Ionomer), which provides pre- dictable aesthetics and better function. These are bio-aesthet- ics materials that allow fluoride release and recharge. You can restore a small cavity removing only the affected area because the S-PRG fillers help re-miner- alise the tooth structure. S-PGR Technology is effec- tive and is based on eight years of clinical trials. The new on-go- ing studies use MiCD protocols and newly developed materials. They were introduced in 2010 at the main dental research venue, the congress of the International Association for Dental Research (IADR) in Barcelona, Spain. The Giomer Family The following are the second- generation giomers (advanced bio-aesthetic restorative mate- rials) with S-PRG technology, which helps remineralise the tooth structure. Beautifil II, ideal for restor- ing anterior and postrior teeth due to its excellent physical properties, outstanding han- dling characteristics, anti- plaque effect, fluoride release and recharge. Excellent natu- ral shade reproduction can be achieved with a chameleon ef- fect using any of the universal shades that blends well with surrounding teeth, making the restoration undetectable. Beautifil Flow Plus, ap- proved for all indications, in- cluding Class II, is a novel way to complete restorations quickly and easily using a single mate- rial, filled all the way up to the occlusal surface.
