Indirect composite restorations can be a wonderful asset in material choices. Cristobal®+, manufactured by DENTSPLY Ceramco, has excellent shade matching, and shade stability characteristics with lasting natural gloss and translucency.
 Because Cristobal®+ is mechanically polished as opposed to glazed, the finish can be refreshed. BisGMA resin is used for its elastic memory, exceptional elastic resilience, and resistance to damage. In a survey of dentists, 83% agree that indirect composite restorations reduce post-op sensitivity, are stronger, and last longer than its direct counterpart.
- Excellent marginal integrity and strength
- Kind to opposing dentition
- Conservative tooth preparation
- Chameleon effect due to clear material at the margins
