1. Super cured: -
One stage cure at elevated temperature under pressure.
-
The composite is heat cured, rather than light cured as in sec cured and conventional cured systems.
-
The inlays here are cured at 120° C at 6 bar pressure under water. Eg. SRISOSIT System contains homogenously filled compressive material with 55% wt% colloidal silica + 20% radiopaque lanthanum fluoride in 7 shades + 6 mix in colors.
2. Secondary cured : -
After initial light curing at room or body temperature additional curing is effected by heat and light. Eg: a. Coltene Brilliant Aesthetic Line System in which the inlay is sec cured in high intensity light system upto 120°C for 7 mins. b. Kulzer Inlay System – Inlay is sec cured in high intensity light in an enclosed light activating unit attachment with internal narrowed surfces. Glass ceramic filled material which 80% filler by mass.
3. Conventional Cure – Normal mechanism Eg. EOS system. Short note on: 1. Indication for composite inlays: a. Good oral hygiene status.
