Gingiva Shield VLC is a light-curing, resin-based gingival barrier supplied in convenient syringe packing. It is designed to isolate the gum tissue and neighbouring teeth during whitening and other dental procedures, forming an impervious seal that protects soft tissue from contact with bleaching agents or other treatment materials.
The resin is applied directly from the syringe along the gingival margin, then cured with a visible light curing (VLC) unit to set the barrier in place. Once the procedure is complete, the cured barrier lifts away from the gum and inter-tooth spaces easily, leaving no residue behind. Its blue shade makes the barrier easy to see and check for complete, continuous coverage before starting treatment.
