Why Immediate Dentine Sealing?

Resin infiltration into the dentine surface is more effective on freshly cut dentine because it is uncontaminated and clean. Immedciate Dentine Sealing protects dentine against contamination with bacteria or remnants of temporary cements. It prevents post-operative sensitivity by sealing dentine tubules. It increases bond strength of the final indirect restoration to the tooth. It often eliniminates the need for anaesthesia during the cementation procedure (when the restoration is delivered in the next appointment). 




Tips & Tricks
  • Placing a rubber dam and isolating neighbouring teeth with teflon tape are always recommended.
  • Use maximum air pressure to dry 1-PRIMER of G2-Bond to remove the solvent & residues of water.
  • 1-PRIMER should be kept out of light as it contains photoinitiators.
  • When doing immediate dentine sealing with G-Premio BOND, it is recommended to add a thin layer of G-ænial™ Universal Injectable or a flowable composite on top.

Use of a New Universal Flowable Composite
What are the most important properties of a flowable composite used for the flowable injection technique? Personal experience shows that balanced optical properties are essential, with an appropriate translucency, blend-in ability and surface gloss leading the way. However, the mechanical properties are also important, not least because the restorative material will be in direct contact with the antagonist teeth. And finally, handling properties are essential: The right level of flowability is needed for proper injection, while a void-free application is required for an intact, stainresistant surface.

Irradiance vs. Power: Curing Light Performance

Irradiance vs. Power: Curing Light Performance

As curing light technology improves, dentists are consistently sold on irradiance (mw per cm2) as being the defining factor in beam effectiveness. While there is no doubt irradiance adds value, it does not tell the full story of how well a light will cure various materials. Irradiance tests typically only show the irradiance of a very small portion of the light. Measuring the power distributed over the entire beam tells a more comprehensive story of its curing capabilities.
