Latalloy

Features:

• Ternary alloy: offers phase stability resulting in outstanding corrosion resistance.

• Spherical particles: allow improved plasticity offering excellent marginal adaptation.

• Atomized particles: offer a microcrystalline structure resulting in high early strength which prevents early isthmus fractures.

Indications for use:

 Occlusion-bearing restorations in the posterior area (class I and II)

Contra-indications for use:

 Do not use in persons with a known mercury allergy.

Carving:

Carving can be done immediately after the removal of the matrix. The cuttings that result

must be aspirated immediately. 

Polishing:

Better done on the next day under profuse water cooling. To avoid generation of heat during

polishing, the rotating instrument should be run at the lowest possible

speed.

Packaging:

 Self-activate capsules: 50 per Jar
