Put 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:4.7-5.6g of powder: 1g of liquid). When dispensing the liquid, hold the dropper bottle vertically! By pressing the flexible plastic pipette dispense drop by drop.
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 2-3min (the temperature should be 15-23 C).
During the Working procedure make sure that the working area is kept dry.
Class V cavities should be at least 1 mm deep.
Avoid application, glass ionomer cement is sensitive to humidity (breath, saliva) respectively drying out. Therefore, if possible, apply immediately with a protective varnish (see instructions for use).
After setting of GI Core build-up (Glass Ionomer Filling Cement), but not before 5-6 min after application (depending on mixing temperature and mixing ratio), the excess 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 hours after the filling has been inserted.
