Product Features

The kit is compact and well-designed, and the instructions are clear and concise. Lute-It! Luting Cement is easy to dispense, and the shade selection is adequate for most esthetic applications. The try-in pastes are helpful in establishing the final resin shade selection and are easily rinsed off. Initial curing occurs readily, and any excess cement is easy to remove upon initial cure. Consultants commented positively on the ease of mixing and handling as well as on its fluoride-releasing potential and radiopaque features. Seventy percent of clinicans said they would purchase and recommend Lute-It! Luting Cement to a colleague.
