Poly-F Plus is a versatile dental cement that serves multiple purposes in restorative dentistry. It is a conventional zinc polycarboxylate cement presented as a powder, containing all the necessary reactive components. When mixed with demineralized water, it forms a reliable cement with excellent properties.
This dental cement is specifically designed for use in the cementations of crowns, bridges, inlays, and orthodontic bands. It provides a strong and durable bond between the prosthetic restorations and the natural teeth. Additionally, Poly-F Plus can be used as a cavity lining under all restorative materials, offering protection and insulation to the dental pulp. It is also suitable for temporary fillings and fillings in deciduous (baby) teeth. Its versatility extends to being a restorative base, providing a stable foundation for further restorative procedures. While using Poly-F Plus, certain precautions and safety measures should be observed. The material contains polyacrylic acid, which may cause skin, eye, and oral mucosa irritation. Therefore, it is important to avoid direct contact with these areas. Protective measures, such as glasses and rubber dam, should be used during application. Any use of the product should strictly follow the provided instructions to ensure optimal outcomes and patient safety.
