,Kuraray’s CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal composite uses Light Diffusion Technology for superior blending and esthetics with posterior restorations,
,If your operatory shelves are overflowing with multiple tubes of composites to match the 16 VITA shades, and you’re routinely tossing out cartons of expired and unused product, consider the problem solved. With one shade for all posterior restorations, Kuraray’s CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal makes shade selection a thing of the past— streamlining your restorative workflow and simplifying your inventory shelves., ,
, ,“It mimics the nature of the tooth very, very well to the point of an undetectable restoration.”,—Troy Schmedding, DDS, AAACD, , ,“You can use CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal in probably 80% of your posterior restorations,” said Troy Schmedding, DDS, AAACD, in Walnut Creek, CA. “You’ll find a very nice blend with it, everything will look great, and you and your patient will be very happy with the outcome,” he added., ,Kuraray’s innovative Light Diffusion Technology, combined with a specific level of translucency, allows restorations to diffuse light similarly to natural tooth structure. As a result, CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal does not require a blocker or opaquer., ,“The Light Diffusion Technology allows the material to accept, absorb, and pass light through it, which is unlike any previous composites,” Dr. Schmedding explained. “This is what allows you to give an adequate blend, in receiving and bringing in the natural tooth structures that you’re incorporating this composite into. It mimics the nature of the tooth very, very well to the point of an undetectable restoration,” he added., ,With CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal, clinicians will find superior color adaptation, and the material will integrate easily and smoothly into surrounding tooth structure, making preparation margins virtually invisible., ,“Certainly, I get very nice responses from patients,” Dr. Schmedding confided. “I’ve heard a lot of, ‘I can’t even tell you did any work!’ which is, ultimately, what we’re all looking to hear.”, ,In addition to exceptional color matching, CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal is a light-cure, radiopaque material that provides superior polishability and a high viscosity that affords easy handling and placement. With a working time of over 4 minutes under ambient light—significantly longer than similar products on the market—clinicians will find it especially helpful when sculpting anatomical aspects into restorations., ,“I find the handling to be extremely acceptable,” Dr. Schmedding commented. “A lot of that is due to its formulation, and how they’ve composed the filler particles in a more spherical manner, which means you won’t find tacky edges and it doesn’t stick to instruments. It’s also very easy to manipulate this composite.”, ,Available in both traditional syringes or pre-loaded tips, CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal displays excellent wear resistance properties, with low shrinkage stress., ,“This composite has a wonderful filler load and displays very high strength, with the ability of withstand day-to-day use as well as the long-term forces placed on it, which is so important,” Dr. Schmedding added., ,“CLEARFIL MAJESTY ES-2 Universal is certainly a tried and true composite that you can use in a vast majority of your cases, and you’ll find an easier simplicity, in terms of stocking and supplies that you need for a composite filling,” Dr. Schmedding said. “I think this is the top handling universal composite on the market today.”, ,
