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.
