Features:
Strong and very biocompatible, the BaGIC II Glass Ionomer Filling Material, is also convenient to use, with shorter setting time, which will ensure a shorter treatment time for the patient. As noted, it uses fluoride to achieve anticariogenic effect.
Once set, it shows properties very similar to the natural teeth, with analogical thermal expansion. Reliability is ensured by it’s resistance to erosion. The material does not shrink and is not easily soluble in water.
How to use:
Dispensing of powder in liquid
- Add liquid to the powder at a one scoop of powder to one drop of liquid ration, i.e. 2.3/10 grams
- Careful tapping of the bottle against the palm of the hand is enough to mix; DO NOT share or invert it
- Always keep the bottle in vertical position and squeeze it ever so gently, as to avoid bubbles
- The bottle should be kept sealed, closing it right after completion; any drops should be immediately wiped out with a piece of cotton soaked with alcohol
Mixing
- Start with the cavity preparation
- Clean and dry the cavity, but do not desiccate
- Using a product like FineEtch is strongly recommended, in order to remove the smear layer
- Combine the proper amounts of liquid and powder
- Use a syringe, or another appropriate tool, to apply the mixture (be careful for bubbles)
- Contour and use a matrix if you have to
- Two minute for setting
- Remove the matrix once set and immediately use coconut oil, varnish or another GIC dental coating material
