Stela

Stela is an innovative high-performance self-cure composite. Stela offers an unlimited depth of cure and low-stress polymerization with a gap-free interface. There is no need to acid etch or light cure. Stela achieves its ground-breaking properties through a tailored combination of BPA-free resin monomers, optimized ionglass™ fillers (SDI’s bioactive proprietary hybrid glass), and specially surface-modified nanoparticles of amorphous silica. Stela’s outstanding mechanical properties come from a rapid curing reaction. The Stela monomers form polymeric chains and, simultaneously, these chains are rapidly and densely cross-linked to each other, forming a complex web that strongly binds the ionglass™ filler and the amorphous silica, resulting in a strong and resilient restorative material. The Stela snap set fast cure is due to an innovative hydroperoxide-based initiation system that is free of tertiary amine. This ensures fast-setting characteristics, good color stability and an excellent conversion rate. Once cured, Stela’s matrix delivers consistent and reliable strength and durability for all restorations. The simple two step process minimizes operator errors and patient sensitivity with no etch or curing lights required. Stela is the solution for all your clinical needs Stela is available in two delivery systems: Stela Capsule and Stela Automix syringe.
