Forms a strong chemical bond with the tooth surface, offering superior adhesion
Releases fluoride and is safe for use in the mouth
Has a very thin film layer of only 12 microns
Produces minimal smell and causes little to no sensitivity after the procedure
Offers better resistance to breaking and dissolving, making it long-lasting inside the mouth
Seals the margins well, helping to stop any leakage
Its high translucency makes it ideal for aesthetic dental work
Allows for a longer handling time and fully sets in about 4 minutes
Changes from light pink to clear when set, making it easy to see and apply accurately
Simple to use and excess material can be removed with ease
Shofu Hy-Bond Resiglass is a resin-modified glass ionomer (RMGI) cement that is radiopaque and built for strong, long-lasting adhesion. It’s well-suited for securing various types of restorations, including metal-ceramic, full metal, and metal-free crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and both metal and ceramic orthodontic brackets. Its advanced formula provides high bond strength, low solubility, and tight sealing at the margins, which contributes to the durability of the restoration. The radiopacity helps in clearly identifying the cement in X-rays after treatment, and the slow release of fluoride supports enamel repair and protects against future decay. With a smooth texture and user-friendly handling, it ensures accurate and efficient placement.
Uses / Indications:
Luting (cementing) metal-based inlays, crowns, and bridges
Luting resin-based inlays, crowns, and bridges
Luting ceramic (porcelain) inlays, crowns, and bridges
Cementing orthodontic brackets and bands (metal or ceramic)

Step 1 – Clear Temporary Material:
Carefully take out any temporary filling from the cavity. Rinse the area well with water and dry it completely.
Step 2 – Apply Pulp Protection (Pulp Capping): If the cavity is quite deep and close to the pulp, apply calcium hydroxide to protect it before proceeding.
Step 3 – Clean the Area for Restoration: Make sure the surface where the cement will be applied is clean and free of debris.
Step 4 – Measure Powder and Liquid:
Use the standard mixing ratio: 1.6 grams of powder to 1 gram of liquid.
Step 5 – Mix the Cement: Combine the powder and liquid on a mixing pad using a plastic spatula for about 20 seconds. The cement remains workable for around 3 minutes and 30 seconds and fully sets in 7 minutes.
Step 6 – Remove Excess Cement: Once the excess cement becomes rubbery (after about 2 minutes 30 seconds to 3 minutes 30 seconds), gently remove it with an appropriate dental instrument.
