Prime&Bond universal provides well balanced hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties to ensure complete coverage and penetration at varying moisture levels. So even if dentin is overly wet or dry, you get a reliable bond that actively guards against the leading causes of adhesive failure.
Prime&Bond universal provides:
- Versatility for use with all etching methods, all indications
- Reliable performance on over-wet and over-dried dentin
- Virtually no post-operative sensitivity
- Low film thickness for a reduced risk of pooling and misfit of the restoration
- A relaxed working time and reduced waste, remaining usable for 30 minutes in a closed CliXdish
- High initial bond strength with Calibra Ceram cement for indirect restorations
- A patented formulation free of HEMA, TEGDMA, or bisphenol
Indications:
- Direct, light-cured composite and compomer restorations.
- Composite, ceramic and amalgam repairs.
- Cavity varnish for use with fresh amalgam.
- Indirect restorations cemented with Calibra Universal and Calibra Ceram.
In combination with Dentsply Sirona Self Cure Activator:
- Indirect restorations cemented with dual-cure/self-cure resin cements.
- Direct dual-cure/self-cure composite restorations and core build up.
Benefits
- Active moisture control
- Reliable bonding performance, no matter if the dentin is still too wet or already too dry for virtually no post-operative sensitivity.
- Active cavity spreading
- Actively spreads in the cavity and helps to cover all cavity surfaces.
- Self levelling
- The adhesives self-levels to form a smooth and uniform adhesive layer, helping to avoid dry spots or adhesive pooling.
- Low film thickness
- Adhesive pools can show up as translucent areas on a radiograph, which can easily be misdiagnosed as a void. Thick adhesives may also change crown prep geometry impacting crown fit.
