Vladmiva Argecem: A Superior Glass Ionomer Cement for Pediatric and Restorative Dentistry

Argecem, manufactured by Vladmiva, is a high-performance, two-component glass ionomer cement incorporating silver for enhanced properties. This versatile material offers dentists a reliable solution for a wide range of applications in both pediatric and general dentistry.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Silver-Containing: The incorporation of fine silver particles significantly increases the cement’s hardness, wear resistance, and overall strength. This also provides inherent radiopacity for easy identification on radiographs.
• Radiopaque: Argecem’s radiopacity simplifies diagnosis and monitoring of restorations.
• Fluoride and Silver Ion Release: The gradual release of fluoride and silver ions actively inhibits the development of secondary caries, promoting long-term oral health.
• Chemical Adhesion: Argecem exhibits strong chemical adhesion to both dentin and enamel, ensuring a secure and lasting bond.
• Low Solubility: Its low solubility contributes to its exceptional durability and longevity.
• Versatile Applications: Argecem is suitable for various procedures, including:
  • Temporary tooth fillings (pediatric dentistry)
  • Core build-ups for crowns
  • Class I cavity restorations in permanent teeth
  • Tunnel preparations
  • Base/liner under composite or other restorative materials
  • Fissure sealing
  • Sealing perforations in furcations
• Compliant with ISO 9917-91: Argecem meets the stringent quality standards defined by ISO 9917-91.

Packaging:
