Resin-Reinforced, Multipurpose Cement

GC Fuji PLUS is a resin-reinforced, glass ionomer luting cement designed for final cementation of metal, porcelain-fused-to-metal, metal-free crowns, bridges, inlays and onlays. It bonds chemically and mechanically to tooth structure and all types of core material. Its simple placement technique produces significantly higher bond strengths than conventional glass ionomer cements while maintaining the favorable characteristics of glass ionomers-fluoride release, low coefficient of thermal expansion, and biocompatibility to tooth structure and soft tissues. For indirect metal-free restoration that recommend a resin-reinforced / resin-modified glass ionomer for final cementation – cementable reinforced all ceramic crowns like PROCERA or cementable composite resin restoration like GRADIA.

The use of optional GC Fuji PLUS Conditioner prepares the bonding surface, which dramatically increases the bond strength and reduces the chance of pulpal sensitivity. A 20 second application of GC Fuji PLUS Conditioner removes smear layer with a mild citric acid etchant and seals dentinal tubules with its ferric chloride component.

When increased retention is required, the GC Fuji PLUS Conditioner option:
Increases the cement's bond strength to tooth structure
Improves the retention of short or tapered crowns
The premeasured capsules are easier and faster to use than ever
Outstanding bond strength to tooth structure
Long lasting restorations
Sustained, rechargeable fluoride release
Reduces risk of decay at tooth/casting interface
Fluoride release is recharged when the patient uses a fluoridated rinse or dentifrice
Available in a unique, encapsulated automix delivery system
New capsule design
Push-button activation; 10-second trituration
No hand mixing or clean-up is required
No activating appliance needed; consistent mixes every time
Extended working time
3'30" working time vs. 2'30" for GC Fuji PLUS
Facilitates cementation of long-span bridges, multiple abutment bridges and multiple unit restorations
