3M™ Filtek™ Universal Restorative

Beautifully simple.

Improving your workflow starts with simplifying shade selection. The universal opacity and selection of 8 designer shades, plus an Extra White (XW), simplifies your workflow while ensuring you can meet high patient expectations for esthetic results. These 8 designer shades, plus XW, cover the 19 VITA classical and bleach shades.* This allows our composite to cover more tooth shades with less material and inventory, reducing complexity while delivering high-end esthetic restorations. We’ve also introduced a Pink Opaquer (PO) that masks metal and dark stains for improved esthetics and opacity management during coverage. Trusted 3M TRUE nanotechnology provides excellent wear resistance and polish retention, so your beautiful restorations will last.
