Glass Hybrid Technology Finally Hits Dentistry
EQUIA Forte Fil is a fast setting, aesthetic restorative with an increase in physical properties, achieved through the introduction of novel Glass Hybrid technology. A new, ultrafine, and highly reactive glass is dispersed within the glass hybrid fillers to accelerate and enhance matrix formation after mixing. This innovative glass hybrid technology increases the ion availability and builds a much stronger matrix structure with greater physical properties, wear resistance and fluoride release.

The EQUIA Forte™ system consists of EQUIA Forte™ Fil and EQUIA Forte™ Coat
EQUIA Forte™ is a glass hybrid bulkfill, rapid restorative system, that is easy to use and very quick to place. EQUIA Forte™ builds on the remarkable clinical trials performance of the original EQUIA system and presents as a viable alternative to amalgam for the restoration of posterior teeth.
EQUIA Forte™ Fil is a high strength glass hybridrestorative. It has similar handling, setting andaesthetics as Fuji IX GP EXTRA, but with enhancedphysical properties for superior wear resistance,fracture toughness and durability.
EQUIA Forte™ Coat is a clear, highly wear resistant, self-adhesive light-cured resin coating which laminates EQUIA Forte™ Fil to toughen, polish and protect.

EQUIA Forte™ Fil is a fast setting,
aesthetic glass hybrid restorative
which features a significant increase
in fracture toughness (flexural
energy) and flexural strength.
EQUIA Forte™ Fil features a significant increase in flexural energy (fracture toughness), through
the introduction of novel HYBRID glass technology.
Higher fracture toughness
This patented HYBRID glass technology increases the availability of metal ions to build a much stronger matrix structure with greater flexural strength.

a smooth laminated surface with
remarkable strength and impressive
wear resistance. EQUIA Forte™ Coat
is more flowable than G-COAT PLUS,
resulting in a smoother surface.
EQUIA Forte™ Coat is designed for
optimum wetting, strong adhesion,
and has excellent colour stability
and stain resistance.

weight polyacrylic acid
Nano-filler
Conventional multifunctional monomer
High reactive multifunctional monomer
1. Why is EQUIA Forte™ Fil stronger than Fuji IX GP EXTRA?
EQUIA Forte™ Fil is stronger because the matrix surrounding the glass fillers is stronger. This is achieved through the introduction of novel HYBRID glass technology.
Aside from the conventional glass particles, an innovative ultrafine, highly reactive glass is dispersed into EQUIA Forte™ Fil.
Combined with a higher molecular weight polyacrylic acid, this new HYBRID glass formulation increases ion availability, enhancing matrix formation and builds a much stronger matrix structure.
This new monomer also improves handling and creates a smoother surface finish.
2. Why is EQUIA Forte™ Coat tougher than G-COAT PLUS?
EQUIA Forte™ Coat features new cross-linking monomer chemistry, with more efficient polymerisation characteristics to produce a tougher resin matrix , that is further reinforced by single dispersion nano-fillers.
3. How aesthetic is EQUIA Forte™?
EQUIA Forte™ Fil has a great shade-matching ability and EQUIA Forte™ Coat forms a high lustre, translucent coating, saving you polishing time. The synergy of these two materials in EQUIA Forte™, means you will achieve excellent aesthetics in minimal time.
