WHY LC GLASS-IONOMERS?
1. Adjustable manipulation time according to the dentist needs
2. Improved aesthetics and higher translucency3. Increased mechanical properties of the restoration4. Preservation of favorable properties of glass-ionomers
AESTHETICS OF GLASS-IONOMER CEMENTS
ADVANTAGES OF KAVITAN® LC
Easy Manipulation
- Fast mixing- Easy application- Non-sticky consistency- Sufficient manipulation time (3min)- Short polymerization time (20s)- Easy shaping and polishing
ADVANTAGES OF KAVITAN® LC
High Resistance
- High compressive and flexural strength (182 and 57MPa) - Excellent depth of polymerization (4,2mm)- High wear resistance- Long-term fluoride release- Biocompatibility
ADVANTAGES OF KAVITAN® LC
Natural Aesthetics
-Available in VITA shades - A2, A3, B3, C3-Lower opacity-Very good finishing and polishing-Natural appearance of the restoration
INDICATIONS KAVITAN® LC
• Class V and III restoration in permanent
teeth
• Class I and II restoration not loaded with
occlusal forces
• Class I, II, III and V restoration in
deciduous teeth
• Adhesive liners under composite or
amalgam fillings
INDICATIONS KAVITAN® LC
• Core build-ups prior to preparation for
crowns, inlays or onlays
• Class I, II, III, and V laminated
restorations • Fissure sealing
HOW TO MAKE A FILLING FROM GIC?
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• using of appropriate instruments (bowles, brushes...)
• choosing the cement colour
1. Clean the tooth surface
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• preparation of carious lesions
• smoothing of cavity margin
2. Cavity preparation
CAVITY PREPARATION
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• do not over-dry dentin!
• apply KAVITAN CONDITIONER for 10s
• (remove the „smear layer“)
3. Preparation of the cavity
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
4. Cement preparation
• dose the powder and liquid (in mixing ratio 2 : 1)
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• pull the powder into liquid in 2 – 4 parts
4. Cement preparation
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
4. Cement preparation
• mixing time max. 30 – 45 s
• homogenous and plastic consistency
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• place the mixed cement (Centrix tips, etc.)
• using of transparent foils is recommended
5. Filling application
MANIPULATION SCHEDULE
Polymerization
20s
Mixing Working time
30 - 45s 3 min
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• light-cure for 20s
• removal of excessing• amount of material
6. Polymerization
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• use apropriate instruments:(burs, gum rotary instruments, flexi-discs, polyshing paste)
7. Finishing
COOL !!!
WORKING SCHEME IN VITRO
• apply LC VARNISH to protect the surface
7. Polishing
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LC GLASS-IONOMERS AND COMPOMERS?
LC glass-ionomers:• based on acidobasic• reaction• contains 5% of resin
only• fluoride release
Anticarigennous efect
Compomers:• based on composite
resin (90%)• minimal fluoride
release
Anticarigennous efect ???
KAVITAN® LClight-cured
glass-ionomer cement for all generation
replacement of amalgam - children semipermanent restoration - adults cervical lesions - seniors
KAVITAN® LC• appropriate combination with
KAVITAN KONDICIONER = removal „smear layer“
KAVITAN® LC• appropriate combination
with LC VARNISH = to protect the surface
