Description

Order # 4506

Multi-use Hybrid with Unsurpassed Biocompatibility, Bond Strength, and Versatility

The physical properties of this unique and extremely biocompatible restorative make it the ideal material for countless procedures that you will encounter in your practice. Geristore’s dual-cure, hydrophilic Bis-GMA formulation makes it the product of choice for subgingival lesions and restorations involving soft tissue: – histological biocompatibility, adherence to dentin and cementum, release of fluoride, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and low polymerization shrinkage. A clinical evaluation of Geristore as a restorative material for root caries and cervical erosions showed it to be an acceptable material with 100% Alpha rating for retention, surface texture, and post-operative sensitivity. The auto-mix delivery system, with intra-oral tips, makes dispensing and placement fast and easy.

Applications:

• Class V restorations
• Cavity lining and base material
• Base material for cervical abrasion and erosion lesions
• Small Class I and Class II restorations
• Root caries lesions
• Cement for metal/PFM restorations
• Pulp capping for mechanical pulp exposure
• Restoring deciduous teeth
• Restoring and sealing overdenture abutments
• Subgingival restorative for fractured roots and resorption lesions
• Retrograde filling and root perforations
