Pulpdent, in association with Prestige Dental Ltd, is announcing that, in the recent Dental Advisor Award Review, Activa BioActive Restorative received a clinical performance rating of 98 per cent at the two-year recall.

Results are based on a two-year review of 158 restorations, placed with and without the use of a bonding agent, and show:

 

Unlike traditional aesthetic restorative materials, Activa BioActive stimulates apatite formation at the tooth-material interface, which reduces sensitivity, guards against secondary caries, and seals margins against microleakage and failure. The material is moisture-friendly and contains a shock-absorbing rubberised resin component and bioactive glass fillers that mimic the physical and chemical properties of natural teeth. It delivers all the advantages of glass ionomers and composites, is dual-cure, durable, releases more calcium, phosphate, fluoride ions than GI’s and is Bisphenol A, Bis-GMA and BPA derivative-free.

Activa BioActive was awarded the Dental Advisor Top Bioactive Product in 2016 and 2017. 

Acriva BioActive is distributed in the UK by Prestige Dental. For more information, please contact Rachel Jane on 07879 140286, email rachelj@prestige-dental.co.uk or visit www.pulpdent.uk
