Light-Cured Dental Adhesive
All-Bond Universal is the culmination of over 30 years of adhesive research at BISCO. As a universal adhesive it can be used with direct and indirect restorations and is formulated to be compatible with light-, dual- and self-cured materials. The versatility of All-Bond Universal makes it an indispensable part of any dental practice.

Unique Benefits:

• Not moisture sensitive use on wet, dry or moist tooth structure
• Impressive bond strength to ALL substrates
• Use with ALL direct and indirect restorations (<10 micron thickness)
• Ideal chemical balance for both total- and self-etch adhesion from one bottle
• Compatible with ALL resin cements (no additional activator required)
• Virtually no post-operative sensitivity

Clinical Significance:

• All-Bond Universal offers the flexibility for total-, self- and selective-etch procedures
• All-Bond Universal is compatible with all light-, self- and dual-cured resin composite and cement materials for all direct and indirect procedures
• Other single bottle adhesives may need more than 1 bottle for indirect restorations, but with All-Bond Universal, NO activator is required.

BISCO’s porcelain primers are silane coupling agents used to improve bonding between porcelain restorations and resin cements. It also protects porcelain restorations from contamination, increases mechanical and chemical bonding of resin to the porcelain, and yields greater resistance to water leakage at the bonding interface.

• Porcelain Primer
  A single component pre-hydrolyzed no-mix silane primer
• Bis-Silane™
  A two-part silane coupling agent offering additional shelf-life stability to ensure long lasting effective bonding to porcelain

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.

ZirClean is a cleaning gel designed for the non-abrasive cleaning of the bonding surfaces of zirconia (and other prosthetic restorations) after intraoral try-in. ZirClean helps to achieve reliable adhesive cementation results by removing the phosphate contamination of zirconia (as well as ceramic and metal restoration surfaces) that occur during try-in.*

Unique Benefits:

• Delivery system offers improved ease-of-use
• Easy placement and clean up
• Helps achieve reliable adhesive cementation results*
• Contaminants such as saliva can be removed to help achieve better bond strength  after try-in*

Clinical Significance:

• The use of ZirClean will help to achieve reliable cementation results with Zirconia restorations after intraoral try-in.*

Zirconia – Alumina – Metal Primer
Z-Prime Plus is a single-component priming agent used to enhance adhesion between indirect restorative materials and composite resin cements.

Z-Prime Plus significantly enhances bond strengths to Zirconia, Alumina and Metal substrates due to its unique combination of two active monomers, MDP, a phosphate monomer, and BPDM, a carboxylate monomer.* This combination of primers gives Z-Prime Plus a synergistic effect resulting in its high bond strengths.*

Unique Benefits:

• High bond strengths to Zirconia, Alumina and Metal restorations
• Compatible with light-cured and dual-cured resin luting cements
• Convenient, single bottle delivery offers ease of dispensing
• Versatility and durability with many different substrates
• Significantly enhances bond strengths of other resin cements*

Clinical Significance:

• Z-Prime Plus significantly enhances bond strengths to Zirconia, Alumina and Metal substrates.
