BEAUTIFIL-Bulk: Advanced Resin System for Optimal Posterior Restorations
BEAUTIFIL-Bulk is a visible light-cured, Giomer-based direct resin system designed to streamline and simplify restorative procedures, particularly for posterior restorations. This innovative system uses a single increment of up to 4 mm, minimizing the need for layering and reducing chair time. The material’s unique formulation combines advanced monomers and specially engineered fillers to achieve a deep cure, minimal polymerization shrinkage stress, and outstanding physical properties, while delivering superior shade-matching and fluoride protection.
Product Overview
BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Restorative is a light-cured, radiopaque resin specifically designed for posterior restorations, including occlusal surfaces. Its sculptable paste consistency allows it to build up the natural contour of the tooth, providing both dentin and enamel replacement in a single step. BEAUTIFIL-Bulk can be applied in 4 mm increments, making it efficient and time-saving, without compromising durability or aesthetic appeal.
Composition
The carefully balanced composition of BEAUTIFIL-Bulk includes:
- Bis-GMA
- UDMA
- Bis-MPEPP
- TEGDMA
- S-PRG filler (fluoroboroaluminosilicate glass)
- Polymerization initiator
- Pigments and other essential agents
This unique formulation ensures the material’s reliability, ease of handling, and clinical performance.
Indications for Use
BEAUTIFIL-Bulk is indicated for:
- Direct posterior restorations, including occlusal surfaces
- Core buildup procedures
- Deciduous (primary) tooth restorations
Key Advantages OF BEAUTIFIL-Bulk
1. Simplified Restoration Process
With BEAUTIFIL-Bulk, posterior restorations are faster and easier. Its single increment application of up to 4 mm is sufficient for replacing either the dentin layer alone or both dentin and enamel layers, depending on clinical needs.
2. Deep Cure in a Single Increment
Achieving an effective depth of cure is critical in bulk-fill restorations. BEAUTIFIL-Bulk Flowable and Restorative materials cure up to 4 mm deep, providing optimal translucency to ensure the longevity and strength of the restoration. This deep cure capability helps ensure the durability of the restoration.
3. Reduced Polymerization Shrinkage Stress
Polymerization shrinkage stress can lead to compromised restorations and post-operative sensitivity. BEAUTIFIL-Bulk addresses this issue by combining four different types of resins and fillers in a balanced formulation. This mixture minimizes shrinkage stress, provides excellent viscosity for ease of handling, and enhances wear resistance for a longer-lasting restoration.
4. Exceptional Shade Matching
Many conventional bulk-fill materials are overly translucent, preventing an ideal shade match with the surrounding tooth structure. BEAUTIFIL-Bulk’s innovative filler technology optimizes light transmission and diffusion, allowing the material to blend seamlessly with natural tooth color. Its S-PRG fillers interact dynamically with incident light, creating a natural chameleon effect that enhances the aesthetic appeal of the restoration.
5. Sustained Fluoride Protection
BEAUTIFIL-Bulk’s S-PRG filler technology is known for its fluoride-rich environment, offering continuous fluoride release and recharge to protect the restored tooth. These fillers neutralize acidogenic bacterial flora, create an acid-resistant layer, and promote remineralization. This fluoride release also imparts an anti-plaque effect on the restoration surface, contributing to the overall oral health of the patient.
In summary, BEAUTIFIL-Bulk stands out as a versatile, high-performance material for posterior restorations, providing ease of use, aesthetic excellence, and sustained fluoride protection. Its optimized design allows for efficient, single-step restorations with remarkable clinical outcomes.
