Dyract XP

DSB10

Overview

The history of Dyract

The first generation of Dyract was introduced in 1993. It was developed in an attempt to combine the best properties of composites and glass-ionomers. Composites offer surface hardness, physical strength, low shrinkage and resistance to wear, while glass-ionomers offer low technique sensitivity and release fluoride ions, but have the disadvantage of being rather opaque and very brittle.
Dyract is a generation of compomer restorative materials developed by DENTSPLY. Long-term fluoride release is characteristic for this product group.Today with more than 250 full papers listed in PubMed on fluoride-releasing restoratives [Wiegand et al., 2007]1 it can be concluded that both glass-ionomers and DENTSPLY compomers show cariostatic properties under simulated cariogenic conditions in vitro.

Dyract XP is an additional brand of Dyract® eXtra. Therefore, characteristics applying to Dyract eXtra apply to Dyract XP as well. Dyract XP is available in the most popular Vita* shades.
