BeautiBond Bonding Agent

BeautiBond Bonding Agent

Shofu Dental Corporation

This seventh-generation bonding agent provides one-step convenience.

Shofu Dental’s BeautiBond is a seventh-generation bonding agent that provides clinicians with dual adhesive monomers in a single onestep, self-etch adhesive. According to the manufacturer, BeautiBond’s dual adhesive monomers deliver equal bond strength to enamel and dentin as well as bond strengths comparable to leading multi-component brands. This HEMA-free adhesive is characterized by its single-coat, 30-second application, its low film thickness (5 μm), and its unit dose design.

G-ænial Bond Self-Etching Bonding Agent

G-ænial Bond Self-Etching Bonding Agent

GC America Inc.

The HEMA-free formulation of G-ænial Bond makes it efficient and easy to use.

GC America’s G-ænial Bond is a 7th-generation, 1-step, self-etch bonding agent designed to improve bond strength to enamel and dentin. It was designed to provide the option of selective etching (self-etch on dentin and etchand- rinse on enamel), so clinicians can use the most appropriate technique in a given situation to achieve the best result for patients.

Futurabond DC

One-Step, Dual-Cured Self-Etch Adhesive in Unit-Dose Blister Packs

A single-dose delivery system enhances the convenience of VOCO America’s nano-reinforced, eighth-generation Futurabond DC.

VOCO America’s Futurabond DC is now available in a patented SingleDose delivery system designed for “easy, quick, and hygienic” use with each procedure. According to VOCO, the unit-dose blister pack ensures reliable bond strength with each use by preventing solvent evaporation.

Adper Easy Bond Self-Etch Adhesive

Easy Bond adhesive simultaneously etches and bonds to dentin and enamel in 1 step.

Adper Easy Bond Self-Etch Adhesive, according to 3M ESPE, is designed for strength, simplicity, and convenience. Easy Bond is based on much of the same science behind Adper Scotchbond Multi-Purpose Adhesive and Adper Single Bond Plus Adhesive.

ALL-BOND SE

Self-Etch Adhesive

All-Bond SE, a universal adhesive, works with light-cured, self-cured, and dual-cured composite materials.

Recently introduced by Bisco, All-Bond SE is said by the manufacturer to provide dentists with universal compatibility, increased bond strength and reliability, reduced postoperative sensitivity, and increased flexibility. In addition, the All- Bond SE Liner is radiopaque so that it can be seen in radiographs.

Bond-1 SF SE

Solvent-Free, Self-Etch Adhesive

Bond-1 solvent-free, self-etch adhesive combines superior bond strength with reduced sensitivity.

Pentron’s new Bond-1 SF SE is free of the solvents found in virtually all other adhesives but still produces the high bond strength obtained with conventional agents. According to the manufacturer, the light-cured, self-etch adhesive forms an interactive bond between its resins and the minerals of the tooth structure, providing a superior bond to both dentin and enamel without the use of acetone, water, or alcohol.

Go!

Go! is a single-component, light-cured, self-etching, fluoride-releasing dentin and enamel bonding system.

SDI describes Go! as an adhesive that saves dentists time at the chair. According to the manufacturer, the user does not have to shake the bottle, etch the dentin, or wash it off. It also does not need to be rubbed or agitated.

Peak Self-Etch Adhesive System

The JetMix syringe system ensures fresh, consistent delivery of Peak self-etch adhesive.

According to Ultradent, the company made a deliberate decision to postpone offering a self-etch adhesive system until they felt confident that it could deliver a reliable product. The company wanted to create a product that would eliminate many of the problems that often occur with self-etch adhesive systems—degradation of the many chemicals that are required, which can lead to reduced bond strength.
