- Versatile application and shading options
The nano-modifier contained in Tetric N-Ceram imparts the material with outstanding modelling properties. The material does not stick to instruments. Nano-particles are responsible for the material’s exceptional polishing properties. The integrated nano-colour pigments are characteristic of the technology used in Tetric N-Ceram. Together with the natural translucency of the material, they create a chameleon effect. The nano-colour pigments feature a spherical structure. As they are homogenously distributed in the composite, they are responsible for improving the adjustment of the shade of the restoration to the surrounding natural teeth. As a result, very beautiful restorations are achieved, which are hardly distinguishable from the natural tooth structure. Tetric N-Ceram is available in 16 shades: two dentin shades, ten enamel shades, a highly translucent incisal shade and three bleach shades.
- A well-coordinated system
Tetric N-Ceram forms part of the Tetric N-Collection, a comprehensive composite restorative system for the fabrication of high-quality standard restorations. All the products of this system are coordinated with each other to ensure clinical success. Apart from the universal composite Tetric N-Ceram, Tetric N-Collection comprises the flowable composite Tetric N-Flow as well as the total-etch adhesive Tetric N-Bond, which is best used in conjunction with N-Etch, a 37% phosphoric acid etching gel. In addition, the self-etching adhesive Tetric N-Bond Self-Etch is available.

- Excellent radiopacity
- Good polishability
- Nano-fillers complete the finely tuned filler technology
- Nano-colour pigments are responsible for the material’s unique chameleon effect
- The nano-modifier ensures optimum stability and excellent sculptability
- The material does not stick to the instruments.
Tetric N-Ceram is a light-curing, radiopaque nano-hybrid composite based on nano-optimized technology for direct restorative procedures.
It can be universally applied to restore teeth in the anterior and posterior region. Its nano-optimized filler technology is responsible for the material’s unique chameleon effect and natural esthetic results. Tetric N-Ceram demonstrates an exceptionally high level of radiopacity and thus significantly facilitates the diagnosis of secondary caries.
Tetric N-Ceram is available in 18 shades – 11 enamel, 3 dentin, 1 incisal and 3 bleach shades. It is supplied in both syringes and Cavifils. The Tetric N-Ceram shade range comprises eleven universal materials. Depending on the requirements, they can be combined with three Dentin, one Transpa or three Bleach shades.

Indications
Tetric N-Ceram – Class I-V restorations – Restoration of deciduous teeth – Extended fissure sealing – Direct veneers – Splinting of mobile teeth – Blocking out of undercuts – Repair of composite and ceramic veneers
- Apply Tetric N-Ceram in layers of max. 2 mm or 1.5 mm (Dentin shade) and contour/adapt the material to the cavity walls using a suitable instrument (e.g. OptraSculpt).
- Polymerize each layer individually according to the table below. Hold the light emission window as closely as possible to the surface of the restorative material.
| Light intensity | Exposure time |
| ≥ 500 mW/cm2 | 20 s |
| ≥ 1‘000 mW/cm2 | 10 s |
| Unit Programm | Bluephase N | Bluephase NM | Bluephase NMC |
| High Power | 10 s | 15 s | 15 s |
| Soft Start | 15 s | ------ | ------ |
| Low Power | ------- | ------ | ------ |
- Finish the restoration with suitable finishers or fine diamonds. Subsequently, check the occlusion. Polish with silicone polishers (e.g. OptraPol).
Warning Tetric N-Flow/Tetric N-Ceram –
Avoid contact of unpolymerized material with the skin/mucous membrane and eyes. – Unpolymerized material may have a slight irritating effect and may lead to a sensitization against methacrylates.
– Commercial medical gloves do not provide protection against the sensitizing effect of methacrylates.
