Venus Diamond
Venus Diamond is a new nano-hybrid universal composite that combines low shrinkage and high strength in a unique way. For less complex restorations obtain excellent results with a single layer of Venus Diamond or use different layers for the ultimate restoration in the more complex cases. This material can adapt uniquely to the colour of the surrounding tooth structure and features an outstandingly natural look.
