Ivoclar Vivadent OptraSculpt Starter Kit

Composite finishing kit with contouring instrument

Description

Ivoclar Vivadent OptraSculpt and OptraSculpt Pad are contouring instruments suitable for the non-stick shaping and contouring of surfaces. They are especially designed to shape unpolymerized sculptable composites in direct restorative treatments and to contour and smoothen paste-like laboratory composites.

• OptraSculpt and OptraSculpt Pad are modelling instruments designed for the stick-free adaptation, shaping and contouring of uncured, sculptable direct composite restoratives (e.g. IPS Empress Direct, Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill) as well as for the modelling and smoothing of transitions created with laboratory composite in paste form (e.g. SR Nexco Paste).
• The perfectly fitting disposable attachments are inserted into the holding ring on the working end of the autoclavable, hand-held instrument. The non-stick effect, which becomes obvious when composite resin is adapted and contoured with the instrument, renders processing of the restorative material quick and efficient.
• The OptraSculpt modelling attachments in different shapes have been especially adjusted to meet the requirements of occlusal surface and marginal ridge design based on the natural anatomy.
• Therefore, they offer a wide variety of uses. The pad attachments for the OptraSculpt Pad instrument are available in two sizes. They facilitate the sculpting and contouring of extensive defects in the anterior region

Composition:

OptraSculpt:

• OptraSculpt attachments: Polypropylene and SEBS
• OptraSculpt hand instrument: Stainless steel and PEEK

INDICATION:

• Adaptation, shaping and contouring of uncured sculptable composite restoratives. OptraSculpt Pad is especially indicated for Class III, IV and V restorations
• OptraSculpt is particularly suitable for the sculpting and contouring of Class I, II and V restorations

CONTRAINDICATION:

The products should not be used

• If the stipulated working technique cannot be applied
• If a patient is known to be allergic to any of the ingredients of OptraSculpt or OptraSculpt Pad

Features

• OptraSculpt Time-saving contouring due to anti-stick properties
• Three attachment shapes for the professional creation of sophisticated anatomical tooth structures: ball, pointed tip, chisel
• Optimum working angle for the posterior region
• Hygienic dispenser box for easy access to attachments
• Effective contouring for long-term success

• Apart from other factors, contouring significantly influences the long-term success of the treatment, since the correct anatomical shape of the restoration is crucial to the overall health of the chewing system. The attachment shapes and working angle of the OptraSculpt Pad and OptraSculpt instruments have been especially adapted to suit anterior and posterior surfaces. Correctly designed proximal marginal ridges facilitate the cleaning of interdental spaces. Moreover, smooth restoration surfaces minimize the accumulation of plaque, and carefully created margins reduce the occurrence of secondary caries

Easy adaptation

• Non-stick properties: reduce the stickiness of the composite versus the instrument
• Compatibility: attachments are suitable for both instruments
• Working angles are adjusted to the anterior and posterior regions

Professional esthetics

• No marks left by the instrument on the restoration surface
• Reduction of air inclusions in the composite during application
• Homogeneous surface texture

High efficiency

• Efficient, easy contouring due to specially adjusted attachment shapes
• Reduced effort in finishing and polishing

Efficient Esthetics

• OptraSculpt forms a part of the "Direct Restoratives" product category. The products of this category cover the procedure involved in the direct restoration of teeth – from preparation to restoration care. The products are optimally coordinated with each other and enable successful processing and application. You can find more information about the efficient esthetics workflow
