FiltekTM Supreme Flowable Restorative is a low viscosity, visible-light activated, radiopaque, flowable nanocomposite. It is available in a variety of tooth-colored shades. Filtek™ Supreme Flowable Restorative contains Bis GMA, TEGDMA, and Procrylat K resins. The fillers are a combination of an Ytterbium Fluoride filler, a non-agglomerated/non-aggregated surface-modified silica filler, and a surface-modified aggregated zirconia/silica cluster filler. The aggregate has an average cluster particle size of 0.6 to 10 microns. The inorganic filler loading is approximately 65% by weight (46% by volume). Filtek Supreme Flowable Restorative is applied to the tooth following the use of a methacrylate-based dental adhesive such as manufactured by 3M, which permanently bonds the restoration to the tooth structure. When irradiated by light, the methacrylate functionalities of the resin and fillers undergo, in conjunction with the photoinitiator system, a light-induced polymerization to form a hard composite that is bonded to the tooth structure with a permanent dental adhesive. The product is available in both syringe and capsule delivery systems.
