Does Omnichroma Really Work?

Tokuyama's Omnichroma claims to be the one shade works for all fillings. In the video I illustrate Class I, II, III, and V fillings restored with their sample pack.

Pros: I really like its viscosity, ability to adapt to different colors, how it polishes, and radiopacity. 
Cons: I did not like its dispensing cartridge, large bevels needed, translucency without using their “blocker”. 

You can see closing the black triangle between 8/9 worked great, I did not use the blocker nor prep these teeth, it was straight bonding. This is on a friend of mine so we’ll see how it holds up. 

On the Class V for #30 you can see a brown spot in the middle of the filling, that’s actually a little bit of hardened caries I chose to leave. Omnichroma includes their “blocker” you’re supposed to put down on the lingual of large anterior fillings and I’m assuming any kind of dark spot like this. Makes me curious how it would look if you restored a posterior tooth  a large amalgam and left stained dentin without using their “blocker”
