ProLink CEM Plus Universal Resin Cement is incredibly versatile and can be used for crowns, inlays/onlays, bridges, crowns/abutments on implants and posts. Like other similar self-adhesive cements, pre-treatment of the tooth, such as etching, priming and bonding, is eliminated, reducing steps and saving chair time. Thanks to the dual cure self-adhesive chemistry, the efficient chemical polymerization of the cement ensures optimal bonding when thick or opaque restorations are used and no additional light-curing is needed.

Indications: All-ceramic crowns, inlays/onlays, all-metal or ceramic metal crowns/bridges, high-strength ceramic zirconia, crowns, metal/fiber posts.

Contraindications: Ceramic Veneers, Crown or Bridges with poor retention, resin-bonded bridges.

Features & Benefits:

• The perfect choice when there is adequate retention. Offers one of the most secure holds with no need for additional bond, prime or etching steps.
  • No pre-treatment of tooth or application of primer as for metal & zirconia.
  • Low film thickness (< 0.3 mm) ensures excellent fit of the prosthesis.
  • Excellent color stability for long lasting aesthetic results.
  • Predictable handling, optimized flow of the paste allows for exceptional ease of use and easy removal of excess material.
  • Used in self-cure, light-cure, or dual-cure modes.
  • Superior self-etch adhesive technology.
  • Radiopaque and allows for useful diagnostic and excellent identification under x-ray.
  • Two functional monomers for perfect results.
  • No need for refrigeration.
