Method and system for selectively staining dental composite resin

摘要

A method and system for selectively staining dental composite materials includes an applicator (104) and a disclosing agent (102). In one embodiment, the applicator (104) provides the disclosing agent (102) to a tooth surface and a composite filling of the tooth. The composite filling is selectively stained to reveal the presence and location of the composite filling. In another embodiment, the tooth surface is selectively stained to reveal the presence and location of the composite filling.
