A game changer gets ten.

10 years ago, the introduction of SDR changed Posterior Dentistry.

For the first time, a flowable bulk fill Composite made the creation of seamless adaptation easy and convenient.

For 10 years, SDR Plus material has exemplified our mission of creating better, faster, and safer dental care.

Adaptation is the key to long term success

Studies indicate that marginal gaps can lead to the development of wall lesions and can result in secondary caries1, ultimately putting restoration longevity at risk.

Voids and gaps between restoration and cavity walls directly influence secondary caries formation1
Improper adaptation of composite during placement leads to the formation of voids2
High shrinkage stress may lead to marginal gap formation2

Low shrinkage stress

During light-cured polymerization, resin monomers are in chaotic movement as they begin to form the polymer matrix. SDR technology enables the formation of a more relaxed network, minimizing the build-up of stress. This minimizes the risk of gap formation through stress during polymerization and ensures excellent adaptation even in 4mm bulk placement.

Flowability

SDR flow+ material’s unique chemistry helps ensure the longevity and overall quality of a bulk fill restoration. 4mm bulk fill technology is an essential part of ensuring the longevity and overall quality of a bulk fill restoration. SDR flowable bulk fill technology fills and easily adapts to the cavity, flowing deeply into nooks and crannies to provide excellent cavity adaptation during placement.

Efficiency is the key to productivity

Direct restorations represent approximately a third of the annual revenue of a general practice. Increasing the efficiency of the Class II treatment directly impacts day-to-day dental office revenue.5,6 SDR bulk fill technology allows the material to be applied in 4mm increments without an additional liner. This automatically decreases procedural time and inventory.

How do you make the best even better? Make it more versatile.

The upgraded formulation of SDR Plus material adds even more versatility, by introducing new shades and expanding the range of indications.

+ More Shades

In addition to one universal shade, three new A-shades of SDR Plus — A1, A2, and A3 — increase versatility even further in a wide range of cases including visible Class II restorations, primary posterior dentition, Class III and Class V restorations.

+ More Indications

Due to its unique chemistry and improved wear resistance, SDR flow+ material is approved to be used in Class III and Class V restorations where a capping agent wouldn’t be used. This expands our capabilities to include more restoration classes than many other flowable materials.

+Pit & Fissure Sealing

The thin compule allows the material to flow easily into all fissures for highly precise application.

+Core Build-Up

The 4mm depth of cure of SDR flow+ material make it a fast and easy alternative for core build-up. It handles instrumentation and shaping with ease

+ Primary Posterior Dentition

SDR Plus material can be used without an additional universal composite and in increments up to the occlusal surface. Fast and easy application technique make it ideal for the treatment of children.

+ Reliable adhesion

Endodontic cavities are particularly challenging for bulk fill composites, as most are very deep Class I cavities. This maximizes shrinkage stress potential, indicated by a high C-factor. Studies indicate that when high C-factor cavities are filled in bulk, the choice of the composite is an important element to avoiding adhesive debonding.8

SDR Plus material with SDR technology can deal with high C-factor cavities, leading to a tight coronal seal even for post-endodontic cavities.

+ Tight Seal

“SDR Plus ensures a tight seal of the endodontic access cavity – an important factor for long-term endodontic treatment success.”
