Dentsply Chemfil Superior Refill 10g Glass Ionomer Cement

Description:

Dentsply ChemFil Superior is a fast-setting glass-ionomer restorative material consisting of a blend of aluminosilicate glass and polyacrylic acid. The powder is mixed with distilled water to produce a filling material that adheres to dentine and enamel producing tightly sealed, strong and esthetic restorations.

Indications:

This material is suitable for use in:

• Class V lesions and cavities
• Class I and II cavities of deciduous teeth
• Class III cavities
• Temporary and semi-permanent restorations
• Fissure fillings (minimal Class I cavities)

CONTRAINDICATIONS:

• Direct or indirect pulp-capping
• Permanent restoration of occlusal stress-bearing areas.

Advantage:

• 1. Adhesion to dentine… that matters in the long-term Develops the desired adhesion and establishes a true, permanent bond to hydroxyapatite even under the moist conditions of cavities close to the gingiva. Excellent adhesion of ChemFil® Superior allows a conservative approach to restoration because minimum cavity preparation is required when carious lesions are restored. Restorations with ChemFil® Superior are long-lasting and durable.
• 2. Proven long-term fluoride release.
• 3. Pleasing aesthetics for more demanding patients
  ChemFil® Superior facilitates superior color match to surrounding enamel,
  resulting in pleasing aesthetics; moreover, its color remains unaffected by oral
  fluids in the long term.
• 4. ‘Snappy’ setting
  ChemFil® Superior maintains a constant viscosity during manipulation and
  placement, and quickly turns into a rock hard mass at the end of the working time;
  this ensures safe and fast restorative treatment.
• 5. Practitioner friendly
  The easy-to-mix behavior of ChemFil® Superior hand-mix allows a high powder
  loading for extra mechanical strength and aesthetics.
