Re: DiamondLite Composite Filling with MSDS (Materials Saftey Data Sheet)

you said:

"One the thing I found is that it does not provide good occulas tooth closure as per one of the medical studies"

Are you a Dentist?  the dr has been using diamondcrown for many years and put it in thousands of patients and he finds it superior for fillings.  it is not a relatively new product.

DiamondLite fillings have Dimethacrylate esters. There is HEMA, a methacrylate, in DiamondBond, which is considered a compound with high risk of causing allergy, but all adhesives contain methacrylate derivatives. I believe DiamondLite and DiamondCrown are the are the best products we have available for fillings to date.

all filling material is toxic.  diamondcrown and diamondlite are of the best biologic fillings available.  what filling material do you or UCLA recommend?  If there is a filling material out there that is less toxic than diamondcrown, i would be interested to know what it is.  we are looking into zirconium oxide.
