includes a convenient syringe organizer for easy access to every shade.
Amelogen Plus is also available in compules for clinicians who prefer delivery through a composite gun.
Kleen Sleeve®
Eliminates black specks.
Quadraspense®
Facilitates removal of small
amounts of material.
Quad Key

an open bore delivery barrel.
Amelogen Plus Shades
Intuitive Shade System
Amelogen Plus features a simple, intuitive shade system comprised of the 15 shades most commonly
used in composite restorations: eight dentin, three enamel, three translucent, and one opaque. This
combination makes Amelogen Plus perfect for layering techniques that use one shade or multiple shades.
Combining these shades allows dentists to replicate depth of color. Amelogen Plus also closely emulates
the fluorescence of the natural tooth.

Etch | Ultra-Etch®
Ultra-Etch is a 35% phosphoric acid solution featuring the optimal viscosity to prevent migration.
Its syringe/tip delivery facilitates precise placement and superior control.
Preparation complete.
Rubber dam where needed.
Apply Ultra-Etch for 20 seconds
to dentin/enamel. Air/water
wash with suction for 5 seconds. Blot or blow off surface
water. DO NOT DESICCATE.
Bond | PeakTM Universal Bond
For maximum bond strengths, we recommend Peak Universal Bond. With its unique chemistry, and added
chlorhexidine, which may ensure long-term bond strengths1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Peak Universal Bond bonds to dentin/
enamel, metal, porcelain, zirconia, and composite.
Apply a puddle coat of Peak®
Universal Bond Resin with
an Inspiral Brush tip onto
surfaces and agitate gently for
10 seconds.
Thin and dry with a focused air
stream with 1⁄2 air pressure
at 10mm for 10 seconds to
remove alcohol carrier. Surface
should look glossy but not
puddled or milky.
Light cure for 10 seconds with
VALO or for 20 seconds if using
a standard halogen light.

Restore
Restore | Amelogen Plus
Amelogen Plus is a Bis-GMA-based composite with a smooth consistency that won’t slump or stick to
instruments, which makes it easy to achieve exceptional control and superior results.
With the 15 composite shades most commonly used by dentists, color matching is easy. Simply select the
dentin and enamel shades that most closely match the adjacent teeth, then use a composite instrument to
apply Amelogen Plus in layers, curing after each layer to ensure the final restoration is completely cured.
If you prefer a flowable, super-adaptive first layer, PermaFlo® may be substituted for the initial layer.

Finish
Polish | Jiffy® Polishing System
For a smooth finish and brilliant polish, Ultradent offers the Jiffy polishing system. The abrasive,
impregnated silicon rubber cups, disks, and points are perfect for finishing and polishing composites and
creating surface shine with minimal time and effort. Use with light pressure, as heavy pressure can create
excessive heat and dull the composite.
Use polishers in sequence:
green, yellow, white, blue.
The blue HiShine polishers are
impregnated with diamond
powder to bring a high luster
to composite restorations
(optional).
Use the Jiffy brush as the
final polish (optional).
Seal | PermaSealTM
PermaSeal penetrates microgaps caused by polymerization shrinkage and/or microcracks from
the final polish. It has been proven to reduce microleakage when used as the final seal.1 PermaSeal also
coats provisionals for an instant glazed finish. It works best when etch is used for five seconds to clean
the surface of the restoration and surrounding enamel.
Etch for 5 seconds, rinse.
Deliver a thin coat of
PermaSeal by aggressively
rubbing for 5 seconds.
Air thin and cure for 10
seconds.

Single-Shade Restoration
Step 1 Choose shade of the overall tooth.
Step 2 Deliver etch and bonding agent to fully prepared
tooth. Refer to the Bond section.
Step 3 Place the first 0.5–1mm layer of composite. Place
remaining layers in 2mm increments, replicating the natural
anatomy of the surrounding tooth structure. Cure 20 seconds
between each layer. Refer to the Restore section.

Step 3 Deliver etch and bonding agent to fully prepared
tooth. Refer to the Bond section.
Step 4 Place the first 0.5–1mm layer of dentin composite.
Continue building up additional layers in 2mm increments,
replicating the natural anatomy of the surrounding dentin. Cure
20 seconds between each layer. Refer to the Restore section.
Step 5 Place enamel composite layer building up in 1–2mm
increments, replicating the natural
anatomy of the surrounding enamel. Cure 20 seconds between
each layer. Refer to the Restore section.
Step 6 Shape, finish, polish, and seal. Refer to the Finish

Multiple-Shade Technique (Ultimate for Anterior Esthetics)
This technique is recommended for large restorations and direct
veneers to re-create the essence of natural tooth structure.
Multiple shades reproduce the depth and vitality of adjacent
teeth, and are typically required when placing large Class IV
restorations or direct veneers. Place a darker dentin shade first,
then cover with a thinner, more translucent enamel layer. An
incisal halo may also be necessary.
Step 1 Choose the dentin shade by matching exposed dentin
or by matching it to the cervical 1/3 of the tooth.
Step 2 Choose the value of the overall tooth (brightness).
Step 3 Deliver etch and bonding agent to fully prepared
tooth. Refer to the Bond section.
Step 4 Place the first 0.5–1mm layer of dentin composite.
Continue building up additional layers in 2mm increments,
replicating the natural anatomy of the surrounding dentin. Cure
20 seconds between each layer. Refer to the Restore section.
Step 5 Add characterizations by using an enamel shade and/
or Opaque White.
Step 6 Add translucency to the incisal edge or to replicate the
natural halo, staining, or mamelons.
Step 7 Place enamel composite layer, buliding up in 1–2mm
increments and replicating the natural anatomy of the surrounding
enamel. Cure 20 seconds between each layer. Refer to the Restore
section.
Step 8 Shape, finish, polish, and seal. Refer to the Finish
section.
