Product Features
reliaFIL LC is a smooth composite that dispenses easily and is sculptable with minimal sticking to instruments. The potential for fluoride release and recharge is appealing for use in patients with high caries risk. Radiographically, reliaFIL LC is readily apparent. Restorations finished to a smooth surface and polished to a high gloss. The opaque shades are useful for masking dark dentin or filling deep cavities, and the standard shades blend well with the surrounding enamel.
