Does the sound of the drill make your patients (especially the little ones) feel uncomfortable and anxious?
Changing that experience starts with the chemistry you use at the chairside. BRIX3000® is a papain-based enzymatic gel that fundamentally shifts the way you approach caries removal. By selectively softening only the infected tissue while leaving healthy dentin completely untouched, it allows for a precise, "no-drill" restoration.
Whether you’re treating a nervous child or a patient with dental phobia, BRIX3000®. allows you to provide high-quality care in a calm, controlled environment.

Did you know that composite materials can shrink by up to 2-3% during polymerization?
While this may seem minimal, it can generate stress at the tooth–restoration interface - potentially leading to marginal gaps, microleakage, postoperative sensitivity and , in the case of large fillings, even tooth fracture.
This highlights the importance of proper layering techniques, controlled light curing, and material selection.
Because long-term success starts at the moment of placement. 💙
How much time could you save without compromising on clinical quality?
In this video, David Grössbauer, Product Manager at Ivoclar, explains why the Tetric N2-Line is the ultimate solution for a high-efficiency restorative workflow. Designed to streamline your daily routine, this line offers up to 51% time savings when used alongside complementary Ivoclar products.
