PV TM STAR FLOW PV INSTRUCTIONS 89114-00 Rev A INSTRUCTIONS
2. Try-in the resin coated porcelain veneers. The unfilled resin protects the silane from contamination. After try in, just brush off the resin with a dry brush, if contaminated, and brush on fresh resin. (If desired, ultrasonically clean the veneer in ethyl alcohol and begin again with the silane step.) 3. Choose the desired shade of StarFlowPV and place on inside of veneer to check shade on unetched tooth. A good starting shade is StarFlowPV Translucent. It is acceptable about 90% of the time. If the color needs to be modified due to show-through of the tooth and a more opaque, lighter shade is desired, try StarFlowPV Light. It works in most cases where the try-in is slightly dark. 1. Vita shades of StarFlow and the Extra Light StarFlowPV are sometimes better choices. The StarFlowPV White Opaquer is very handy as a blender when whiteness and opacity are desired. 2. When color is satisfactory, add additional StarFlow as necessary (to replace that left on the tooth) and place veneer in a dark area to prevent polymerization. If the StarFlowPV seems contaminated, remove with a dry brush and replace. 4. Isolate, when necessary,
with retraction cord, immersed in Visine if necessary for hemostasis. 6. Rinse with water and dry with oil-free air. 7. Isolate teeth to be veneered with interproximal strips to protect adjacent teeth (not being veneered) from the etchant and bonding agent. 8. Etch tooth with Star Etch or another etchant. Wash and follow the adhesive manufacturers instructions for creating a wet or dry field. 9. Place a thin coat of the chosen adhesive on the etched tooth. Note that the unfilled resin, BondStar-E is not cured yet. 10. Remove matrix strips prior to placing veneers on teeth. This step assures complete and passive seating of the veneers, even in multiples. 11. Gently place the veneers on the tooth, preferably all at the same time, and tack in center (around 5 seconds) with small curing light perpendicular to facial surface, avoiding the margins. (A 3 mm diameter tip is ideal.) After tack has fully cured, cure the other margins for about 1-2 seconds. Remove the resulting "jello" using a curette with burnishing motion. Slide a metal matrix band (ordinary Toffelmire #1 is fine) mesial and distal of one tooth at a time and light cure. Note that the metal bands should be placed at the mesial and distal contact of only one tooth at a time, preventing compression difficulty due to additive thickness of more than two bands at a time. 12. Cure the entire veneer fully with the matrix bands in place. Remove bands and move to another tooth, repeating procedure. 13. Finish and polish margins in the usual manner. STORAGE ADDITIONAL NOTES Note that all light curing
luting agents require a translucent restoration. Increases in opacity
require longer curing times or use of a dual cure luting agent.
