It is most commonly discussed in the context of small composite additions, minor repairs, and sealing steps during restorative dentistry. The exact meaning can vary by clinician and case, so it is best understood as a concept rather than a single named product. In practice, it often involves using a flowable or injectable composite resin to blend and finish small areas."}
