I used Block-Out to help cover the dark stains under the very thin LUMINEERS.
Block-Out FAQs
The Block-Out formula was developed based on the successful advanced resin technology of Ultra-Bond Plus, but includes a masking agent (opaquer) to successfully block-out staining on teeth. When you need a 3+ shade shift, this is the product of choice! The beauty of Block-Out is the simplicity of eliminating the additional step of shade modification.
Because Block-Out combines the luting cement with the masking agent, there is no need for extra room for the material to sit. Therefore, no removal of sensitive tooth structure is needed!
Block-Out is compatible with any type of porcelain veneer. However, only the combination of Block-Out and LUMINEERS by Cerinate gives you the opportunity to mask dark stains without requiring removal of healthy tooth structure.
Block-Out is available in four bleaching shades: Supreme White, B0, B1, and A1. Block-Out is the product of choice when you need a 3+ shade shift and is ideal for tetracycline and flourosis cases, and any other type of dark stains.
There is a corresponding Try-In Paste included for each of the four shades designed to simulate the fully cured result of the Block-Out.
