- BulkEZ
- A competitive Dual-cure composite
Bond Strength (MPa)
Unlike other dual-cure composites, BulkEZ is compatible with all bonding agents.
Bond strengths of BulkEZ and a competitive dual-cure composite on dentine, using a popular total-etch bonding agent. BulkEZ exhibits fully compatible bonding results, while the competition exhibits marginal bonding.
Radiopacity
With a radiopacity of 320% Al, BulkEZ can easily be seen on a radiograph
Flexural Strength
BulkEZ’s flexural strength is among the best in dental composites
Setting Time
Time saving especially with deep and multiple fillings
Radiopacity
BulkEZ contains both nano-fillers and highly radiopaque fillers. The material starts as a flowable and once fully cured, will have similar physical properties as traditional light cure composites with a high radiopacity of 320% Al – making it easily visible on a radiograph.
The Right Shrinkage
Illustration of self-cure and light-cure shrinkage behavior.
BulkEZ self-cure: exhibits shrinkage towards the bottom and side walls.

No Gaps or Voids
Why use anything else to risk compromising your restorations?
Bulk-fill composites were filled and cured in composite cavities.

Best Interproximal Margins
Microleakage results of Class II restorations after 5,000 thermal cycles between 5/50 °C and dye penetration.
BulkEZ: Best interproximal margins, no microleakage along the interproximal margins.
A competitive light curing bulk-fill composite: gaps and microleakage along the interproximal margins.
Microleakage Scores
Best interproximal margin, no microleakage, reduces shrinkage stress and post-op sensitivity.
