CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow (Low)
DENTAL ADVISOR Top Product to address everyday dental challenges
For the 8th straight year, CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow has been included among DENTAL ADVISOR’S Top Products, which is made up of dental materials and equipment deemed to deliver the best practice-based performance based on the publication’s annual review of such products.
Featured in the Direct Restorative category, CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow comes in three different levels of flowability designed to cover a range of flowable composite indications that cannot be addressed with a single viscosity. Whether the practitioner needs the product to be firm enough to stay put where applied, malleable enough to create a specific shape, or runny enough to flow into every corner or undercut, one of the three versions is appropriate for the job. For example, the high flowability variant is the perfect choice for cavity linings and as a resin coat in immediate dentin sealing (IDS) procedures, while the super low flowability option is suitable for direct veneer procedures and for build-up of posterior cusps etc.
Equipped with Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.’s Light Diffusion Technology, the universal flowable composite integrates seamlessly with the surrounding tooth structure. If no recontouring required, then a glossy surface can be obtained simply by wiping with a cotton roll soaked in alcohol.
The version tested by the 29 DENTAL ADVISOR consultants in more than 900 applications in their dental practices was the medium flowability variant (Low) of CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow. They evaluated properties including placement/handling, aesthetics, viscosity, and polishability and rated all to be “excellent,” with no running during placement and a good adaptation to the cavity walls and when flowed into narrow areas. This led to a recommendation rate of 100 percent and a 98 percent overall clinical rating.
Among their comments were: “The material blended so well with the tooth structure that you had to look hard to find the interface;” “Syringe design prevents oozing from the tip;” and “Readily apparent on radiographs.”
The Top Product or Preferred Product Awards conferred by US-based DENTAL ADVISOR were introduced to help busy practitioners make sense of the numerous new solutions indicated for less invasive techniques, standardized or simplified procedures, and better outcomes on a regular basis. DENTAL ADVISOR conducts its practice-based clinical evaluations and product performance tests shortly after product launch. It publishes results annually online in its January/February issue to help potential users identify high-quality new dental materials and determine which among them are best suited to fulfill their individual requirements.
