First unveiled at the 2015 International Dental Show in Cologne, Germany, this March, Visalys Core is the first core buildup material from Kettenbach. The fluoride-containing, dual-curing composite was developed for the fabrication of radiopaque core buildups and core fillings and for cementing root posts.

The product incorporates Active-Connect-Technology (ACT), which enables the material to bond actively with all common light-curing and dual-curing, single-step and multi-step adhesives, without an additional activator. The advantage for users is that it allows them to use the bonding agent they are used to—regardless of whether it is a light-curing or dual-curing agent or a single- or multi-bottle system.

Visalys Core ensures easy and reliable handling with positional stability. At the same time, it exhibits good flowability and low extrusion force. The compressive strength results in a stable monoblock and a secure bond. Optional light curing allows the procedure to be continued immediately; reliable self-curing provides for dependable strength, even on the cavity floor and in root canals. Its polishing characteristics ensure precise preparation; even without light curing, the smear layer is minimal. The product is also free of bisphenol A (BPA) and its derivatives.

Visalys Core is available in dentin and white shades in a 5-ml double syringe and in a 25-ml cartridge. For detailed information about Visalys Core, visit the Kettenbach website at www.kettenbachusa.com.
