PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA | Resin-based Dental Restorative Material

Description

Description :

PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA is the world’s first universal composite that esthetically matches almost all patients with a single shade. Its uniformly sized supra-nano spherical fillers allow PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA to match every shade, a science that we call Smart Chromatic Technology. Its wide color-matching ability eliminates the shade-taking procedure, reducing composite inventory and saving doctors time and money.

Benefit :
- Unprecedented shade-matching ability and esthetics

- Minimized chair time and reliance on shade-matching procedures

- Exceptional handling, polishability,and strength

- Reduction of inventory of necessary composite shades

- Reduction of expired composite
 

Indications :
- Anterior and posterior restorations

- Composite veneer

- Diastema closure

- Composite/porcelain repair
 

Technical Background :

Tooth Color
- All smiles have something in common,and that is the colors that make up human teeth shades. All shades of teeth express a narrow range of red-to-yellow color. The Munsell Sphere on the right demonstrates the color range of teeth.

- To match every smile, most composite brands require multiple shades.

- That's because most composites today depend on the color of red and yellow dyes added to the resin material to emulate tooth shades. This means that dentists must keep a large inventory of different composites to accommodate a variety of patients.

Smart Chromatic Technology

- PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA exhibits the ultimate wide-range color-matching ability thanks to Tokuyama's Smart Chromatic Technology. The Smart Chromatic Technology is achieved by Tokuyama's uniformly sized 260nm spherical fillers included in PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA.

- Structural color occurs when different wavelengths of light are amplified or weakened by the structure of a material itself, expressing colors other than what the material may actually be.

- PALFIQUE OMNICHROMA utilizes structural color with its 260nm spherical fillers. The fillers are the exact size and shape needed to generate red-to-yellow color as ambient light passes through the composite, without the need of added pigments or dyes. This red-to-yellow color generated by the spherical fillers combines with the reflected color of the patient’s surrounding dentition, creating the perfect match for almost every shade.
