Ionolux Powder & Liquid A1 – Light-Cured Resin-Modified Glass Ionomer (RMGIC) by VOCO

Ionolux is a light-cured, resin-modified glass ionomer restorative system by VOCO, combining the proven benefits of glass ionomer chemistry – fluoride release and chemical adhesion – with the handling convenience and aesthetic quality of light-cured composites. Available in shade A1 for natural, aesthetic restorations in anterior and posterior teeth.

The powder/liquid format allows flexible mixing ratios for customised consistency, making it suitable for a wide range of clinical applications from restorations to liners and bases.

Key Features

• Light-cured resin-modified glass ionomer – combines GIC adhesion with composite handling

• Shade A1 – excellent aesthetics for anterior and posterior restorations
• Chemical adhesion to enamel and dentine – no separate bonding agent required
• Extended working time with on-demand light-cure setting
• Low shrinkage stress compared to conventional composites
• Biocompatible and pulp-friendly formulation
• Powder/liquid system for flexible, adjustable consistency
