Giomers are the latest category of hybrid restorative materials. These fluoride releasing light-cured restoratives are touted as the true hybridization of glass ionomers and composites as they have the fluoride release and recharge of glass ionomers and the aesthetics, handling and physical properties of composite resins.

THE GIOMER CONCEPT
The Giomer concept is based on the PRG technology in which a stable phase of Pre-Reacted Glass ionomer cement is used as fillers.

The GIOMER group of restorative materials and adhesive systems contain the unique PRG filler created using either the Surface Pre-Reacted Type of glass-ionomer (S-PRG) or Fully Pre-Reacted Type of glass-ionomer (F-PRG) technology.

Among the GIOMER products, "BEAUTIFIL", anaesthetic direct restorative material for anterior and posterior teethand "FL-BOND", a 2-step bonding system, consisting of self etching Primer and fluoride releasing bonding agent have been clinically provenand researched extensively worldwide. Their excellent long-termclinical performance has made GIOMER to be recognized as a unique groupof direct aesthetic restorative materials.
