Scientific information

Is it safe to use the single-component PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal to lute virtually all your indirect restorations?

Did you ever ask yourself how many components are really needed to safely cement your silicate-ceramic, zirconia or resin-based restorations? With PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal, a single component is usually sufficient. Containing an unreacted silane coupling agent – the LCSi monomer – and the original MDP monomer, the dual-cure, self-adhesive resin cement adheres to tooth structure and to various restorative materials including the popular silica-based ceramics without the need for a separate primer.

For those wondering how it works and if it really works as well as desired, Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc. has created a scientific brochure. It contains in-depth information about the drivers of chemical adhesion contained in PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal and its characteristic properties. The main part, however, focuses on the results of scientific studies – most of which have been conducted in external laboratories. With the aid of artificial aging, different testing devices and various experimental set-ups, the researchers have checked the resin cement thoroughly. The study results shed light on the behaviour of the material when used in the context of bonding to different restorative materials and different types of tooth structure. Self- and light-curing modes are compared, aging effects investigated and different moisture conditions taken into account.

As a whole, the collected data allows for a precise prediction of the clinical behaviour of PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal. This valuation has already been confirmed by clinical experience of dental practitioners from all around the world. Moreover, the results of a first clinical study, which is also found in this compilation, are a proof of its exceptional performance.
