The company’s newest dental material is formulated to deliver a fast, strong, reliable bond with a single layer.
Shofu Dental Corporation’s new BeautiBond Xtreme is a universal bonding agent with proprietary Quad-Adhesive Technology. Due to its unique proprietary chemistry, a single layer provides a fast, strong, and reliable bond.
Described as a powerful all-in-one universal bonding agent, BeautiBond Xtreme’s technology facilitates bonding to enamel, dentin, zirconia, precious metal alloys, composite resins, and glass ceramics.
This new bonding agent is ideal for direct and indirect restorations using any light-cure, dual-cure, or self-cure material without the need for additional primers, Shofu states. BeautiBond Xtreme is a truly universal adhesive formulated to offer flexibility with self-etch, selective-etch, or total-etch techniques. Additionally, BeautiBond Xtreme provides an optimal seal to wet or dry dentin, penetrating deep into the tubules to create resin tags for secure adhesion and dramatic reduction of postoperative sensitivity.
The material’s HEMA-free formula improves the stability of the adhesive, providing a thin and uniform layer with reduced technique sensitivity. With an extremely low film thickness of 5µm, BeautiBond Xtreme prevents marginal stain lines caused by brands with thicker bonding layers. Its easy, 1-step application makes the bonding process consistently reliable and clinically efficient, the company adds.
BeautiBond Xtreme is available in a 50-unit, 0.1ml dose set with microbrushes (MSRP $169.99), and a 5ml, ergonomic-designed, 1-hand-controlled dispensing bottle (MSRP $164.99).
