3M Ketac Nano Light-Curing Glass Ionomer, Kit & Standard
A nanotechnology paste/paste, resin-modified glass ionomer restorative that creates natural-looking, glossy restorations with improved strength and wear resistance.
3M Ketac Nano Light-Curing Glass Ionomer Restorative is a resin-modified glass ionomer material used by dentists for direct restorative procedures, formulated using the manufacturer's proprietary nanotechnology. The paste/paste system lets the clinician create restorations with a natural-looking gloss straight after placement and finishing, supporting a more esthetic result than some traditional glass ionomer materials can achieve.
Beyond appearance, the nanotechnology used in this material is described as improving both strength and wear resistance compared with earlier glass ionomer formulations, aiming to give patients restorations that hold up better over time under normal biting forces. Being a glass ionomer, the material also offers the fluoride release properties associated with this class of restorative, supporting the health of the surrounding tooth structure.
This product is available as an introductory kit under model 3304, or in a standard pack format, giving practices a choice depending on whether they are new to the system or already stock it regularly. It suits general dental practices completing everyday restorative work.
