GC Fuji IX

GC Fuji IX is a high-viscosity, conventional glass ionomer restorative material designed for posterior restorations. It is characterized by its chemical adhesion to tooth structure (enamel and dentin) through an acid-base reaction with hydroxyapatite, eliminating the need for separate etching or bonding agents. The material is highly biocompatible and provides long-term fluoride release, which contributes to its anti-cariogenic properties and helps prevent secondary caries. In clinical practice, it is used for Class I and II restorations, core build-ups, and as a base or liner. In the context of studies conducted by institutions like the Liaquat University of Medical & Health Sciences, it is frequently evaluated for its performance in reducing postoperative sensitivity compared to resin-based composite materials.
