Dentsply Sirona’s Surefil one provides the convenience of a glass ionomer with the durability of a composite, according to the company. Procedures can be performed quicker than using composites with a more durable outcome than glass ionomers, Dentsply Sirona said. It is available in five shades, including Bleach White, A1, A2, A3, and A3.5.

Surefil one has an unlimited depth of cure, providing assurance in deep cavities, which enables a complete cure to be obtained without layering, the company said. It can also be light cured, so the restoration can be finished and polished immediately after surface light curing.

Studies have demonstrated that Surefil one restorations are as durable as a composite, according to Dentsply Sirona. In chewing simulations, after 500,000 cycles, no evidence of fractures or damage was present while the glass ionomers tested in this chewing simulation partially showed fractures after fewer than 100,000 chewing cycles, the company said.
