Product Description
Because all composites shrink, achieving lasting marginal integrity has been a challenge ... until now.
Any time you restore a patient's tooth, you strive to achieve a "perfect margin" – a smooth connection between the tooth structure and restoration without interruptions or gaps. Even if your technique is perfect, achieving lasting marginal integrity is a challenge because all composites shrink.
Shrinkage is intrinsic to resin chemistry – which is why, to date, no methacrylate-based composite has solved the shrinkage problem.
Scientists at 3M ESPE changed the chemistry to deliver a solution.
The Filtek™ LS Low Shrink Posterior Restorative System is based on 3M ESPE’s latest product innovation: silorane chemistry. This scientific breakthrough results in the lowest volumetric shrinkage to date. The silorane-based composite works with a dedicated self-etch adhesive.
Dedicated adhesive provides excellent bond strength
The Filtek™ LS Low Shrink Posterior Restorative System combines the lowest-shrinking silorane-based composite with a dedicated two-step, self-etching bonding system:
3M™ ESPE™ LS System Adhesive Self-Etch Primer and Bond. It offers excellent bond strength to enamel and dentin, and is the one and only adhesive formulated to provide optimal bonding with such an extraordinarily low-shrinking composite.
NOTE: Filtek™ LS Low Shrink Posterior Restorative is formulated to work only with 3M™ ESPE™ LS System Adhesive. The LS System adhesive is not designed for use with other composites.
