How to Create an Anterior Restoration with Multiple Shades Using Mosaic Universal Composite
A natural-looking result is critical in the anterior region, but shade matching with a composite resin is only part of the equation. The opacity and translucency of the restorative material is just as important as the interplay of light on the restoration affects the final esthetics.
This case demonstrates how opaque and translucent Mosaic composite shades combine to mimic the optical properties of the surrounding dentition, creating a highly esthetic result.

How to Create Four Common Shade Results with Mosaic Universal Composite
Various shades of Mosaic composite are layered in different combinations to create four shade results: Bleach, Young, Adult, and Senior.
How to Create a Posterior Restoration with Mosaic Composite
This case shows the step-by-step process, from preparation to polish, to complete a posterior restoration. Preparation includes the use of Seek™ caries indicator to identify demineralized dentin that requires removal. The Peak™ adhesive system is used with proper application techniques, and the restoration is light cured with the recommended curing times and the VALO™ curing light. The tooth anatomy is reconstructed with PermaFlo™ flowable composite as the first layer, and then Mosaic composite shades A2 and Enamel Neutral are used to give an esthetic, natural-looking result. Jiffy™ polishers are then used to give the restoration a smooth, highly polished surface.

Highly Sculptable Handing Properties of Mosaic Universal Composite
Mosaic composite provides optimal handling for total control during manipulation. It will not pull, tug, or tear, and it won’t stick to instruments.
Technical Details
Handling
Mosaic universal composite’s consistency is ideally suited for efficiently adapting both anterior and posterior restorations. Once the anatomy of the tooth is formed, the material retains its shape and does not slump.
Strength
Working Time
The working time for Mosaic composite is between 3:30 and 7:30 depending on the power of the light.

Procedures
Mosaic Universal Composite Step by Step
– See Instructions for Use for complete instructions, warnings, and precautions.
-
1
For Class IV restorations, veneers, or diastema closures, we recommend a silicon putty matrix fabricated from diagnostic wax-up.
-
2
Use the matrix as a guide for the basic shape of the restoration and to support the initial lingual placement of material.
-
3
Inner dentin body layer includes the basic hue of the exposed dentin. Apply basic hue (A3 shown) and create mamelons using a carver.
-
4
Cover body and extend enamel edge with appropriate enamel shade (Enamel Neutral shown).
-
5
Make final adjustments with multifluted finishing burs. Use Jiffy™ composite adjusting and polishing cups, points, and disks for smoothing.

FAQs
-
What is the filler composition for Mosaic composite?
The details related to filler composition are proprietary; Mosaic composite contains zirconia-silica glass ceramic and 20 nanometer silica. The filler load is 68% by volume for dentin shades and 56% for enamel shades.
-
What kind of resin is used in Mosaic composite?
Mosaic composite is a Bis-GMA-based composite.
-
Is Mosaic compatible with other bonding systems?
Yes, Mosaic composite is methacrylate-based and compatible with other resin bonding systems. For optimal results, we recommend bonding with the Peak™ Adhesive System.
-
Is it possible to layer Mosaic composite in greater than 2 mm increments?
For adequate polymerization, it is important than Mosaic composite is layered in increments of 2 mm or less.
-
What are the recommended polishing steps?
We recommend the Jiffy™ composite finishing line for shaping and polishing. Use the green (coarse), yellow (medium), and then white (fine) Jiffy adjusting and polishing system for quick shaping. The blue (ultrafine) Jiffy™ HiShine™ is an optional polishing step to provide an extra smooth and a highly polished finish. If extra shine is desired, we recommend using the Jiffy™ Goat Hair Brush with Ultradent™ Diamond Polish Mint.
-
Do the Mosaic Singles require a special dispensing gun?
Mosaic Singles can be dispensed using the Ultradent™ Composite Gun or any standard composite dispensing gun.
