Over forty million teeth are
restored indirectly in
North America every year,
all of which require
provisionalization. The
provisional restoration
plays an important role in
maintaining the
esthetic and functional
aspects of a patient’s
dental health, and has a
significant impact on
the final restoration
placement as well.
Provisional restorations are
also being used for
longer service terms, as the
use of implant
therapy becomes more
popular. Current options,
direct and indirect, suffer
from material and
process limitations, giving
rise to concerns about
wear in service, durability,
load-bearing capability,
or esthetics. Radica™ is a
system for provisional and
diagnostic restorations.
Based on a
visible light
curing (VLC) composite
platform, Radica™ has
been developed to exceed the
performance
criteria of currently
available restorations. It
has
been proven in clinical
study. A simple lab
process offers the dual
benefits of using this
system for a truly lifelike
diagnostic system as
well as a provisional
restoration. |
