WHAT IS BEING
TESTED?
After 2 years and about 150 restorations it was concluded that EQUIA may be used
as a permanent restoration material for any size of Class I and in smaller Class II cavities.

DESIGN
WHAT IS BEING
TESTED?
At 48 months, 304 restorations were evaluated in 202 patients (82 Class I, 150 Class II, 72 Class V).
Overall general success rate reported was of 91,45%, and a general integrity rate (only Criteria =0) of 79,61%.
These results suggest that the restorative system used in this trial can be a reliable choice for
permanent dental restorations, even in load bearing tooth surfaces of molars and premolars.

DESIGN
Five-year randomised clinical trial on 140 (80 Cl1 and 60 Cl2) lesions in 59 patients
WHAT IS BEING
TESTED?
After 60 months 126 (76 Cl1 and 50 Cl2) restorations were evaluated in 52 patients.
None of the restorations showed trends to downgrade in anatomical form, secondary caries,
surface texture, postoperative sensitivity and color match (p>0.05).
Conclusion: The use of both materials for the restoration of posterior teeth exhibited a similar
and clinically successful performance after 60 months.

DESIGN
WHAT IS BEING
TESTED?
The respective clinical performances of a conventional GIC (GC Fuji IX GP Extra, GC),
a resin-coated GIC (GC Fuji IX GP Extra + G-Coat Plus, GC) and a resin composite
(Solare, GC) as a comparison material.
This study shows that although both GC Fuji IX GP Extra and GC Fuji IX GP Extra with G-Coat Plus
(EQUIA restorative system) showed acceptable clinical performance in occlusal cavities in children,
the application of G-Coat Plus gave some protection against wear.
Clinical Relevance: The application of G-Coat Plus to GC Fuji IX GP Extra glass-ionomer cement
may be beneficial in reducing wear in occlusal cavities.

DESIGN
WHAT IS BEING
TESTED?
Some large Class II restorations of both groups were broken from their marginal ridges leading to replacement.
The colour match of GC Fuji IX GP Extra was better than Riva SC (p0.05).
Clinical Relevance: Encapsulated GICs and light-cured nano-filled coating combinations were found to be
suitable permanent restorative options for Class I and small to medium Class II restorations.
Note: EQUIA Restorative Concept was launched in March 2007 bearing the components GC Fuji IX GP EXTRA + G-Coat PLUS. Since
March 2011, it has been rebranded as a New Restorative System bearing the components EQUIA Fil and EQUIA Coat. All the products
GC Fuji IX GP EXTRA, G-Coat PLUS and the EQUIA Restorative System co-exist in the market. These clinical papers are a selection of
the available evidence on EQUIA. More supporting studies are available and can be delivered upon request.
