Liquid Strip: Cure Complete
Liquid Strip is a glycerin-based gel produced by Ivoclar Vivadent for use in dental procedures. It comes in a 2.5g syringe with 5 application tips. The product is designed to prevent the formation of an oxygen-inhibited layer during the light-curing of composite materials.
Clinical Application in Dentistry:
Liquid Strip is primarily used in restorative and cosmetic dentistry. It is applied to composite resin restorations before light-curing to ensure complete polymerization of the surface layer, resulting in a harder, more durable restoration with improved polish and finish.
Features:
- Prevents oxygen inhibition during light-curing
- Improves surface hardness of composites
- Enhances polish and finish of restorations
- Easy application with syringe and tips
- Compatible with various composite materials
Operating Manual Sequences:
- Apply composite material to the tooth
- Shape and contour the restoration
- Apply a thin layer of Liquid Strip over the entire surface
- Light-cure according to the composite manufacturer’s instructions
- Rinse off Liquid Strip with water
- Finish and polish the restoration as usual
