A Simplified System for Superior Cementation
Coltene delivers the efficiency and quality dental professionals need with two easy-to-use solutions that can be used separately or together for reliable, long-lasting adhesion
In dentistry, convenience is priceless, but it should never come at the cost of quality. With this philosophy in mind, Coltene has developed 2 innovative solutions that give clinicians the best of both worlds. Used individually or together, Coltene’s SoloCem and ONE COAT 7 UNIVERSAL enable strong, safe cementation with a super-simple, time-saving workflow.
Individually Strong...
SoloCem is a self-adhesive dual-curing resin cement designed to be a trusted partner in permanent bonding of virtually all indirect restorations. Indications for use include composite, metal, zirconia, and ceramic crowns; bridges, inlays, and onlays; as well as root posts made from any conventional material. Thanks to monomers in its unique, composite-like formulation, when used on its own, self-adhesion with SoloCem achieves high bond strengths, while the material’s automix syringe and ready-to-use mixing tips save time and hassle.
“SoloCem is now my preferred resin cement,” said Georgia-based practitioner Sean Grady, DDS. “It’s easy to use and the bond strength is better than what I’ve experienced with similar products.” Dr. Grady also appreciates that, with SoloCem, quick and easy excess cement removal can be accomplished after 3 seconds of light curing. “I can say with certainty that SoloCem is easier to clean up than most other resin cements on the market.”
To ensure long-term durability and stability, SoloCem features a low shrinkage factor proven to exceed that of at least 2 other leading cements. The cement even provides protection against bacteria, thanks to its inclusion of antimicrobial zinc oxide. Moreover, SoloCem comes in a range of 3 shades—Dentin, White Opaque, and Translucent—each offering the color stability and wear resistance to stand up to discoloration, along with the fluorescence needed for ideal integration with natural dentition.
...But Better Together
For clinical situations that require a stronger adhesive bond to dentin or enamel, SoloCem can be paired with ONE COAT 7 UNIVERSAL. Whether using a self-, selective-, or total-etch technique, this one-component, light-cured universal adhesive reliably produces exceptional bonding with an excellent marginal seal. And like SoloCem, ONE COAT 7 UNIVERSAL is designed for ease of use: the optimized dropper allows for precise, clean dosing without dripping, and each bottle delivers up to 300 applications.
“I only use one coat of ONE COAT 7 UNIVERSAL for composite restorations and that is truly all that’s necessary,” Dr. Grady reported. “The viscosity is such where you are certain one coat is all you need.”
Cement Confidently
With successful cementation just 1 or 2 simple steps away, SoloCem and ONE COAT 7 UNIVERSAL free up inventory space and appointment time—not only affording more time to focus on patient care but providing greater peace of mind. “There is something to be said for the confidence a product gives you when using it,” Dr. Grady explained. “I now walk into cementation appointments with confidence, knowing the restoration and cement will meet my expectations.”
