Riva Silver from SDI is a mercury free fluoride releasing glass ionomer silver restorative which has strength, chemical adhesion, fluoride release and easy handling.

Riva Silver releases high levels of fluoride, resulting in increased anticariogenic properties and improved longevity of the restoration. Its condensable nature allows the operator to quickly and easily place the restoration and can be packed using an amalgam condenser. Its high compressive strength minimises the risk of fracture in the critical early stages after the restoration has been placed while the heat accelerated setting mechanism allows the material to ‘snap set’. The addition of metal particles into the cement substantially increases radiopacity and it is easily differentiated from tooth structure, enabling easy diagnosis.
