KATANA™ CLEANER (New Design)
KATANA CLEANER
Intra- and extra-oral restoration cleaner

For all restorative procedures. Intra- and extra-oral use.
KATANA™ Cleaner has a high cleaning effect due to the surface active characteristic of MDP Salt. In contrast to other cleaners, KATANA™ Cleaner has a pH value of 4.5¹ which allows usage not only extraorally but also intraorally. It is easy to recover the original bond strength for your cementations.
¹ Measuring method: JIS Z 8802:2011


Easy & fast procedure
Unlike other cleaners that require longer rubbing time, KATANA™ Cleaner
only requires 10 seconds.



How it works

High cleaning effect
After the intra-oral try-in of restorations, saliva and/or blood reduce the bond strength. KATANA™ Cleaner's high effectiveness in cleaning recovers the original bonding strength. Now you are really prepared to cement your restoration!

Cleaning effect on zirconia
Contamination with artificial saliva
Contamination assessment based on the degree of staining with a stain that binds to proteins present in saliva.
Contamination with blood (human plasma)
The degree of contamination is evaluated by the degree of staining with an agent that binds to (albumin, fibrinogen, immunoglobulin) proteins present in human plasma.

Wide range of indications
KATANA™ Cleaner can be used not only extra-orally but also intra-orally, making it an all-purpose universal cleaner for the tooth structure and prosthetics.
Intra-oral:
- Cavity
- Abutment
- Root Canal
Prosthetics:
- Ceramics (Zirconia, Lithium Disilicate, Dental Porcelain)
- Resin Based Materials (CAD/CAM Crowns, Composite Resin)
- Metals (Precious/Non Precious Metal Alloys)
- Posts (Glass Fiber Posts, Metal Posts)

The ideal teammates
PANAVIA™ V5 is our strongest cement ever developed. And with five shades, our most esthetic one too. This makes a totally new kind of dentistry possible, where you can be confident during cementation.
PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal contains the unique LCSi monomer that adheres to virtually every material including glass ceramics without the need for a separate primer. The original MDP monomer allows for chemical reactiveness with zirconia, dentin and enamel.
