ACTIVA Base-Liner

PRODUCT CURRENTLY UNAVAILABLE

ACTIVA BioActive products are the first dental resins that incorporate:

- a bioactive ionic resin matrix

- a shock-absorbing rubbery resin component

- a reactive glass ionomer filler that mimics the physical and chemical properties of natural teeth. These bioactive materials actively participate in ion exchange cycles that regulate the natural chemistry of teeth and saliva and contribute to the maintenance of dental structure and oral health.

ACTIVA has the resistance, aesthetics and physical properties of composite materials and releases more fluoride than glass ionomers, thus combining the best properties of both materials without compromise.

ACTIVA chemically bonds to dental tissues and seals against bacterial micro-leakage and due to the continuous release and reloading with significant amounts of calcium, phosphate and fluoride ions, confers long-term benefits to patients.

ACTIVA bioactive materials are tougher and more resistant to breakage than most composite materials: 2-3 times that of ordinary composites and 5-10 times that of glass ionomers. Unlike traditional materials that are hydrophobic, water repellent and designed to be passive, ACTIVA is an active, moisture tolerant material that reacts to changes in the oral environment.

ACTIVA BioActive Restorative after 1 year

ACTIVA reacts to pH changes in the mouth to help fortify and replenish the ionic properties of saliva, teeth and the material itself. For this reason, ACTIVA is considered a "smart" material.

ACTIVA contains water, yet has an extremely low solubility. The ionic resin matrix facilitates the diffusion of calcium, phosphate and fluoride ions, while maintaining the excellent physical properties associated with resins and composites.

ACTIVA products do not contain Bisphenol A, Bis-GMA or other BPA.

ACTIVA products are paste-paste materials, in self-mixing syringe, with polymerisation by three mechanisms: light-curing, chemical self-curing, self-curing by reaction characteristic of glass ionomers.

ACTIVA Base-Liber has all the advantages of a glasionomer, all encapsulated in a strong and resilient resin matrix that will not crumble or chip.
