Ultradent Products, Inc., a leading developer and manufacturer of high-tech dental materials, announces the launch of Transcend™ Universal Composite, a new composite material that delivers unmatched aesthetics and performance. Ultradent designed Transcend Composites to simplify the restorative process, allowing dentists to complete most restorations with just one shade, including the new Ultradent Universal Shade Composite.
Thanks to Ultradent’s Resin Particle Match™ technology, Transcend Composites offer high clarity, ideal shading and coverage, and a perfect match to the surrounding dentition. The new Ultradent Universal Shade Composite offers optimal coverage, helping to cover the underlying tooth color without the need for a cover shade.
“Transcend Composites make it easy for dentists to achieve superior esthetics,” said Neil Jessop, Senior Vice President of Research and Development at Ultradent. “Its unique formula provides the perfect balance of flexibility, strength and gloss, ensuring patients get the long-lasting results they expect. We are particularly excited about Ultradent Universal Shade Composite.”
Transcend Composite’s nano-hybrid formula combines high strength with easy ductility, making it an ideal choice for composite restorations in both anterior and posterior teeth. Transcend Composite’s handling properties are engineered to be strong yet ductile, allowing it to stay firmly in place during handling without sagging or collapse. The material also has excellent wear resistance and is less abrasive to opposing teeth than other commercial composites. Ultradent Universal Shade Composite meets these needs.
In addition to Universal Body Shade, Transcend Composite is available in four dentin shades and two enamel shades for situations where layered restorations are appropriate. Ultradent carefully selected these layered shades to include only the most popular shades in its aesthetic composite resin range, ensuring dentists have the shades they need to complete routine restoration work.
