Clinical Hints
1. anterior cavities
a. in the case of small cavities
Restore using a one shade layering technique. in most cases the use of one Standard shade alone
will be sufficient. in cases where a higher degree of translucency is needed, one of the Outside
special shades can be selected. See also examples of clinical applications.
b. in the case of large cavities
in most cases a multi shade layering technique will give the best aesthetic results. to block out
shine throughs from the oral cavity or to mask discoloured dentin, select an appropriate inside
special shade and continue to build up with a Standard shade. to make a restoration more life like
e.g. to copy age related changes in appearance, the final layer should consist of an Outside special
shade. See also examples of clinical applications and / or consult the Shade combination chart.
2. Posterior cavities
a. in the case of small cavities
Restore using a one shade layering technique. in most cases the use of one Standard shade alone
will be sufficient. in cases where a higher translucency is needed, one of the Outside special shades
can be selected. See also examples of clinical applications.
b. in the case of deep cavities
Place a flowable composite such as G-ænial Flo or G-ænial universal Flo on the cavity floor. then
place a Standard shade. For optimal aesthetics use an Outside special shade as the final composite
layer. See also examples of clinical applications.
*Gc Fuji lininG® PaSte PaK, Gc Fuji lininG® lc or Gc Fuji iX GP can also be used as a liner
or base material. Follow the respective manufacturer’s instructions for use.
