| Dentsply Prime & Bond Universal is a highly versatile dental adhesive that can be used in a wide range of dental procedures, allowing for all etching methods and indications. It effectively addresses the challenges posed by overly wet or dry dentin, ensuring reliable bonding performance in various moisture conditions. The formulation of Prime & Bond Universal is designed to minimize post-operative sensitivity, providing a comfortable experience for patients. Its low film thickness reduces the risk of pooling and misfit of the restoration, promoting optimal outcomes. The adhesive offers a relaxed working time of 30 minutes in a closed CliXdish, reducing waste and optimizing efficiency. When used with Calibra Ceram cement for indirect restorations, it demonstrates high initial bond strength, ensuring the durability of the restoration. Prime & Bond Universal’s patented formulation is free of HEMA, TEGDMA, and bisphenol, addressing concerns related to these substances. It is commonly used for direct, light-cured composite and compomer restorations, as well as for composite, ceramic, and amalgam repairs. Additionally, it can serve as a cavity varnish for fresh amalgam restorations. The adhesive’s unique properties allow it to overcome the surface tension of water, spreading evenly across dentin and penetrating into dentinal tubules to form a consistent adhesive layer. |
| 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. |
| Versatility: It can be used with all etching methods and for all indications, making it suitable for a wide range of dental procedures. Reliable performance: It demonstrates reliable bonding performance even on dentin that is overly wet or dry, ensuring consistent results. Minimal post-operative sensitivity: The adhesive formulation minimizes the risk of post-operative sensitivity, providing comfort to the patient after the procedure. Low film thickness: The adhesive has a low film thickness, reducing the chances of pooling and misfit of the restoration, which can compromise the final result. Extended working time: Prime & Bond Universal remains usable for 30 minutes in a closed CliXdish, providing a relaxed working time and reducing waste. High initial bond strength: When used with Calibra Ceram cement for indirect restorations, it offers high initial bond strength, ensuring the longevity of the restoration. Free of certain chemicals: The patented formulation of Prime & Bond Universal is free of HEMA (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate), TEGDMA (triethylene glycol dimethacrylate), or bisphenol, addressing concerns related to these substances. |
| Prepare the tooth surface according to the specific dental procedure. Ensure that the tooth surface is clean and free from debris. Apply an appropriate etching method based on the indication and follow the manufacturer’s instructions. Rinse the etchant thoroughly and dry the tooth surface gently using oil-free, moisture-free air. Shake the bottle of Prime & Bond Universal adhesive well before use. Dispense a small amount of the adhesive onto a disposable mixing well or other suitable containers. Apply a thin, even layer of Prime & Bond Universal adhesive to the prepared tooth surface using an applicator or brush. Ensure complete coverage of the surface, including dentin and enamel. Allow the adhesive to dwell on the tooth surface for the recommended time as specified by the manufacturer. Use gentle air pressure or a gentle stream of oil-free, moisture-free air to evaporate the solvent and water from the adhesive layer. Do not over-dry the adhesive; a slightly moist surface is desirable. Proceed with the placement of the restorative material according to the specific procedure. |
