3M Silux Plus™ anterior restorative provided superior esthetics that hold luster over time and a high degree of polishability to match enamel. It is available in multiple shade/opacity combinations to match surrounding teeth. It has a non-sticky, non-slumping consistency that adapts easily to margins, making it easy to place, mold, and sculpt. Bonding to tooth structure is accomplished by using a dental adhesive system, such as 3M™ Single Bond or 3M™ Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive Systems. Silux Plus is silica filled (40% by volume) with an average particle size of 0.04 µm. Compared to other dental composites, it has a low diametral tensile strength, medium compressive strength, low-medium compressive modulus, low flexural strength and a low flexural modulus.
