Photopolymer dental filling

Photopolymer filling is a plastic material that hardens under the influence of ultraviolet light. It is used to fill the carious area of ​​the tooth, for the restoration of frontal and chewing teeth.

Composite filling

Composite Fillings. Composite fillings are highly durable, long-lasting, and aesthetically pleasing restorations made from epoxy resin-based materials. These strong, wear-resistant materials are especially suitable for restoring molars. One of the key advantages of composite fillings is the wide range of available shades, allowing for a natural, visually seamless result.

Fiberglass filling

Fibreglass Fillings. Fibreglass fillings represent one of the most modern approaches in restorative dentistry. Fibreglass is a unique material that forms a strong chemical bond with composite material, offers high elasticity, and delivers excellent aesthetics. In turn, a material such as fibreglass can solve almost any dental problem. It’s widely used in splinting, prosthetics, and restorative work, offering versatile solutions for complex dental issues.

Light-Cured (Photo-Activated) Fillings

Light-Cured (Photo-Activated) Fillings

Light-Cured (Photo-Activated) Fillings A light-cured composite filling is a type of restorative material that undergoes a molecular transformation when exposed to a high-intensity light source. In simple terms, it’s an innovative dental composite that is highly sensitive to light. Under the illumination of a special curing lamp, the material hardens and takes the desired shape. What sets light-cured fillings apart is their exceptional plasticity, Which allows dentists to shape and adapt them precisely, resulting in restorations that are both functional and aesthetically flawless.
