GC EUROPE announces G-ænial Anterior & Posterior:an all-round restorative for effortless invisible restorations

A new range of anterior and posterior light-cured restoratives now available

Leuven, Belgium (February 2010): GC EUROPE, a leader in dental materials technology introduces G-ænial, an advanced material suitable for all restorative classes and highly-aesthetic single shade or multi-shade build-ups. G-ænial posterior and anterior restoratives have been developed over a period of time with GC’s extensive expertise and knowledge of dental materials together with input from clinicians who are loyal Gradia Direct users.

Outstanding features

Years of experience and industry know-how went into creating G-ænial to make it the perfect partner for a clinician who is only satisfied with the best restorations. Your aesthetic skills are matched by G-ænial’s superior characteristics which allow it to match every restoration with nature.

G-ænial is your material of choice when it comes to key differentiators such as:

  • Shade system
  • Manipulation
  • Viscosity
  • Polishability
  • Radiopacity
  • Aesthetics
  • Physical properties
  • Colour stability

Beautiful outside...and on the inside

The chameleon effect achievable with one shade of G-ænial is so good that the restoration becomes aesthetically invisible. This, along with the features listed above,is made possible by G-ænial’s unique internal composition. Thanks to diverse and structurally complex matrix, G-ænial mimics the reflectivity of a natural tooth. Scientifically, this means that due to different refractive indices, colour information is scattered inside the composite, creatingnatural reflectivity and therefore natural aesthetics.In summary: G-ænialis as beautiful on the inside as it is on the outside.

Technique and handling

G-ænial is one of the rare composite materials that can be really qualified as being user-friendly, not only because of the shade system, but because it is a unique composite that offers effortless manipulation. Consistency and working times are accommodated to all restorative classes.

G-ænial Anterior has the same consistency as Gradia Direct Anterior, a material which has been tested extensively over a period of 6 years and specifically lauded for its superior consistency, setting it apart from other restorative materials.

The working time is around 4minutes under ambient light to allow stress-free working when you need to create multi-layer restorations.

G-ænial Posteriorfeatures a viscosity that is specially adapted to posterior applications.In addition it iseasy to sculpt, thixotropic and adapts well to the cavity walls thanks to a more packable consistency.

Another characteristic of G-ænial that improves its handling is its increased radiopacity which allows for easy follow-up procedures. With High-Density Radiopaque (HDR) Technology the radiopacity of both G-ænial Anterior and Posterior is significantly increased without compromising aesthetics.

Advanced shading

The G-ænial shading concept offers flexibility to the clinician to create a restoration from aesthetically invisible single shade to aesthetic masterpieces in a multi-shade build-up. G-ænial Anterior offers 22 shades in three different opacities and G-ænial Posterior in 6 shades and 2 opacities. The standard shades, outside special shades and inside special shades all have a delicate balance between hue, chroma, value and translucency

Don’t take our word for it, try it yourself.
