• endodontics
• traumatology

Application:

• fillings in primary and permanent teeth,
• sealing of primary and permanent teeth,
• temporary splinting,
• marking of canal orifices,
• maintaining interdental space,
• raising occlusal height,
• Class I, II, III, IV and V cavities according to Black,
• temporary fixation of splints and retainers,
• improving aesthetics in areas requiring the use of non-tooth colors,
  
  

Advantages:

• wide range of applications,
• 9 colors to choose from,
• satisfaction of young patients,
• winner of the Grand Prix CEDE award,
• using Flow-Color during temporary splinting or retainer placement allows for clear marking of the boundary between the composite and the tooth, eliminating the risk of error when removing temporary fixations,
• protective marking of the enamel boundary when raising occlusal height, allows for composite removal without damaging the tooth surface,
• using flow color for tooth sealing allows parents to independently check the presence of sealant on the teeth,
• the composite allows for all kinds of tinting and imitations restoring the natural appearance of teeth and gums in areas requiring the use of non-tooth colored composites,
