Shofu Zirconomer Improved
Zirconomer Improved is a reinforced glass ionomer restorative material, enhanced with special zirconia fillers. It offers the strength and durability of amalgam while providing the protective benefits of glass ionomer, without the risks associated with mercury. Its sustained fluoride release provides continuous protection, making it ideal for high-caries-risk patients. Zirconomer Improved is suitable for a wide range of restorations, including permanent posterior restorations, structural cores, and bases requiring high strength and longevity.
Features:
- Amalgam-like Strength with Glass Ionomer Protection: Combines the durability and resilience of silver amalgam with the protective benefits of glass ionomer.
- Enhanced Edge Strength & Marginal Adaptation: Ensures superior fit and resistance to microleakage.
- High Translucency & Mechanical Strength: Offers excellent flexural modulus, compressive strength, and natural tooth-like translucency.
- Improved Handling & Mixing: Easy to manipulate with smooth consistency.
- Exceptional Resistance: Withstands abrasion and erosion for long-lasting restorations.
- Remarkable Radiopacity: Ensures clear visibility on radiographs for accurate diagnosis.
- Sustained Fluoride Release: Provides continuous anti-cariogenic protection, making it ideal for high caries-risk cases.
- Minimally Invasive Procedures: Chemically bonds to enamel and dentin with a tooth-like thermal expansion coefficient, reducing interfacial stress and the risk of failure.
- Packable & Condensable: Mimics the handling of amalgam without the hazards of mercury, corrosion, or expansion.
- Versatile Applications: Suitable for Class I & II restorations, structural bases in sandwich techniques, core build-ups, and root surfaces under overdentures. Also effective in pediatric and geriatric cases, as well as for long-term temporary restorations of fractured cusps and amalgam repairs, and in Atraumatic Restorative Treatment (ART) techniques.
