Infinix™ Flowable Composite and Bulk Fill Flow Composite

Infinix advanced dental restoratives—Flowable Composite and Bulk Fill Flow Composite—contain Nobio’s proprietary QASi particle technology, which combines a high concentration of antimicrobial molecules that are covalently bound to a solid core.

The Infinix Flowable and Bulk Fill Flow Composites are ideal for posterior restorations.

"The idea is simple, while the science is pure genius. Nobio has developed a chemical with antibacterial properties and incorporated it into Infinix composite. Most composite restorations last just 5 to 7 years due to recurrent caries at the restoration/tooth interface. Infinix solves that problem by basically killing any bacteria that comes in contact with the restoration." — Dr John Flucke
