- This is a non-eugenol, temporary resin cement designed specifically for implant-retained restorations
- It offers enhanced features over its predecessor, including superior radiopacity and a stronger, more reliable hold while still allowing for easy retrieval
Uses
- Permanent implant crown cementation:
- It provides a strong, secure, and long-lasting hold for implant-retained crowns, while still being retrievable
- Long-term temporary cementation:
- Ideal for long-term provisionals where increased retention is desired
- Easy, non-destructive crown retrieval:
- The cement's design, which relies on mechanical rather than chemical retention, allows the crown to be removed without damaging the implant, abutment, or crown itself. This is crucial for potential retreatment or adjustments
Features
- Enhanced radiopacity:
- Provides clear visibility on radiographs, allowing the dental professional to easily identify and remove excess cement, particularly in interproximal areas, which could otherwise cause tissue inflammation
- Tough elastomeric resin:
- The material is designed to flex under force, absorb shock, and resist breakdown from daily chewing stresses
- Two-stage cure:
- Has an initial gel phase in approximately 2 to 2.5 minutes, allowing for easy removal of excess cement. The final set is rigid, providing an excellent marginal seal
- Non-eugenol formula:
- Contains no eugenol, making it safe for use with all dental materials
- Automix syringe delivery:
- The product comes in a convenient dual-barrel automix syringe, ensuring a consistent and precise application without manual mixing
- Aesthetic gingival shade:
- The pink color of this particular pack helps the cement blend with the gingival tissue for a natural appearance
- Predictable and easy application:
- No etch, primers, or bonding agents are required, simplifying the cementation procedure
- Tight marginal seal:
- The formula creates a tight seal that will not wash out, protecting the implant from the surrounding oral environment
