When should I use Vitrebond?
is a resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) liner/base material, its composition and curing mechanism extensively described in the literature. It is recommend for use as a liner or base under composite, amalgam, metal and ceramic restorations. Vitrebond Liner/Base is not indicated for direct pulp capping.
Is Vitrebond light cure?

What is Vitrebond Plus used for?
Use Vitrebond Plus for the initial cervical portion of Class V restorations. It adheres to dentin without phosphoric acid etching while providing fluoride release for future caries control and a dentin shade for esthetics.
How do you use Vitrebond?
Just click, mix and use – it’s that easy!
- Dispense desired amount of liner/base onto.
- mixing pad. One to two clicks of material.
- are sufficient.
- Use spatula to mix liner material.
- Apply Vitrebond™ Plus liner / base to dentin.
- Light-cure for 20 seconds.

How does Dycal work?
Our results evidence that pulp capping with Dycal, as well as with Hydrogel, stimulates the formation of reactionary dentin at the periphery of the pulp chamber. Dycal contributes to the partial closure of the pulp exposure, producing a defective reparative dentinal bridge.
Do you etch before using Vitrebond?
Vitrebond Plus liner/base can be used with any type of adhesive (light or self cured; separate etch or self-etch, i.e. – 4th, 5th or 6th generation adhesives) on dentin or enamel.
Is Vitrebond a RMGI?
Vitrebond™ is a light-cured, resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI) liner/base material. It is recommended for use as a liner or base under composite, amalgam, metal and ceramic restorations. It is not indicated for direct pulp capping.
What material Cannot be used under a composite filling?
… Traditional base materials, such as zinc oxide-eugenol cements, have been contraindicated for composite restorations due to inhibition of resin polymerization by the phenolic hydrogen of eugenol.
Do you etch and bond RMGI?
You can safely etch set RMGI and enamel, giving the preferred etched pattern for enamel bonding with reduced dentinal sensitivity. In several studies, RMGI’s had better retention rates than composites placed with dentin bonding agents.
Do you need to etch before glass ionomer?
Pure glass ionomers require no etching. The tooth simply needs to be cleaned (with a mild acid).
Is glass ionomer moisture sensitivity?
Resin-modified glass-ionomer cements are less sensitive to moisture than is the conventional glass-ionomer cement control. Drier environments produced stronger resin-modified glass-ionomer specimens.
Is TheraCal MTA?
TheraCal LC has been referred to as a light-curable MTA-cement [22]. This description has caused some confusion in the literature since there is no light-initiated setting of the Portland cement.
What is MTA in dentistry?
Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), composed mainly of tricalcic silicate, tricalcic alluminate, bismuth oxide, is a particular endodontic cement. It is made of hydrophilic fine particles that harden in the presence of dampness or blood.
Is Biodentine MTA?
Background: Biodentine is comparatively a new biomaterial claimed to have properties comparable to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Biodentine and MTA are effectively used for direct pulp capping (DPC), and they are capable of regenerating relatively damaged pulp and formation of hard dentine bridge.
Does TheraCal have fluoride?
BISCO is proud to introduce CORE- FLO™ DC Lite, a dual-cured, radiopaque, fluoride-containing core material.
What is the active ingredient in the TheraCal LC and TheraCal PT materials?
Calcium Silicates (MTA), the active ingredients of Theracal LC, have many years of research showing its effectiveness. Therefore, TheraCal LC is a natural (or perfect) replacement to calcium hydroxide, glass ionomers, RMGI and IRM/ZOE, due to its interactive properties.
How do you use PT TheraCal?
Achieve hemostasis, place TheraCal PT, light-cure for 10 seconds and place desired adhesive, base, and/or restoration following manufacturer’s directions for restoring tooth.
Is TheraCal calcium hydroxide?
Similar to MTA material, TheraCal LC promotes healing due to the alkaline pH, and the calcium release assists in the formation of dentin bridge. Calcium hydroxide is the primary chemical contained in many dentin liners and pulp capping agents.
What is calcium hydroxide dental?
Calcium Hydroxide is used a cavity liner, cement base, root canal filling material, direct and indirect pulp capping material in restorative dentistry. This material also helps in the formation of reparative dentine.
Do you light cure TheraCal?
TheraCal LC is a light-cured material. Proceed immediately once material has been dispensed.
