TRUST IN WHAT YOU CAN T SEE I S O L A T E T H E R E S T O R A T I V E F I E L D 70% OF CLINICIANS FIND CONTACT CREATION TO BE THE MOST CHALLENGING PART OF A CLASS II RESTORATION. 5 Clinical success starts with a solid foundation When using resin-based restoratives, both isolation and accurate contact creation are essential for success. Choose a matrix system that not only provides anatomically accurate contacts, but also helps create a tight seal around the restorative field. The Palodent Plus sectional matrix system is designed to create predictable, accurate contacts, a tight gingival seal, and can be configured for multiple restorations at once. C R E A T E A S T R O N G B O N D Proceed with strength and confidence 15 SECONDS IS THE MAXIMUM TIME DENTIN SHOULD BE EXPOSED TO ETCHANT. 6 The strongest bond is to etched enamel, but over-etching dentin is a leading cause of post-op sensitivity. Using a universal adhesive with a selective-etch technique allows a durable enamel bond, while minimizing the probability of sensitivity that can result from etching deep dentin. The unique chemistry of Prime&Bond Elect universal adhesive provides high bond strengths and virtually no post-op sensitivity with low film thickness. 5. DentalTown (2012). Restorative Dentistry. Monthly Poll: What is the most challenging part of a Class II Restoration? 6. Am J Dent (2010). Dec; 23 (6): 335-40.
TRANSFORM THE MOST VULNERABLE INTERFACE INTO THE FOUNDATION FOR A SUCCESSFUL RESTORATION. When the floor of the proximal box is secure, you can have complete confidence in your restorations. DENTSPLY Caulk has designed a complete portfolio of products to help you better manage restorative performance at this critical interface, giving you and and your patients an improved Class II experience. C U R E T O C L I N I C A L L Y R E L E V A N T D I S T A N C E S Stay focused along the way The average depth of a Class II is 6mm. 7 Add cuspal inclines, and the curing light tip is easily 8mm from the floor of the proximal box. The amount of light energy delivered by the curing light to the deepest layers of adhesive and composite is a critical factor in the success of a Class II restoration. With a homogenous beam profile and a collimated light beam, the SmartLite Focus curing light delivers light energy uniformly for an even, reliable cure at distances that matter. MANY CURING LIGHTS DELIVER LESS THAN 35% OF THEIR STATED OUTPUT TO THE FLOOR OF A CLASS II PROXIMAL BOX. 8 M A I N T A I N M A R G I N A L I N T E G R I T Y Designed for adaptation If a restorative material doesn t take the form of the cavity prep, gaps may occur. This may lead to post-op sensitivity, microleakage or recurrent decay. SureFil SDR flow bulk fill flowable base can be placed up to 4mm, and has self-leveling properties for excellent cavity adaptation, which is essential for delivering a complete seal at the most vulnerable interface. 82% OF DENTISTS REPORT USING A FLOWABLE AS A LINER IN CLASS II RESTORATIONS TO INCREASE MARGINAL ADAPTATION. 9 7.

It helps the dentist more accurately match tooth shade, since there are a number of variables in shade selection, such as extrinsic staining, lighting and shade availability. Also, the human eye is only accurate 27% of the time in composite shade selection. 11 TPH Spectra composite has a powerful chameleon effect that can cover the entire VITA shade guide with just seven shades.

Surface irregularities left after finishing and polishing can lead to staining, plaque accumulation, gingival irritation and recurrent caries. Also, look and feel can affect patient satisfaction, which is the biggest influencer of returning and referral patients. The Enhance finishing system is the only finisher that can achieve both intermediate and final finishing in one step by simply varying the amount of pressure used. 10. Joiner, 2004. 11.
