VisCalor bulk - Highly-filled Thermo-viscous Bulk-fill Composite

Warm it, Flow it, Sculpt it!  VOCO is excited to introduce VisCalor bulk, the worlds’ first thermo-viscous bulk-fill composite that offers an entirely new 2-in-1 technology. Once warmed, VisCalor bulk delivers the viscosity of a flowable, then rapidly cools to body temperature once placed—allowing for the immediate sculptability of a packable. 

With an 83% fill rate by weight and a 4mm depth of cure, VisCalor bulk saves time by eliminating procedural steps and the need for additional materials used as a restorative base, liner or occlusal capping layer, effectively making VisCalor bulk two restoratives in one.

Previously, clinicians used heat to soften the consistency of a composite, but they were not able to totally transform its viscosity to a flowable consistency. Today, VOCO’s Thermo-viscous Technology (TVT) has achieved that transformation! VisCalor bulk’s unique technology is based on an entirely new monomer system and special silane coating of its glass fillers. This breakthrough technology, along with a new capsule design that is optimized for heat transfer, results in a unique but designed behavior of the restorative when warmed. Truly an exceptional innovation, VisCalor bulk offers speed and simplicity to streamline your restorative dentistry.

VisCalor bulk’s high fill rate, low shrinkage of 1.44% and excellent wear rate ensure the longevity and structural stability of the restoration. Its long and narrow capsule tip provides greater access to difficult-to-reach areas to ensure a bubble-free application, minimizing the potential for incipient decay and long-term failures. For enhanced esthetics, VisCalor bulk has a low water absorption and is available in four shades: Universal, A1, A2 and A3; with the versatile Universal shade requiring only a 10-second light cure.

Warm it, Flow it, Sculpt it – simplify your restorative procedures with VOCO’s VisCalor bulk while delivering an extremely high quality, long-term restorative solution.

VOCO Retraction Paste - The Essential Element for Precision Impressions
Product News
(Neu)

Introducing VOCO Retraction Paste, an astringent paste with aluminum chloride that effectively widens and dries the gingival sulcus, creating the ideal conditions for accurate and successful conventional or digital impressions.

 

VOCO Retraction Paste features a custom-engineered capsule with a long, fine, flexible plastic tip rather than metal, that avoids damage to the gingiva and allows for precise application. Its 2-stage viscosity makes for simple application. First, the paste easily flows under low pressure out of the capsule into the sulcus with minimal extrusion force, then once in place its viscosity increases to remain stable as it temporarily widens the sulcus. At 0.3 g per cap, VOCO Retraction Paste capsules contains enough material for up to three teeth.

 

Primarily used for the retraction of the marginal gingiva and moisture management of the gingival sulcus prior to analog or digital impressions, VOCO Retraction Paste can also be used to assist in the cementation of temporary and permanent restorations, and as preparation for Class II and V restorations.

 

The material itself comes in a bright turquoise blue color, providing high contrast to tooth structure and gingiva, ensuring that the paste is visible and can be easily rinsed off after only 1 – 2 minutes.

 

VOCO Retraction Paste can save up to 50% of the practitioner’s procedural time compared to other methods and brands, and it can be used as a replacement for, or in combination with a retraction cord.

VOCO Prolfuorid Varnish - New Pina Colada Flavor
Product News
Profluorid® Varnish has been a success story since its introduction to the US ma

VOCO Profluorid® Varnish has been a success story since its introduction to the US market in 2009. With its low film thickness, subtle, great-tasting flavors and smooth feel, Profluorid Varnish quickly gained U.S. popularity and today is one of the leading brands of Fluoride Varnish with dentists, hygienists, and patients.  VOCO is now expanding its line of Profluorid Varnish flavors to include Pina Colada, the refreshing mix of pineapples and coconuts to compliment the current lineup of caramel, mint, cherry, bubblegum, melon and cola lime. Packaged in the same easy-to-use SingleDose delivery system and providing the same quick uptake formulation, Profluorid Varnish’s great tasting Pina Colada flavor is sure to expand on the success Profluorid Varnish has already enjoyed.

VOCO Profluorid Varnish is ideally suited for the treatment of hypersensitive teeth as well as sensitive root surfaces. Treatment with VPV is also a sensible precaution following professional cleaning and polishing, in order to replenish any depleted calcium fluoride depots. The fluoride content is 22,600 ppm fluoride (≙ 5 % sodium fluoride).

VOCO is proud to present V-Print Splint Comfort, their new FDA 510k-cleared biocompatible 3D printing resin, for the production of clear, strong thermo-flexible therapeutic splints and night guards that are durable and esthetic.

 

V-Print Splint Comfort thermo-flexibility allows for a precise fit to the teeth for optimal patient comfort. The high flexural strength and excellent wear resistance permits the fabrication of devices as thin as 1mm. The easy to polish V-Print Splint Comfort is clear, color-stable and odorless. All V-Print resins are sedimentation-free and therefore do not require shaking or “rolling” prior to use.

 

V-Print Splint is part of a large and growing line of 3D printer materials from VOCO, and is engineered to work with, as well as validated for, a growing number of open-source 3D printers that include Asiga, Dental Wings, RapidShape, Microlay, MiiCraft, Ackuretta, Shera, and Straumann. And like all V-Print resins, it is included in the design software from 3Shape and Exocad.

Press Release: Caps Warmer
Product News

VOCO presents the VOCO Caps Warmer, a preheating device for composite and nano-ORMOCER restorative unit dose capsules. The VOCO Caps Warmer can easily warm one unit-dose capsule while it is loaded in a VOCO Caps dispenser, and simultaneously warm four extra caps and two instruments, giving the device a total of seven warming bays.

 

The VOCO Caps Warmer assists in making composite and nano-ORMOCER restorative materials easier to extrude and manipulate, particularly if stored in a dry environment. Furthermore, warmer, more viscous material will have a softer consistency, allowing the material to better adapt to the imperfections, micro-etch pattern or small fissures within the prep. Warming an instrument will make the sculpting of a composite easier and more precise.

 

The VOCO Caps Warmer has three different temperature settings: 98 °F (37 °C), 130 °F (54 °C) and 155 °F (68 °C). Each temperature setting can be selected to achieve a different viscosity depending on the material being warmed, resulting in increased adaptation, and simplifying application.

 

The VOCO Caps Warmer is optimized for VOCO restorative capsules, allowing for the perfect fit and enabling the best heat transfer while also ensuring that all capsules and instruments are warmed uniformly. Warming VOCO composites will not decrease or modify their physical properties. The VOCO Caps Warmer simply changes the way in which the material functions temporarily, allowing for diversity in handling during placement.

 

Upon initial power up, the VOCO Caps Warmer reaches the desired temperature within 15-20 minutes, maintains a steady temperature throughout the day, and it is equipped with a mechanism that will turn the machine off after 10 hours of continuous use to avoid burning out the heating element. Once it reaches its set temperature, its ability to warm individual capsules depends on the specific material placed in the VOCO Caps Warmer but, in general, takes about three minutes.
