Ivoclar Tetric N-Flow Composite Refill

Tetric N-Flow by Ivoclar Vivadent is a cutting-edge light-curing dental composite, meticulously engineered with nano-optimized technology. This flowable nano-hybrid composite is prized for its exceptional versatility and clinical performance. Its excellent wetting behavior ensures seamless and precise application in even the most challenging areas of dental work. Tetric N-Flow stands out for its remarkable stability, making it an excellent choice for Class V restorations, including cervical caries, root erosion, and wedge-shaped defects. Moreover, its high radiopacity supports precise diagnostic imaging, allowing for accurate assessments of restorations. This composite’s nano-hybrid nature strikes a balance between strength, durability, and esthetics, offering both mechanical integrity and a natural appearance. Tetric N-Flow is an ideal complement to Tetric N-Ceram for esthetic restorations. Available in a range of shades, it accommodates various clinical needs, making it a trusted choice for dental professionals across a spectrum of restorative and esthetic dental procedures.

Key Specification:

Available Shades: 

• A1, A2, A3, A3.5, B1,B2

Direction to Use:

Patient Preparation:

• Begin by preparing the patient for the dental procedure, ensuring proper isolation and anesthesia if needed.

Isolation and Moisture Control:

• Maintain a dry and isolated working environment. This is crucial for the bonding and curing process.

Tooth Preparation:

• Prepare the tooth as required, such as cavity preparation for restoration. Ensure that the tooth is clean and free of debris.

Bonding System Application:

• Apply the appropriate bonding system according. This step is crucial for achieving proper adhesion between the composite and the tooth structure.

Matrix Placement (if needed):

• If you’re working on a Class II or similar restoration, use a matrix system to establish proper tooth contours.

Tetric N-Flow Application:

• Dispense the Tetric N-Flow composite material in the desired shade into the prepared area. Ensure that it is evenly distributed and properly adapted to the tooth surface. For Class II restorations, you may apply it incrementally.

Contouring and Shaping:

• Sculpt and shape the composite material to achieve the desired tooth anatomy. You can use dental instruments to aid in contouring and adapt the material as needed.

Light-Curing:

• Use a compatible light-curing unit to polymerize the composite material. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for the appropriate exposure time and light intensity. Ensure that the entire surface is adequately cured.

Finishing and Polishing:

• After curing, finish, and polish the restoration as needed to achieve the desired esthetics and occlusion.

Final Assessment:

• Examine the restoration for any imperfections or discrepancies. Make any necessary adjustments or refinements.

Patient Instructions:

• Provide the patient with post-operative care instructions, including oral hygiene guidelines and any restrictions on eating or drinking

Packaging:

• 1 x 2gm syringe
