2. Isolation
Appropriate isolation, best with a rubber dam (e.g. OptraDam

®

Plus), is

required.

3. Cavity preparation
Cavity preparation is carried out according to the requirements of the
adhesive technique, i.e. protecting the tooth structure. Do not prepare sharp,
internal edges and angles or additional undercuts in caries-free areas. The
dimensions of the cavity are generally determined by the extent of the caries
or the size of the old restoration. Bevel enamel edges in the anterior region.
For the posterior region, only the sharp enamel edges should be rounded
(finishing diamonds, 25–40 µm). Caries-free cervical defects are not
prepared, only cleaned with pumice or other suitable cleaning pastes with
the help of rubber cups or rotary brushes. Subsequently, remove all residue in
the cavity with water spray and dry with water- and oil-free air.

4. Pulp protection / Base
Do not apply a base material when using an enamel/dentin bonding agent.
Only cover very deep areas close to the pulp with a calcium hydroxide
material (e.g. ApexCal

®

) and subsequently use a pressure-resistant cement

(e.g. a glass ionomer cement, such as Vivaglass

®

Liner). Do not cover other

cavity walls, since they can be used to support the bond with an enamel/
dentin adhesive.

5. Matrix / Interdental wedge
Use a wrap around matrix for cavities affecting the proximal area or a
sectional matrix and wedge it.

6. Conditioning / Application of the bonding agent
Condition and apply the bonding agent according to the Instructions for Use
of the product in use. We recommend using Syntac

®

(with phosphoric acid

etching) or ExciTE

®

F (with phosphoric acid etching) or the self-etching

adhesive AdheSE

®

.

7. Application of Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill

For an optimum result, apply Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill in layers of max.
4 mm and adapt with a suitable instrument (e.g. OptraSculpt). Use a
special contact point instrument (e.g. the bifurcated OptraContact) for
large cavities where the contacts are difficult to create.

– Sufficient exposure to the curing light prevents incomplete polymeriza-

tion. For the recommendations regarding exposure time and light
intensity see Table 1.

When using a metal matrix, additionally polymerize the composite
material from the buccal or lingual/palatal aspect after removing the
matrix, if no Bluephase polymerization light is used or the light probe
cannot be ideally positioned, e.g. distant to composite or diverging
scattering angle.

– In many cases, a flowable composite is used today as an initial layer to

create an even cavity floor and to facilitate the adaptation of the
subsequently used restorative material. A flowable composite (e.g. Tetric
EvoFlow

®

) can be used as a thin initial layer. This optional layer has to be

cured separately (please refer to the respective Instructions for Use).

8. Finishing / Checking the occlusion / Polishing
Remove excess material with suitable finishers or fine diamonds after poly-
merization. Remove proximal excess with diamond or tungsten carbide
finishers, finishing strips, or flexible finishing discs. Check the occlusion and
articulation and apply appropriate grinding corrections to prevent premature
contacts or undesired articulation paths on the surface of the restorations.
Use silicone polishers (e.g. OptraPol

®

Next Generation) as well as polishing

discs and polishing strips to polish the restorations to a durable high gloss.

Additional information
1. Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill can be used in combination with Tetric

EvoCeram and Tetric EvoFlow.

2. In the case of repair, additional Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill can be directly

applied to polymerized material. If the Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill restora-
tion has already been polished, it must first be roughened and wetted
with Heliobond before fresh Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill is applied.

3. Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill should have ambient temperature when

applied. Cool temperatures render the material difficult to extrude.

4.

For single use only. If Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill is applied from the

Cavifil directly in the mouth of the patient, the Cavifil must not be

used for more than one patient due to hygienic reasons (prevention of
cross-contamination between patients).

5. Syringes or Cavifils should not be disinfected with oxidizing disinfection

agents.

6. The recommended increment thickness is based on hardness profile

measurements.

Warning
Unpolymerized Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill should not come in contact with
skin, mucous membrane, or eyes. Unpolymerized Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill
may have a slight irritating effect and may lead to a sensitization against
methacrylates. Commercial medical gloves do not provide protection against
the sensitizing effect of methacrylates.

Storage
– Storage temperature 2–28 °C / 36–82 °F.
– Close syringes / Cavifils immediately after usage. Exposure to light causes

premature polymerization.

Do not use Tetric EvoCeram Bulk Fill after the indicated date of expiration.

– Shelf life: see information on Cavifils, syringes and packages.

Keep material out of children’s reach.
