Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill

featuring the Aessencio technology

Time-tested and innovative

Since its introduction 10 years ago, the uni-

versal composite Tetric EvoCeram continues
to be one of the leading composite restora-
tives on the market. It has proven its durabil-
ity in clinical practice.

Tetric EvoCeram was the first product of the

Tetric Evo range. Today, this composite family
comprises four innovative products, which
are representative of the progress that com-
posite technology has undergone in recent
years.

The Tetric Evo product line offers dental

professionals everything they need sculpt-
able and flowable consistencies, lifelike
esthetics, efficiency, longevity, low shrinkage,
colour stability and high wear resistance.

Results from 10 years of research

Tetric EvoCeram is highly valued in dental

practices throughout the world.

Patients can expect composite restorations

that remain intact and maintain their esthetic
appearance over many years.1 Long-term
studies show the exceptional dependability of 1

composite. It demonstrates an unrivalled low translucency for a bulk-fill

material. Therefore, it successfully conceals discoloured dentin.
featuring the Aessencio technology
Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill is particularly suitable for deep cavities due to its
highly flowable and self-levelling properties. A universal composite such
as Tetric EvoCeram or a bulk-fill composite such as Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill is
applied as a covering layer. Both options produce highly esthetic results in
posterior teeth.

The bulk-fill composites from Ivoclar Vivadent
represent a further developed version of the
proven Tetric EvoCeram. The aim of the
development was to simplify and accelerate
layer technique direct restorative treatment procedures and
ensure their predictability, while at the same
time maintaining the customary quality and
esthetics of the restorations.

1
Natural-looking esthetics,
efficiently produced
In the development of bulk-fill composites
Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill Ivoclar Vivadent has taken a decisive step
towards enhancing the esthetics of dental
restorations. Due to the Aessencio technolo-
gy and the patented light initiator called
Ivocerin the product combines efficiency and
esthetics in a very special way.

Two The product has a high technique tolerance.

It can be applied in layers of up to 4 mm,
which can be polymerized in only 10 seconds
layer technique ( 1,000 mW/cm2). The occurrence of
potential flaws, such as the entrapment of

1
air, is prevented. This not only simplifies
layering, but also enhances the polymeriza-
tion result.

Heightened reliability
In cases where it is difficult to estimate the
increment thickeness or it is hard to position
the light guide optimally, the two new
composites ensure proper polymerization.
The highly reactive Ivocerin initiator con-
tained in the formulation is responsible for
this feature.

results are just as esthetic as those achieved
with conventional composites.

Prof. Dr Jrgen Manhart

Department of Restorative Dentistry

With the bulk-fill composite Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill

I can effectively restore even large posterior cavities
while obtaining maximum quality. At the moment, it
can be assumed that Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill will
show a low annual loss rate similar to that of other
proven micro- and nanohybrid composites
(e.g. Tetric EvoCeram).

Prof. Dr Reinhard Hickel

Department of Restorative Dentistry
Munich, Germany

Ivoclar Vivadent is a world leader in the development

of dental initiators. Research is going on at all major
composite manufacturers. Due to the development of
the highly reactive Ivocerin and the new Aessencio
technology, however, Ivoclar Vivadent is one step
ahead in the field of initiators.

Due to the highly reactive light initiator Ivocerin and

the Aessencio technology, Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill is a
unique product that stands out among all the other
flowable materials on the market. Initially, the material
is translucent.

During the curing process, the translucency diminishes

and dentin discolouration is reliably masked. This is
simply ingenious.
Innovative technology skillfully used

Many dentists rely on the products of Ivoclar Vivadent, and with good reason. Clinicians around the world are attracted to the
innovative technology and clinical reliability of the composites of the Tetric Evo product line.

Esthetic optimization
The Aessencio technology represents a significant milestone in the esthetic optimization of bulk-fill composites. During the
polymerization process, the translucency level of Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill changes. This allows stained dentin to be effectively
concealed. 4

The in vitro test demonstrates the effect of the Aessencio technology: The black lines
under the Tetric EvoFlow Bulk Fill sample are clearly visible before polymerization. Due
to the change in the translucency level, they are no longer visible after polymerization.
