Consultants’ Comment

  • “Excellent product.”
  • “This cement can be used in multiple situations. In my office, less (products) is more.”
  • “I like the fluoride-release and excellent retention.”
  • “It is versatile and strong. I have used it to re-cement crowns and bridges on very short, fractured teeth with minimal retention, and the restorations have stayed on.”
  • “Good color-coded instructions for use.”
  • “A ‘must have’ for any dental office.”
  • “Shades were too opaque in some instances.”
  • “It would be nice if there were fewer steps, and a faster setting time.”

Clinical Tips

  • Make sure to remove excess cement at the tack-cure stage, as once curing is complete, it becomes difficult to remove, especially interproximally.
  • The opaque cement may take longer to self-cure.
  • The cement sets quickly, so make sure the crown is completely seated before removing excess cement.
  • 3 to 5 seconds was the ideal tack-curing time.
  • Great for preparations with minimal retention.
