Product Description
Build a high-strength core faster with SuperCure, light activated composite core buildup material. Inject direct from the SuperCure syringe tip into the tooth. Light activate to a dentin-like hardness for immediate prep. Easier, faster, better.
SuperCure is available in two high performance formulations.
Original SuperCure – with barium borosilicate glass filler cuts like dentin.
SuperCure-Q – is reinforced with quartz glass filler to cut harder than dentin.
Both formulations are packaged in Centrix exclusive direct-to-the-tooth unit-dose tips (.25gm or .50gm) with enough material to meet the needs of most buildups.
Just place a tip of SuperCure light-activated core buildup material in your Centrix syringe and inject. There’s no mixing, no wasteful automix nozzles and no cross-contamination. SuperCure stacks beautifully, without slump, so matrices or coreforms are not required.
