Bioactive glass hybrid
Riva Self Cure contains ionglass™ filler, made of a unique blend of different sizes of ultrafine highly reactive glass particles. This bioactive proprietary hybrid glass enables long term restorations, being outstanding in handling, strength and aesthetics. The ionglass™ filler contains fluoride and strontium ions which synergistically enhance tooth bioremineralisation. Superior biocompatibility ensures healthier teeth, the restoration will last longer and the patient will be more satisfied.
Riva Self Cure is biomimetic
Riva Self Cure replaces dentine, imitating some of its natural features. The ionglass™ technology for Riva Self Cure mimics dentine’s hydrophilic characteristic and coefficient of thermal expansion. To make the restoration time-efficient, no etching or adhesive is required. This dramatically reduces chair time for the dentist and the risk of sensitivity for the patient. A patient with a nice smile and no sensitivity has a better quality of life.
