Class 2 Dental Filling with GC Equia Forte HT - All Steps EXPLAINED
About this video
This video provides a detailed, step-by-step demonstration of performing a Class 2 dental filling using GC Equia Forte HT glass ionomer cement (GIC). It covers cavity preparation, rubber dam placement, matrix system setup, conditioning, material application, finishing, and coating for enhanced durability, ideal for non-stress-bearing restorations.
Key Materials
- GC Equia Forte HT capsules, cavity conditioner (e.g., GC or DMG), Aqua Forte Coat for strengthening.
- Rubber dam, matrix bands, wedges, clamps, polishing tools, curing lamp.
The dentist starts with a prepared cavity on a model tooth, secures the rubber dam and matrix for proper contouring, conditions and rinses the dentin (keeping it moist), mixes and applies the GIC evenly, allows setting, finishes with Arkansas stone or discs, and applies/cures the protective coat.
Every step is explained clearly, including tips like burnishing the contact point and using pulp protection near vital areas; questions are encouraged in comments.
