Transitional restorations and cores – GC EUROPE Fuji VIII GP User Manual

Glass ionomers are an ideal transitional restorative
material when you need to treat fractured cusps im-
mediately in emergencies. Once you’ve performed
the transitional restoration, your patient can schedu-
le a later appointment for a prosthetic restoration. In
treating fractures, be sure to create a first-rate dentine
ferrule to cut down the glass ionomer restoration and
use it to form part of the core for a crown.
