Versatile flowable composite for everyday dental challenges

AWARD WINNING PRODUCT

For the 9th year in a row, CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow (Low) has been named a Top Product by Dental Advisor, which announced in its JAN/FEB 2024 issue its choices for dental materials and equipment found to deliver the best practice-based performance based on the publication’s annual review of such products.

 

ABOUT THE PRODUCT

CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow, which is available in three different levels of flowability, was the Top Product honoree in the Direct Restorative Category and was also given Editor’s Choice award for its medium viscosity version - Low.

 

Rather than limit practitioners to a single viscosity that might not be ideal for all flowable composite indications, CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow comes in one version firm enough to stay in place when applied, another malleable enough to fashion a specific shape, and a third runny enough to flow into every corner or undercut. The practitioner would thus be able to select the best version for the job at hand—choosing the high flowability variant for cavity linings and as a resin coat in immediate dentin sealing (IDS) procedures, but instead, the super low flowability option for direct veneer procedures and for the build-up of cusps, etc.

Beyond its handling advantages, this universal flowable composite, which incorporates Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.’s Light Diffusion Technology, is highly esthetic, with optical properties that enable the practitioner to fashion lifelike restorations that integrate seamlessly with the surrounding tooth structure.

 

EVALUATION

The flowable composite tested by the 29 DENTAL ADVISOR consultants in 909 uses in their dental practices was the medium flowability variant CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ ES Flow (Low). Their evaluations focused on properties including placement/handling, esthetics, viscosity, and polishability, and they rated all these key features to be “excellent”. This led to a recommendation rate of 100% and a 98% overall clinical rating.

 

REMARKS FROM EVALUATORS

Among their comments were: “The material blended so well with the tooth structure that you had to really look to find the interface.”. “Readily apparent on radiographs.” and “One of the best flowable composites I have used.”.

 

ABOUT DENTAL ADVISOR

The Top Product and Preferred Product Awards conferred by US-based DENTAL ADVISOR were initially introduced to help busy practitioners make sense of the numerous new solutions indicated for less invasive techniques and standardised or simplified procedures, ultimately, to achieve better outcomes regularly.

 

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 fulfil their individual requirements.
