    • Chemical adhesion to tooth structure allows minimal cavity preparation
    • No etching, no bonding
    • Strontium-based glass ionomer restorative
      - For good radiopacity and snapset characteristics
      - Strontium will mimic calcium in the formation of strontium hydroxyapatite and strontium fluoroapatite to affect internal remineralization within the tooth structure
      - Research has shown that a strontium-based glass ionomer placed in calcium-containing environment (saliva) will result in calcium ion diffusing into the glass ionomer surface achieving a surface strengthening effect
