Correct answer: B — Indirect veneering resin composites
Ceramage and Gradia Plus are indirect veneering resin composites used extraorally in the fabrication or veneering of indirect restorations. They are supplied as laboratory-layered composite systems rather than as prefabricated CAD/CAM blocks. Option A is the most plausible distractor because Gradia Direct is a separate direct-placement composite product; the unqualified Gradia family name can therefore cause confusion. CAD/CAM resin-composite blocks are industrially polymerised milling materials rather than manually layered veneering systems. Resin-modified glass ionomers and elastomeric impression materials have entirely different compositions and clinical functions.
