A silver reinforced glass ionomer specifically developed and enhanced for core build ups.
This material proves excellent for constructing crown supporting cores where there is not enough natural tooth substance remaining. Being a glass ionomer it will chemically adhere to the remaining tooth structure and metal and the addition of a silver alloy gives great strength to support the crown.
