BisCover™ LV

Low Viscosity Liquid Polish
BisCover LV is a low-viscosity, light-cured resin formulation used to seal all your composite restorations while leaving a smooth polished/glazed surface. Due to its unique proprietary chemistry, BisCover LV can be cured using an LED, PAC or halogen curing light in 30 seconds without a sticky oxygen-inhibited layer. BisCover LV is resistant to staining and color shifting resulting in more aesthetic results.

Unlike glazing products, BisCover LV can be used inside and outside the mouth to finish direct, indirect and provisional restorations.

Unique Benefits:

• Cures without an oxygen-inhibited layer, resulting in a high gloss surface
• Fully cures with LED, PAC and halogen curing lights
• Reduces or eliminates messy and time consuming manual polishing steps
• Easily seals and protects to prevent microbial attack, prevent staining and increase wear resistance
• Low film thickness eliminates occlusal adjustments

Clinical Significance:

• Unlike glazing products, BisCover LV can be used inside and outside the mouth to leave a dazzling finish
• Can be used on all types of direct, indirect and provisional restorations and appliances

One-Step® / One-Step® Plus

Universal Dental Adhesive and Filled Universal Dental Adhesive
One-Step and One-Step Plus are light-cured, single component adhesives that, unlike others, bond to a multitude of dental substrates, including self-cured and dual-cured materials. One-Step, the clinically proven unfilled adhesive is also available in a filled version, One-Step Plus. The One-Step and One-Step Plus patented* formulations utilize some of the same patented chemistry found in All-Bond 2®.

Unique Benefits:

• Bonds to a multitude of substrates
• Compatible with light-, self- and dual-cured materials (without the use of additional activators)
• A truly one-bottle total-etch adhesive, one of its kind on the market
• Ensures complete seating of restorations due to low film thickness (Approx. 10µm)
• One-Step Plus is formulated with filler particles to help reduce post-operative sensitivity

Clinical Significance:

• Its proprietary chemistry makes it an exceptional adhesive for metal bonding, including implant abutments

Uni-Etch® w/BAC

32% Phosphoric Acid Etchant with Benzalkonium Chloride
Uni-Etch w/BAC is a 32% phosphoric acid semi-gel etchant that is effective at quickly etching enamel and dentin. Uni-Etch w/BAC is polymer-thickened and effectively removes the smear layer, etches and demineralizes enamel and dentin. It is easily manipulated into small areas such as endodontically treated root canals and undercuts. This makes it more versatile than some thicker gel etchants for etching all restorative surfaces. Published research proves that BISCO etchants produce higher bond strengths to (wet or dry) dentin¹ and enamel.

• Rinses away cleanly and quickly leaving no residue to interfere with bonding
• Blue in color for easy visualization and contrast
• Creates microretentive surface characteristics that are necessary for successful bonding.
• New bulk syringe delivery system available
• Contains benzalkonium chloride (BAC), an antimicrobial agent. In-vitro research shows it is effective against Actinomyces viscosus².

NOTE: Inclusion of BAC has not been shown to correlate with a reduction in secondary decay in patients. In-vivo clinical studies to evaluate the effects of BAC on oral bacteria or caries have not been performed.
