Dyract XP
Dyract® XP restorations continuously release flouride ions and act on the tooth restoration interface as an acid buffer. Laboratory tests have also confirmed the local cariostatic effect. For patients with a high caries risk Dyract® XP fillings are a logical addition to the appropriate prophylactic measures. The specific properties of Dyract®XP result from combining flouride containing reactive filler glasses with acid modified monomers patented by DENTSPLY
The history of Dyract®
The first generation of Dyract® was introduced in 1993. It was developed in an attempt to combine the best properties of composites and glass-ionomers. Composites offer surface hardness, physical strength, low shrinkage and resistance to wear, while glass-ionomers offer low technique sensitivity and release fluoride ions, but have the disadvantage of being rather opaque and very brittle.
Dyract® is a generation of compomer restorative materials developed by DENTSPLY. Long-term fluoride release is characteristic for this product group.Today with more than 250 full papers listed in PubMed on fluoride-releasing restoratives [Wiegand et al., 2007]1 it can be concluded that both glass-ionomers and DENTSPLY compomers show cariostatic properties under simulated cariogenic conditions in vitro.
Dyract® XP is an additional brand of Dyract® eXtra. Therefore, characteristics applying to Dyract® eXtra apply to Dyract® XP as well. Dyract® XP is available in the most popular Vita* shades.
