SHOFU Zirconomer Improved

High strength and durability like Silver amalgam with protective benefits of glassionomer
Improved edge strength and marginal adaptation
High translucency, flexural modulus and compressive strength
Improved mixing and handling characteristics
Excellent resistance to abrasion and erosion
Remarkable radiopacity
Sustained high fluoride release for anti-cariogenic benefits especially in cases with high caries risk
Exceptional for minimally invasive procedures as it chemically bonds to enamel and dentin while displaying tooth-like co-efficient of thermal expansion, which results in low interfacial stresses and minimizes potential for failure
Packable and condensable like amalgam without the hazard of mercury or the risk of corrosion, expansion and thermal conductivity
For class i & ii, structural base in sandwich restorations, core build-up, root surfaces where overdentures rest, in both pediatric and geriatic cases, as long-term temporary for fractured cusps & fractures amalgam restoratios as well as in ART techniques.
