title: Achieving ultimate anterior esthetics with a new microhybrid composite.
abstract: Direct bonding is one of the most commonly used forms of restoration for the conservative esthetic improvement of anterior teeth. The major challenges involve selecting composites that have adequate strength as well as provide lifelike optical properties that render the restoration functionally sound and esthetically pleasing. Properties such as high sculptability, wide shade range, varying opacities and translucency, as well as high polishability are essential for gaining absolute control over the restorative process and the attainment of natural-looking results. This article discusses a new composite restorative system and its application in the direct esthetic and functional rehabilitation of the anterior dentition.
