GC Fuji PLUS is a resin-reinforced glass ionomer cement. It has a simple placement technique that produces significantly higher bond strengths than conventional glass ionomer types of cement. The cement releases fluoride, and has excellent dimensional stability, with a low thermal expansion coefficient and high biocompatibility to the tooth and soft tissues.
GC Fuji PLUS is ideal for indirect restorations, such as porcelain, zirconia, etc. It can also be used with composite materials such as GRADIA and other resin-based materials.
The conditioner better prepares the bonding surface, which greatly increases the bonding strength and reduces the chance of hypersensitivity of the pulp. However, the use of the conditioner is optional and not required.
