angelus interlig (fiber splint) (4832)

The solution to immediate prostheses and splitting in Periodontics
Product description
Braided glass fiber impregnated with light-cured composite resin

Indication

• Splinting in periodontics.
  
• Splinting of traumatized teeth.
  
• Fabrication of adhesive direct temporary prostheses.
  
• Reinforcement of large restorations.
• Pre-impregnated (ready to use): Saves time and material
• Glass fiber: High flexural strength
• Easy to cut: Special scissors are not required
• Malleable fiber: Easy to adapt
• Packed in sachets: Easy handling; protects fibers from light and heat

Direction to Use

• TECHNIQUE FOR USE
  
• PERIODONTAL SPLINT
  
• Pre-op;
  
• Isolate with rubber dam (ideally) and place wedges interproximally to help controlling the flow of resin in these areas;
  
• With a pencil, delineate the area for cutting a groove;
  L Cutting a groove is an optional procedure which depends on the clinical situation.
  
• Make a 0.8 mm deep x 2.0 mm wide groove;
  Etch with 37% phosphoric acid for 30 seconds; wash and dry (areas of exposed dentin should not be desiccated);
  
• Apply the adhesive FUSION-DURALINK® system (same procedures used for direct composite resin restorations);
  
• Light-cure all segments of the splint site for 20 seconds each;
  
• Fill half of the groove with a hybrid or microhybrid composite resin (microfil resins should not be used in splinting);
  
• Cut a section of INTERLIG® slightly shorter than the length of the groove; position INTERLIG® in the groove and press it
  towards the composite resin;
  
• Gently pressing, light-cure each segment of the splint for 20 seconds; curing of non-pressed areas should be avoided
  by covering them with an aluminum foil;
  
• Apply a second layer of composite resin to cover the groove totally; the resin must also be placed slightly beyond the
  limits of the groove;
  
• Light-cure each segment for 40 seconds;
  
• Remove the excess of resin, check the occlusion, and adjust it if necessary; proceed with finishing and polishing;
  
• Apply a final layer of fluid resin (adhesive) to fill any irregularity or superficial bubbles and voids; light-cure all segments
  for 20 seconds each;
  
• Final result
  
• Interlig must be totally covered by the restorative resin because it
  absorbs water. In case of exposition to humidity, properties will be
  altered.
  Interlig is impregnated with light-cured resin and should be protected
  from light.
  
  
• Glass fibers (weight) - 60 ± 5%.
  
• Impregnated resin (weight) 40 ± 5%: Bis-GMA, diurethane, barium glass,
  
• silicon dioxide, catalysts.
