Additional Information - Ivoclar Vivadent Tetric EvoCeram Mode D'emploi

Sufficient exposure to the curing light prevents incomplete
polymerization. Therefore, light cure each increment with a
polymerization unit with a light intensity of at least
500 mW/cm 2 (e.g. Astralis
20 seconds. With a light intensity of at least 1100 mW/cm
(e.g. bluephase), the individual increments can be cured
within 10 seconds. Hold the light emission window as
closely as possible to the surface of the restorative
material.
When using a metal matrix, additionally polymerize from
the buccal or lingual/palatal after removing the matrix.
In many cases, a flowable composite is used today as an
initial layer to create an even cavity floor and to facilitate
the adaptation of the subsequently used restorative
material. A flowable composite (e.g. Tetric Flow) can be
used in a thin initial layer. This optional layer has to be
cured separately (please refer to the respective Instructions
for Use).
8. Finishing / Checking the occlusion / Polishing
Remove excess material with suitable finishers (e.g.
Astropol F) or fine diamonds after polymerization. Remove
proximal excess with diamond or tungsten carbide
finishers, finishing strips, or flexible finishing discs. Check
the occlusion and articulation and apply appropriate
grinding corrections to prevent premature contacts or
undesired articulation paths on the surface of the
restorations. Use silicone polishers (e.g. Astropol
Astropol HP or Astrobrush) as well as polishing discs and
polishing strips to polish the restorations to a durable high
gloss.

Additional information

1. If necessary, additional Tetric EvoCeram can be directly
applied to polymerized material. If the Tetric EvoCeram
restoration has already been polished, it must first be
roughened and wetted with Heliobond before fresh
Tetric EvoCeram is applied.
2. Tetric EvoCeram should have room temperature when
applied. Cool temperatures render the material difficult
to extrude.

3. If Tetric EvoCeram is applied from the Cavifil directly in
the mouth of the patient, we recommend using these
Cavifils only once due to hygienic reasons (prevention of
® ) for cross-contamination between patients).

Warning
Unpolymerized Tetric EvoCeram should not come in contact
with skin, mucous membrane, or eyes. Unpolymerized Tetric
EvoCeram may have a slight irritating effect and may lead
to a sensitization against methacrylates.
Commercial medical gloves do not provide protection
against the sensitizing effect of methacrylates.
Storage
– Do not use Tetric EvoCeram after the indicated date of
expiration.
– Storage temperature 2–28 °C / 36–82 °F.
– Close syringes / Cavifils immediately after usage.
Exposure to light causes premature polymerization.
– Shelf life: see information on Cavifils, syringes and
packages.
– Syringes or Cavifils should not be disinfected with
oxidizing disinfection agents.
Keep material out of children's reach.
For use in dentistry only.
