• Curing Time: 10-20 seconds depending on light source
• Storage: Refrigerate for prolonged periods; otherwise, store at room temperature

• 1 x 5ml bottle

Cavity Preparation:

• Prepare the tooth using standard techniques.
• Use a rubber dam for protection.
• Dry the prepared tooth surfaces by gently blowing with an air syringe.
• For direct pulp capping, use calcium hydroxide.

Application:

• Shake the G-BOND bottle thoroughly before dispensing.
• Dispense a few drops into a clean dispensing dish.
• Replace the bottle cap immediately after use.
• Apply G-BOND to the prepared enamel and dentin surfaces immediately using the Disposable Applicator II.
• Leave undisturbed for 5-10 seconds after the end of the application.
• Dry thoroughly for 5 seconds with oil-free air under maximum air pressure. Use vacuum suction to prevent adhesive splatter.

Additional Notes:

• When removing from the refrigerator after long-term storage, let the G-BOND bottle stand at room temperature for several minutes before use.
• Non-cut enamel should be treated with a 35-40% phosphoric acid gel, rinsed with water, and gently dried before using G-BOND.
• Apply G-BOND immediately, as the material contains a volatile solvent.
• Remove excess material on the tooth surfaces (other than those to be bonded) using a sponge or cotton pellet, as residue material is hard to remove after light curing.
• If the applied material is contaminated with water, blood, or saliva before light curing, wash and dry the tooth and repeat the application procedure.

Light Curing:

• Light cure using a visible light curing unit.
• Halogen/LED (700 mW/cm²): 20 seconds or 10 seconds if the light guide tip is more than 10mm away from the surface.
• High-power LED (more than 1200 mW/cm²): 10 seconds or 5 seconds if the light guide tip is more than 10mm away.
• Use a protective light shield or similar protective eyewear during light curing.

Placement of Composites:

• After light curing the adhesive, follow the manufacturer's instructions to place, contour, and light cure the chosen composite resin material.

Finish and Polishing:

• Adjust the restoration and polish using standard techniques.

Question: Is it safe for patients with allergies?

Answer: G-BOND should be avoided in patients with known allergies to specific components, including methacrylate monomer, methacrylate polymer, or acetone.

Question: Can G-BOND be used with chemically cured resin?
Answer: No, G-BOND should not be used in combination with chemically cured composite resin.

Question: What are the contraindications for G-BOND?
Answer: Contraindications include direct pulp capping and allergies to methacrylate monomer, methacrylate polymer, or acetone.

Question: Who should use G-BOND?
Answer: G-BOND is designed for use by dental professionals for precise bonding applications in accordance with recommended indications.

Question: What is G-BOND used for?
Answer: G-BOND is used for bonding light-cured composites, compomers, and dual-cured luting and core build-up composites to tooth structures in dental procedures.

Question: What are the key benefits of using GC G-Bond Refill?
Answer: Using GC G-Bond Refill offers several advantages for dental practitioners. It provides exceptional bond strength, ensuring the longevity of restorations. Additionally, it minimizes post-operative sensitivity and marginal leakage. This adhesive also has a low film thickness, allowing for precise placement and reducing the risk of occlusal interference. Overall, GC G-Bond Refill is a reliable choice for achieving high-quality dental restorations

Question: How is GC G-Bond Refill used in dental procedures?
Answer: GC G-Bond Refill is applied in a simple and straightforward process. First, the tooth surface is prepared and cleaned. Then, the adhesive is applied evenly to the surface, followed by light curing. This creates a strong and durable bond between the dental material and the tooth structure. It can be used for a wide range of applications, including direct and indirect restorations.

Question: What is GC G-Bond Refill?
Answer: GC G-Bond Refill is a highly reliable and versatile dental adhesive system designed to bond various dental materials. It is manufactured by GC Corporation, a renowned name in dental products. This adhesive is specially formulated to provide excellent adhesion to enamel, dentin, metal, and ceramics, making it an essential tool for dental professionals.
