I have it—You want it! GC FujiCEM Evolve

Oct. 1, 2020
Dr. Howard Glazer reviews products he believes will benefit your practice.

Eighteen years ago, GC introduced GC FujiCEM and nine years later, GC FujiCEM 2 was launched. Now, allow me to introduce you to GC FujiCEM Evolve with its new syringe delivery system that allows for hand-mixing or auto-mixing with a new “push and click” tip. While this product is optimized for zirconia, it can be used with a variety of substrates. GC FujiCEM Evolve is the result of the evolution of a great cement into an even better cement. 

In the current struggle to minimize office visits, we need a cement that holds restorations, is easy to clean up, and has high radiopacity and a rechargeable fluoride release. This product features a new three-second tack cure (due to a new photo initiator) and is ideal for zirconia bridges and crowns. GC FujiCEM Evolve can also be used for cementing fiber posts, as well as metal or ceramic posts. Demonstrated bond strengths and durability are quite high, and it is particularly strong and stable when cementing zirconia. GC FujiCEM Evolve features excellent “wetability” because of its hydrophilic monomer chain, ensuring a long-lasting bond. Reliability and a history of success make GC FujiCEM Evolve the natural choice.
