New dental material is formulated to deliver strength, intuitive shade matching, and lifelike aesthetics in restorations.
South Jordan, Utah—Ultradent Products, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of high-tech dental materials, has released FORMA S composite, designed to deliver reliable strength, intuitive shade matching, and lifelike aesthetics in restorations. FORMA S composite features a proprietary zirconia nano-hybrid formula engineered for reliable durability and long-lasting restorations.
Formulated for smooth placement and control, the composite is easy to sculpt, resists slumping, and does not stick to instruments, helping clinicians shape restorations with precision and ample working time, according to Ultradent Products.
FORMA S composite adheres to the VITA classical shade guide, providing intuitive shade selections and natural-looking results. The Body shades offer the ideal balance of translucency and opacity, allowing clinicians to employ natural-looking single-shade technique. For more complex, highly aesthetic cases, the system includes Body, Dentin, Enamel, and Effect shades with seamless opacity transitions for layered restorations that replicate natural dentition.
With flexural strength of 185.54 ± 8.99 MPa and hardness of 64.1 ± 2.9 HK, FORMA S composite is designed to withstand functional demands. Offering excellent mechanical properties, the new composite is 74% to 79% filled by weight and 66% to 71% filled by volume.
