Herculite XRV Ultra is a nanohybrid version of Herculite XRV (microhybrid), that incorporates more biomimetic, “tooth-like” features into a restoration. Based on the latest nanofiller technology, in addition to offering improved handling, polishability and wear resistance, Herculite XRV Ultra delivers an improved lifelike appearance to final restorations by replicating the opalescence and fluorescence of the natural tooth. Herculite restoration after 13 years Case courtesy of A. A. Boghosian, J. L. Drummond and E.P. Lautenschlager – Study conducted by Northwestern University The Advantages of Nanotechnology Herculite Ultra’s advanced nanotechnology delivers additional benefits that can’t be found in traditional microhybrid composites. As a nanohybrid composite, Herculite XRV Ultra combines conventional hybrid fillers with smaller filler particles in size of about 50 nm. These smaller particles enable Herculite XRV Ultra to deliver improved polish and clinical gloss, better aesthetics and superior mechanical strength. Compared to Other Composites Plucking, or natural wear over time, tends to occur faster in restorations with larger particles, decreasing the overall life and esthetics of the restoration. When polymerized, the large prepolymerized particles virtually disappear and the surface is easily polishable. The polished surface consists only of nanohybrid particles below the wavelength of visible light. Nanohybrid composite 21
