Voco Ionofil Plus Powder/Liquid

Direction to Use

• Place powder and liquid on a glass plate or a suitable mixing pad and work the powder into the liquid a little at a time to begin with, then in larger quantities.
• Use 1 drop of liquid for 1 level measuring scoop of powder (mixing ratio: 4.7 – 5.6 g of powder : 1 g of liquid).
• When dispensing the liquid, hold the dropper bottle absolutely vertically.
• A strong plastic spatula should be used for mixing.
• The mixing time is 30 – 40 s (it should not exceed 1 min).
• The working time after mixing is approximately 2 – 3 min (the temperature should be 15 °C – 23 °C).
• After insertion of the material into the cavity, the setting time is approximately 2.5 min.
• During the filling procedure make sure that the working area is kept dry.
• Class V cavities should be at least 1 mm deep.
• Avoid feather-shaped margins.
• In case of doubt prepare in a conventional way.
• During the setting phase, especially immediately after application, glass ionomer cements are sensitive to humidity (breath, saliva) and also to drying-out. Therefore, if possible, apply a protective varnish immediately.
• After setting of Ionofil Plus, but no sooner than 5 – 6 min after application (depending on mixing temperature and mixing ratio) excess material may be removed with a sharp instrument and contouring can be carried out (flexible disks).
• Then cover again with varnish.
• The best results for final polishing can be obtained about 24 h after the filling has been inserted.
