Bioactivity and ion exchange
ACTIVA Kids stimulates the formation of apatite and the natural remineralization process through the release and recharge of calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions. The material reacts to changes in oral pH and participates in ion exchange with saliva and the tooth structure, a process essential for maintaining dental health.
Resin matrix and bioactive fillers
The formulation combines an ionic resin matrix, a resin component that absorbs shocks, and bioactive fillers that mimic the physical and chemical properties of natural teeth. The ACTIVA line presentation describes it as the first bioactive restoration material with this combination, which combines the advantages of glass ionomers with the aesthetics, strength, and durability of composites.
Three components of the patented bioactive chemistry
- Patented bioactive ionic resin.
- Patented elastic resin.
- Bioactive glass ionomer.
This combination offers aesthetics, bioactivity, toughness, resilience, durability, and marginal integrity.
