product profile Adhese Universal: Universality, Performance and Productivity The only universal dental adhesive available in the revolutionary VivaPen delivery form. Ivoclar Vivadent introduces Adhese Universal, a new single-component, lightcured universal adhesive for direct and indirect bonding procedures. Adhese Universal features compatibility with all etching techniques: self-etch, selective enamel-etch and total-etch. The VivaPen delivery form ensures fast and convenient application of the adhesive directly in the patient's mouth. Adhese Universal is technique tolerant and forgiving. It forms a stable, homogenous layer that is not sensitive to any application technique. Consistently high bond strengths on enamel and dentin are achieved irrespective of the etching protocol employed, using only a single layer of adhesive. The acetone-free, hydrophilic solvent contained in Adhese Universal ensures optimum wetting of the dentin and enamel. This results in enhanced infiltration and optimum sealing of the dentinal tubules to prevent microleakage and the associated post-operative sensitivity. "If I need one drop, or four, it is as easy as pushing a button on the VivaPen," explains Dr. Thomas Trinkner, who made the switch to the VivaPen. "No more going back and forth to the well to get enough material to cover the prep and no more unused material left in the well. I love the reduced waste and the time saved." Many clinicians don't realize how much adhesive waste occurs in their practice because they seldom use the entire amount of adhesive dispensed in the well. Adhese Universal adhesive is delivered directly intra-orally using the VivaPen, so there is virtually no waste. Adhese Universal VivaPen delivers up to 190 single-tooth applications, significantly more than a traditional adhesive bottle. This drastically decreases cost per application and contributes to more cost-effective treatments. n Company Contact Ivoclar Vivadent is a global leader in innovative materials and processes for quality, aesthetic dentistry.
