Prime&Bond Universal | Universal Adhesive

Description

• ACTIVE MOISTURE CONTROL TOO WET OR TOO DRY: NO PROBLEM.

- Most adhesives are comparatively hydrophobic, tending to separate from water.

- With too much water on the prepared surface, the adhesive can’t achieve uniform coverage, leaving gaps that may weaken the bond and may cause post-operative sensitivity. If dentin is overly dried, collagen fibers can collapse
and prevent effective sealing.

- Prime&Bond universal™ overcomes the surface tension of water and spreads across dentin and into dentinal tubules to form an even, homogeneous layer.

- Upon air-drying, the solvent and water evaporate together, leaving a consistent coating of adhesive across the entire surface to ensure a strong bond.

• Active Control for Reliable Restorations

- Prime&Bond universal™ introduces the new, patented Active-Guard™ Technology.

- Our formulation 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:

• All etching methods, all indications for more versatility

• Active moisture control

• Active spreading

• Low film thickness

• Active tubule penetration

Selective enamel etching – ideal for class II restorations.

Get high bond strength in dentin, a tight seal at the enamel margin and minimal etchant exposure.

Prime&Bond universal™ provides active control and consistent results – for virtually no post-operative sensitivity

• LOW FILM THICKNESS

Thick adhesives can have a tendency to pool in the corners of the proximal box of a Class II restoration. These adhesive pools can show up as translucent areas on a radiograph, which can easily be misdiagnosed as a void, gap, or secondary decay, leading to unnecessary replacement. Thicker adhesives may also change crown prep geometry, impacting crown fit.
