(1) selection of the composite shade
The base shade is selected at the start of the process.
note
If fillings have to be removed first, the COMPONEER can be applied with the corresponding dentine mass and
filled palatally after the initial light-curing. This is also applicable for tooth extensions or closure of diastema. If
the substrate is destroyed or discoloured, a dentine mass can also be used applied over the whole area (fill cavi-
ties with dentine mass first). This ensure homogenous shading.
Enamel mass can be used for shape corrections or simple shade corrections (Enamel Universal, Enamel White
Opalescent or Bleach Opaque). In general, we recommend applying the COMPONEER with the homologous
enamel shade to prevent discrepancy in shading in the marginal region as much as possible.
Too much enamel makes the restoration grey and too transparent.
