Hydrophilicity mean no post-op sensitivity and outstanding patient comfort.
G-Cem™ combines the proven technologies of 7th-generation resin adhesives with the exceptional properties of hydrophilic, biocompatible resin-modified glass ionomer cements. It’s the first resin cement to contain water and functional monomers (4-MET and Phosphoric ester) for self-adhesive properties, rather than polyalkenoate acid. As a result, G-Cem's™ hydrophilicity causes effective penetration into the dentinal tubules (as shown in the SEM below). After penetration, G-Cem™ sets tightly and becomes hydrophobic.
The result: unlike most other resin cements, G-Cem™ forms a strong chemical bond, sealing and protecting the tooth from external stimuli and eliminating the risk of post-op sensitivity—whether the tooth prep is moist or dry.
