that secures the diamond to the blank to assure an excellent cutting rate after multiple uses. If particles are embedded too deeply in the matrix the result is areas that are void of diamond particles and clinicians will experience slower reduction of the material being cut, which will increase heat buildup and the risk of pulpal damage.

Precisely ground blanks: SS White^® diamonds exceed ISO requirements for concentricity allowing the instruments to run smoothly and vibration free. Exacting control of shank circumference assures concentricity and balance during high rotational speeds.

Force Resistant Solid Carbide Burs

Our burs are engineered to deliver superior consistency, strength and cutting rate with minimal vibration for maximized performance and procedural comfort for you and your patient.

Powerful cutting performance

Carefully designed blade structure, rake angle, flute depth and spiral angulation combined with our specially formulated tungsten carbide results in the powerful cutting performance of our burs. SS White burs are engineered to deliver the most efficient cutting rate & performance for the most popular procedures.

All Carbides Are Not Alike

SS White^® adheres to strict tolerances for concentricity of shank and head profiles during manufacturing. The result is a well-balanced carbide that: delivers minimal vibration when subjected to the rotational speeds of the dental hand-piece and maximizes performance and procedural comfort for you and your patient.

SS White^® brings over 160 years of continuous improvement in the design and manufacturing of dental instruments. In 1947, SS White^® introduced the first carbide bur to the dental profession and we continue to innovate operative, finishing and specialty carbide burs to serve the needs of modern dentistry.

 SS White^® carbide blade are sharper and last longer

SS White^® solid carbide burs are made with high quality fine-grain tungsten carbide, which produces a blade that is sharper and wears longer compared to less expensive coarse grain tungsten carbide. Blades made of fine grain tungsten carbide, retain shape even as they wear. Less expensive, large particle tungsten carbide dulls quickly as the large particles break from the blade or cutting edge

The Bioclear Diamond Wedge is designed to solve many of the difficulties in using traditional wedges. The Diamond Wedge requires less effort to place than traditional wedges due to the diamond shaped cut-out in the tip, which collapses during insertion. The wedge then springs open once through the embrasure, creating a tight seal and preventing the wedge from backing out.

While still maintaining strong tooth separation, the flexibility of the Diamond Wedge creates an excellent marginal adaptation which eliminates the uncontrolled flow of excess composite and minimizes clean up after the composite has been cured.

The Diamond Wedge is offered in both original and long. The Original Diamond Wedge is intended for most cases.

The Long Diamond Wedge is approximately 2mm longer than the original wedge and is intended to be used when working on wider molars.

Anterior Matrix – Bioclear Original Anterior Matrices are anatomically shaped and allow for a modern approach to composite dentistry.

Bioclear Anterior matrices allow for a modern approach to composite dentistry. They have less curvature than the Diastema Closure matrices and are used for everyday restorative dentistry as well as in aesthetic treatments where small spaces need to be filled.

The Bioclear Matrix’s anatomic shape allows for predictable restoration or change of a tooth’s emergence profile. When closing small spaces with a full contact, the matrix is easily used wedge free. When placed into the sulcus, the matrix is stabilized and marginally sealed by the papilla.

Bioclear’s anatomically shaped matrices allow for injection/placement of composite into the embrasure without fear of leaving an overhanging margin. The Bioclear Matrix leaves the interproximal composite smooth and properly contoured

Getting started

Bioclear Matrix is the only completely clear anatomic sectional matrix on the market. It, along with the other Bioclear products, will produce the smoothest embrasures and strongest contacts compared to other matrix systems. The high quality restorations created with the Bioclear Matrix are raising the bar for anterior composites.
Please thoroughly read the instructions and product care guide before use.

Matrix selection

The Bioclear Matrices are anatomic and tooth specific. Use this guide to help select the appropriate matrix. Make sure to confirm that the selected matrix has the correct amount of gingival curvature. If the selected matrix has too much gingival curvature, the restoration will not have an ideal final shape.

Riva luting- Glass Ionomer Luting Cement

• Riva Luting is a conventional, self curing, glass ionomer luting cement designed for final cementation of metal based restorations It chemically bonds to metal substrates and the tooth.

Proprietary

• SDI’s proprietary ion glass™ filler developed by our glass technologists. Ion glass™ is a radiopaque, high ion releasing, reactive glass used in SDI’s range of dental cements. Riva Luting releases substantially higher fluoride to assist with remineralization of the natural dentition

Low Solubility

• Riva Luting has low solubility in the oral environment. This increases the material’s ability to resist disintegration and wear caused by oral acidity.

Setting Time

• Our quick setting property ensures minimal loss of working time.
• Riva Luting significantly shortens chair time and ensures early resistance

High Fluoride Release

• Riva Luting’s free movement of fluoride provides benefits to the tooth. Fluoride plays several significant roles in any caries - prevention program. These include the formation of fluorapatite, which is more acid resistant than hydroxyapatite. Fluorapatite is very important for tooth remineralization.

High Flexural Strength

• High flexural strength enhances longevity of a glass ionomer luting cement by withstanding mastication forces. Riva Luting’s high flexural strength increases its durability in the oral environment and long term ability to retain indirect restorations.

Very low film thickness

• Riva Luting quickly flows into the preparation. A low film thickness (17 microns) allows the seating of tight fitting indirect restorations.

All consultants said they would recommend Permite to their colleagues.

• Not affected by moisture

Permite exhibits the best sealing qualities with no danger of excessive delayed expansion if accidentally contaminated with water-based fluids. Hence, it would seem prudent to select an alloy such as Permite for retrograde fillings.

• Greater choice of setting times and larger choice of capsule sizes

The working and setting times allow large restorations to be condensed and carved without difficulty.

BioClear Evolve Matrices - Anatomically Pre-shaped Posterior matrices are in three widths

Evolve matrices are an evolution in posterior matrices - an improvement on what was already the most advanced and user-friendly mylar matrix in modern posterior restorations, the BioClear Biofit HD, the Evolve Matrices have the same benefits and additional features for posterior cases.

The new features of the BioClear Evolve Matrix Series include:

• Three emergence profile shapes that are color-coded on the
• Matrix heights printed on the matrix for quick identification
• Extra-flared quick-release tabs on the buccal and lingual surfaces that are easier to find and use
• Wide array of sizes (heights) available (the blue comes in 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9mm’s, the orange comes in 6, 7, and 9mm’s, and the pink comes in 6, 7, and 9mm’s)

Blue Evolve:

The Blue Evolve Matrix is color-coded to be easily seen, features an aggressively rounded emergence profile, and comes in five heights to provide an ideal fit.
The occlusal curvature of the matrix creates a rounded marginal ridge with ease. The size and shape is appropriate for most posterior molar cases.
The Blue Evolve's shape is the most curvaceous of all of our posterior matrices and requires a unique insertion method.
To place the matrix, rotate it into place from top to bottom. Doing this expands the base of the matrix so it snaps over the tooth and into place.

Orange Evolve:

This matrix features a flatter emergence profile curvature than the Blue Evolve but is not as flat as the Pink Evolve matrix. The Orange Evolve Matrix is color-coded to be easily seen, features a flatter emergence profile curvature, and comes in three heights to provide an ideal fit.
Orange Evolve was created for instances where the Blue Evolve Matrix or Biofit HD Matrix would invert.

This commonly occurs between maxillary 1st and 2nd molars.

Used For:
•Teeth with root proximity
•Flat teeth

The root proximity often causes a normal sectional matrix to invert occluso-gingivally and buccal-lingualy.
Orange Evolve’s shape is a middle ground between the blue, which is very curvaceous, and pink, which is our flattest posterior matrix.

Pink Evolve:

Commonly used between maxillary 1st and 2nd molars in cases of broad teeth, tight root proximity, or very flat teeth. Often referred to as the Broad Flat Molar Matrix. The Pink Evolve Matrix is color-coded to be easily seen, features a broad emergence profile curvature, and comes in three heights to provide an ideal fit.

Pink Evolve was created for instances where the Blue Evolve Matrix, Biofit HD Matrix, or Orange Evolve Matrix would invert. This commonly occurs between maxillary 1st and 2nd molars.

Used For:
•Very Broad teeth
•Teeth with extreme root proximity
•Very flat teeth

The interproximal of the 1st and 2nd maxillary molars is often much wider buccal-lingually than any other embrasure areas. This can cause a traditional sectional matrix to invert buccal-lingually. The root proximity often causes a normal sectional matrix to invert occluso-gingivally and buccal-lingualy.

Pink Evolve’s shape is our flattest posterior matrix.

The Bioclear Evolve Matrix Height Indicator

The Bioclear Evolve Matrix Height Indicator is used for posterior restorations and has two uses:

Matrix Height Indicator: Numbers are printed on the indicator so the correct Evolve matrix for a restoration is chosen the first time. This helps reduce waste when incorrect matrices are chosen.

Icon Smooth Surface - Caries Infiltrant

Icon smooth surface is an innovative product for the micro-invasive treatment of lesions. It was especially developed for smooth surface infiltration and is particularly suitable for the treatment and masking of white spots.

Principle

Before treatment

Cariogenic acids attacks the enamel and draw out minerals. The tooth becomes porous, so possess lower refractive index than healthy tissue appearing as white spots on the tooth surface.

After treatment

By sealing the pore system by infiltrant, cariogenic acids can no longer penetrate into the lesion, thus stopping the progression of the caries at an early stage.

Initial caries causes discoloration on smooth surfaces

Until now, there was no truly effective treatment option available for these cariogenic white spots, which are often visible after bracket removal.

Fluorosis or enamel developmental defects are treated in a way that is permanently effective. Bleaching alone will not achieve a consistently effective result in most cases of tooth discoloration, and invasive treatment methods like veneer restorations are time-consuming and costly.

Caries infiltration treatment with Icon

Caries infiltration with Icon fills the gap between prophylaxis and filling. It also optically blends in the lesion with the healthy enamel, allowing the innovative method to be used for esthetic treatments of front teeth, where appearance plays an important role.

An ingeniously simple Principle

The infiltration method is simple. After pretreatment with Icon Etch, a highly fluid resin (Icon Infiltrant) is applied to the affected area. Capillary action draws the infiltrant deep into the porous enamel, and it is then light-cured.
The infiltrated area visually takes on the appearance of the surrounding healthy enamel.

Benefits

• Esthetic results on smooth surfaces
• Caries are arrested at an early stage
• Healthy tooth structure is preserved
• No anesthesia or drilling required
• Teeth are restored back to their natural shade
• One quick and easy patient visit
