SDI's Glacier is a universal micro-hybrid composite with super low shrinkage. Glacier exhibits the lowest polymerization shrinkage of 1.5%. Glacier utilises longer resin chains with fewer monomer links to reduce shrinkage. Less links equate to less shrinkage. Lower shrinkage minimises sensitivity and microleakage; an effective seal against microleakage decreases the potential for secondary caries development. Glacier's particle size distribution, with a mean size of 0.7 microns, optimizes wear resistance and polishability for anterior and posterior restorations. Glacier's optimum filler level maximises strength, and minimises wear and shrinkage. Glacier’s compressive strength of 375 MPa enhances longevity by withstanding mastication forces. Glacier is extremely resistant to wear and this resistance prevents loss of anatomic form.
