ionglass™ technology
Self-curing glass ionomer luting cement
Riva Luting utilises SDI’s proprietary ionglass™ filler developed by our glass technologists. ionglass™ is a radiopaque, high ion releasing, reactive glass used in SDI’s range of dental cements. Riva Luting releases substantially higher fluoride to assist with remineralisation of the natural dentition.

Riva Luting Advantages
High flexural strength
High flexural strength enhances longevity of a glass ionomer luting cement by withstanding mastication forces. Riva Luting’s high flexural strength increases its durability in the oral environment and long term ability to retain indirect restorations.
High fluoride release
Riva Luting’s free movement of fluoride provides benefits to the tooth. Fluoride plays several significant roles in any caries prevention programme, including the formation of fluorapatite, which is more acid resistant than hydroxyapatite. Fluorapatite is very important for tooth remineralisation.
Low solubility & low film thickness
Riva Luting has low solubility in the oral environment. This increases the material’s ability to resist disintegration and wear caused by oral acidity. Riva Luting quickly flows into the preparation. A low film thickness allows the seating of tight fitting indirect restorations.
