Tetric EvoCeram®
Direct composite technology has evolved
Insensitivity to light combined with veryshort curing time
Tetric EvoCeram gives you both: the ability tocontour the material for an extended lengthof time and fast curing time. A special additive has been incorporated intothe photo-initiator system causing the mate-rial to be less reactive to ambient light (e.g.operatory light), while being highly reactiveto curing lights (e.g. light in the wavelengthrange of 400 to 500 nm). Ivoclar Vivadenthas cleverly succeeded in overcoming a problem that seemed technically unsolvableinitially.
The benefits for the dentist include:
• Stress-free, customized modelling andsculpting of the restoration without therisk of premature curing
• Short polymerization time required foreach increment
Calculate your POD factor in a matter ofseconds
Determine the ideal relationship betweenstress-free processing of the composite andexposure time by calculating your POD (Polymerization On Demand) factor. It can be done in a few seconds and helps you save valuable time.

Coordinated light refraction indices offiller particles, monomer matrix andnano-colour pigments
Translucency
In order to ensure that the composite shadesblend well with the colour of natural denti-tion, particular emphasis is placed on creat-ing a high initial translucency during the pro-duction process, so that eventually compositematerials with three different, lifelike levelsof translucency (T, Enamel, Dentin) are produced.
Filler size
The nano-sized fillers in Tetric EvoCeram (< 550 nm) are smaller than visible light. As a result, light is able to pass through the composite similar to enamel furtherenhancing the true-to-nature characteristicsof Tetric EvoCeram.
Refractive index
The fillers in Tetric EvoCeram (hybrid micro-fillers 700 nm / 400 nm, prepolymers, ytter-bium fluoride, spherical mixed oxide), thenano-colour pigments and the monomerdemonstrate the same light refractionindices. The careful matching of light refraction indices is pivotal to achieving theharmonious integration of the restorationinto the natural dentition.

Four successful studies reporting con-vincing 5-year results
The successful clinical performance of Tetric EvoCeram in anterior and posteriorteeth has been confirmed by various scientificstudies. With an impressive 85 million restorations placed over the past six years,Tetric EvoCeram is a true success story.
Prof. Dr Paul Lambrechts, University ofLeuven, Belgium
“No restorations were lost during the studyperiod; the data gained in this study showthat Tetric EvoCeram exhibits excellent clini-cal performance even after having been inplace for several years.”
Dr Carlos Muñoz, Dr James Dunn, LomaLinda University, California, USA
“After 5 years, none of the restorationsexamined had been lost. Tetric EvoCeram is agood clinical choice for anterior restorations.”
Prof. Dr Antonio Cerutti, University ofBrescia, Italy
“The study results show that the marginalquality of the restorations does not dependon the light intensity. None of the restora-tions placed in this study had to be redone.From a clinical perspective, this speaks infavour of Tetric EvoCeram.”
Dr Arnd Peschke, Ivoclar Vivadent,Schaan, Liechtenstein
“Overall, the posterior teeth of 50 patientswere restored with Tetric EvoCeram. At the5-year recall, 34 patients were examined.The results confirm the high level of successachievable with Tetric EvoCeram: all therestorations are still in place.”

The excellent radiopacity of a composite enables dentists to easilydistinguish it from the dental hard tissue and the changes affectingthe natural tooth structure (e.g. secondary decay). The higher thevalue, the easier it is to make a clear distinction between the com-posite and natural tooth structure on the x-ray. Among the productstested, Tetric EvoCeram is clearly the leading product in this respect.Internal investigation of R&D Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, 2010
Low polymerization shrinkage means less stress on the adhesivebond and less deformation of the dental hard tissue, which results inbetter marginal quality. This is exactly what Tetric EvoCeram offersyou.Internal investigation of R&D Ivoclar Vivadent AG, Schaan, 2010 (Dilatometer, 1 hour)

Tetric EvoCeram: well-balanced compositetechnology with a revamped design andstraightforward colour-coding
Tetric EvoCeram offers ideally coordinatedcomposite technology supplied in state-of-the-art, ergonomic syringes. The new syringes andthe Cavifils are colour-coded according to thetried-and-tested colour coding system basedon A–D shades. New special markings on theproducts make it easy for operators to distin-guish between Dentin and Enamel shades.This ensures that the right syringe is pickedevery time, even if it needs to be selected froma wide variety of shades.
In addition, the Tetric EvoCeram range of ma-terials has been extended to include shadesA2 Dentin, B1 and D2. Due to the wide selec-tion of shades and its harmonious integrationwith the natural tooth structure, Tetric Evo-Ceram allows esthetic results to be achievedwithout difficulty.
The light-curing, radiopaque, universal nano-hybrid composite Tetric EvoCeram is the firstchoice for creating high-end standard restora-tions in the anterior and posterior region.
