ChemFil Superior is a high-quality glass ionomer restorative material designed for strong adhesion, durability, and aesthetic restorations. Comprising a blend of aluminosilicate glass and polyacrylic acid, it forms a reliable bond with enamel and dentin when mixed with distilled water. This results in well-sealed, long-lasting restorations with fluoride release for enhanced protection.
Indications:
- Class V restorations (cervical cavities and lesions)
- Class I and II restorations in primary teeth
- Class III restorations in anterior teeth
- Temporary and semi-permanent fillings
- Fissure fillings for minimal Class I cavities
Contraindications:
- Not suitable for direct or indirect pulp capping
- Not recommended for permanent restorations in high-stress occlusal areas
Key Benefits:
- Strong dentin adhesion – Forms a durable, long-term bond to hydroxyapatite, even in moist conditions.
- Minimal cavity preparation – Allows for a more conservative approach to tooth structure preservation.
- Sustained fluoride release – Provides added protection against caries.
- Aesthetic color stability – Matches natural enamel and remains unaffected by oral fluids over time.
- Fast setting with ‘snappy’ consistency – Maintains workability and rapidly sets into a rock-hard restoration.
- Easy mixing and handling – Smooth consistency with high powder loading for improved strength and aesthetics.
