The science behind Admira Fusion nano-ORMOCER

[@jeromehugues]

What are the residues after abrasion and wear ? Where there can go in the organism if they're as so tiny ? Is there even possible way to know if the nano tech is dangerous or not ?

What exact kind of barium salt is added to the silicon oxide for Admira Fusion?

[@jennafreimark1894]

I am really enthusiastic about this product though the statement of it containing additional metals of which are not specified draws questioning? Can this get addressed please?

[@avicenna8438]

It seems that the metal ions are added to increase radiopacity (this was mentioned in the video). Radiopacity is the ability to show up on an x-ray, and it is a property that I think all dental fillings have to some extent. I'm not sure why it's so important to the manufacturers; perhaps dentists want to be able to identify fillings on an x-ray scan. I'm not an expert, but after doing a little research I've found that zirconium, aluminum, and barium are, among others, some of the metals used to increase radiopacity. Again, it seems that all fillings use these types of metals, so I'm not sure whether Admira Fusion is any different from an average dental composite in this regard. There's an interesting research paper which you can find by searching for this: "Radiopacity of Dental Materials - Avicenna Journal of Dental Research"

The benefit of the innovative ORMOCER technology is that all ingredients are based on the same main component, which is silicon oxide. This applies to the resin monomers and the fillers. The fillers can simply be seen as conventional glass, which is pure silicon oxide. However, to increase the visibility under X-ray, dental glass fillers contain additional components to a little extend. These could be aluminum, barium or ytterbium. They are not incorporated in the glass structure as pure elementary metal, but as metal oxides or metal salts. For instance, aluminum oxide or barium sulfate. In case of Admira Fusion product family we use silicon oxide glass that additionally contains barium salt.

@@VOCOAmerica Isn't silicon dioxide loaded with nanoparticles? synthetic particles? How is this a good thing?

[@goldfingers8763]

Admira fusion 5 contain any toxins at all accept the classic monomers that it not conatain ? Its realese inorgnic or any toxic matirials to the mouth or blood stream ? And if yes , what are the matirials it release , thanks in advance 🙏

[@sahibnasirri5581]

it say no monomers but how about methacrylate monomers you mentioned in video 2:20

[@thecount5995]

exactly my surprise. did you get any further information about this? please reply

[@sahibnasirri5581]

@@thecount5995 No , i haven't requested any info, but I think they mean no classic monomers

[@sherischneider2672]

Could someone please provide some information on what the metal atoms are. Another comment said they are probably zirconium, aluminum, or barium. Do they provide an ingredient list for these types of materials? Is any of this released during the curing process or use?

[@VOCOAmerica]

We use silicon oxide glass that additionally contains barium salt. 3rd party cytotoxicity tests have proven than Admira Fusion is probably most biocompatible resin based restorative material available at this time.

@@VOCOAmerica Is the barium salt in a nonsoluble form i.e barium sulfate? Thank you in advance

@@inner28. I would like to know this too.

WHAT exactly are the "metal atoms" ??? (What type of metal???)

[@jennafreimark1894]

did you ever find an answer?
