CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ Posterior is a resin composite with high strength and great optical properties developed for posterior restorations and suitable even for the most demanding patients. Figure 1 shows the initial clinical situation with insufficient resin composite restorations in the lower molars. After removal of the old fillings, the cavities were treated with CLEARFIL™ SE BOND 2 (Figure 2).

Then, I restored them with CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ Posterior in the A2 Classic shade (Figure 3). The fissures were highlighted with brown color modifier. Finally, finishing was performed in three steps: The excess of composite resin was removed with a fine-grained diamond bur. Final contouring was accomplished with a carbide bur, before CLEARFIL™ Twist DIA was used to obtain a natural gloss (Figure 4).

CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ Posterior is characterized by high mechanical strength, hardness and bending strength, a low coefficient of thermal expansion, low polymerization shrinkage and good aesthetics. Due to these features and a reliable long-term behavior, CLEARFIL MAJESTY™ Posterior should have a place in every dental office for direct posterior restorations. Excellent outcomes are achievable and therefore I recommend its use.
