PANAVIA™ Veneer LC WINS PREFERRED PRODUCT AND RESEARCH AWARDS

PANAVIA™ Veneer LC has been singled out for a Research Award in the category Research – Veneer Cement by Dental Advisor and for a Preferred Product Award in the category Cement: Esthetic Resin. Published in the January/February 2025 issue of the US-based organisation, the annual Top Product, Preferred Product or Research Awards are given to those materials and devices deemed by the publication’s consultants to deliver the best practice-based or lab-based performance in their categories.

 

BENEFITS IN A NUTSHELL

PANAVIA™ Veneer LC is a specialized veneer cement designed to provide exceptional bond strength to various substrates, along with outstanding gloss retention and wear resistance. The resin cement utilizes smaller-diameter spherical filler particles, facilitating easy dispensing from the syringe and excellent flowability for minimal film thickness. All of these attributes contribute to virtually no change in gloss or surface appearance of veneer margins over time.

 

 

EXCELLENT PROPERTIES IN VITRO

To assess the scientific performance of PANAVIA™ Veneer LC, its features and physical properties, specifically its bond strength to various substrates after artificial aging and its wear resistance, were tested in the Dental Advisor Biomaterials Research Center. The investigators’ testing of these attributes reflects the challenges such products must meet – “Ideally, esthetic veneer cements should have a long working time, curing on demand, excellent color stability, and high strength”.

 

To assess bond strength to dentin, enamel, IPS e.max CAD, and zirconia, the cements were subjected to six months of artificial aging using thermocycling. To test wear resistance after toothbrush abrasion, the testing method involved measuring depth of wear, change in surface roughness, and change in gloss based on a simulation of about 5.5 years of regular toothbrush use.

 

The investigators reported that PANAVIA™ Veneer LC “had the best gloss retention of the three cements tested and a very even wear pattern,” noting further that “having limited surface roughness after toothbrush abrasion can help lower staining and bacterial adhesion.” Overall, they said, “The PANAVIA™ Veneer LC cement system showed excellent adhesion properties and exceptional gloss retention and wear resistance,” concluding:

 

 

OUTSTANDING RATING OF 96 PERCENT

In addition, the product was tested in the clinical setting. 25 clinical evaluators used PANAVIA™ Veneer LC cement system in their dental offices. After a total of 166 uses, the light-curing resin cement received “excellent” to “very good” ratings with regard to completeness of the kit, the shade of the try-in pastes, ease of clean-up of the try-in pastes and excess cement, viscosity, working time and lack of shade shift after curing.

 

The evaluator’s clinical tips included:

  • „Use a micro brush or rubber tip to clean up excess cement before curing.”
  • „Apply glycerin gel to the margins after placing the veneer with the cement to eliminate the oxygen inhibition layer and ensure a complete cure before light curing through the gel.”

 

In their comments, they praised the ease of use of the system, the design of the syringes, the shade options and shade match between try-in and cement shades, e.g.:

  • “The white shade of the cement was opaque enough for efficient masking of discolored tooth structure.”
  • “Great esthetics, very easy to use, complete system.”

 

This resulted in an overall clinical rating of 96 percent and an equally high recommendation rate.

A new universal adhesive born in Japan

Interview with the team at Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc., who developed and brought to life this new universal adhesive.

 

Streamlining, enhancing and refining adhesive procedures – these are the aims of an 5-person team at Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc. in Japan. Recently, the team has developed a next-generation universal adhesive CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 that offers quick and easy application combined with an optimised bonding performance. To learn more about the goals and achievements of the development project, and the benefits of the product, we had a conversation with them.

Why did you decide to improve CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick?

Universal adhesives like CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick are very well received by dental practitioners all over the world mainly due to their versatility and procedural simplicity. In the clinical setting, however, we have identified room for improvement. For example, it can be difficult to establish thin, uniform and strong bonding layers with the currently available products. Water and solvents in universal adhesives often limit the formation of a strong bond layer. A thin bonding layer and the relatively thick oxygen inhibition layer make this type of bonding agent susceptible to degradation by water sorption from dentinal moisture. Highly viscous bonding agents also complicate the ease of application in small cavities and can easily lead to pooling of the adhesive in critical parts of the cavity. Adhesives with a relatively high viscosity may pool or accumulate along margins, and may form a layer that is too thick and may change the morphology of the abutment tooth, a critical factor potentially affecting the fit of an indirect restoration. Generally, bonding agents with a low film thickness and/or are low-filled or unfilled, in turn have a potentially negative effect on the strength of the bonding layer. At Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc., we wanted to address the aforementioned issues and have developed a universal adhesive that is easy to apply and facilitates the establishing of thin, uniform bonding layers exhibiting high strength.

 

What are the indications of CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2?

The new universal adhesive is indicated for bonding procedures in the context of creating direct restorations with light-cured composite, sealing of a prepared cavity or abutment tooth as a pretreatment for indirect restorations, treatment of exposed root surfaces and hypersensitive teeth, and also the intraoral repair of fractured restorations. Furthermore, the product is a suitable adhesive in post-cementation and core build-up procedures as well as in adhesive cementing of indirect restorations. When used in the context of the cementing of indirect restorations, the bonding to tooth structure of PANAVIA™ SA Cement Universal and of other manufacturers’ self-adhesive resin cements improves, leading to higher bond strengths.

 

What are the corresponding general benefits of CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick AND CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2?

The general benefits of both products are that they may be used with any etching procedure, plus the fact that there is no need to wait for the adhesive to penetrate the tooth structure after application. In addition, both products contain the original MDP monomer and the amide monomer, responsible for the formation of a thin and strong surface coating. Both products exhibit low technique sensitivity and are suitable for a wide range of indications. Finally, the adhesive monomers and fluoride offer extra protection to the underlying dentin.

You mentioned the original MDP monomer as one of the essential components of the new adhesive and its predecessor. Is there a difference between this original MDP monomer and other MDP monomers available on the market?

Our MDP monomer is the only MDP monomer that is manufactured using the originally developed synthesis and purification process. Research has shown that the way MDP is manufactured has indeed an impact on the performance of the monomer itself1. While impurities and dimers detected in MDP monomers synthesized elsewhere negatively affected the immediate and aged micro-tensile bond strength in the in-vitro study, our MDP monomer shows high purity and more favourable test results.

 

Most universal adhesives need to be rubbed into the tooth structure extensively for 10 to 20 seconds. What did you do to eliminate the waiting time independent of the etching procedure, which led to an ultra-quick application procedure?

It is the amide monomer which is mainly responsible for an improved penetration speed into the tooth structure. The hydrophilicity of this monomer is much higher than the hydrophilicity of the HEMA monomer that is typically used. This provides for a better penetration into the moist dentin. The amide monomer’s polymerisation characteristics are better, and, following polymerisation, leads to higher stability in a wet environment due to the formation of a highly cross-linked polymer network. In combination with MDP, an efficient long-term performance will likely be achieved. For optimal outcomes, the adhesive is simply rubbed into the tooth structure as described in the IFU: “Apply BOND with a rubbing motion to the entire cavity wall with the applicator brush. No waiting time is required.”

 

What are the additional benefits that CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 has to offer?

First of all, we improved the viscosity and film thickness by optimizing the manufacturing method. The thin adhesive layer prevents pooling in the cavity, around abutments and along margins, creating a uniform bonding layer. Simply put, the new adhesive is applied thinly and spreads evenly. At the same time, the product offers high mechanical strength and excellent resistance to water sorption. Its bond strength is high in all etching modes and the new formulation allows for the product to be stored at room temperature.

 

Please explain the clinical benefit of an improved mechanical strength.

The risk of decreasing the film thickness lies in a possible decrease in the strength of the bonding layer which can lead to reduced bond durability. By introducing a new multifunctional urethane methacrylate monomer, we have been able to increase the strength. The effective advantage of the new bonding agent is that it can easily be used in small, difficult-to-access cavities or in cavities with complex morphology. The result is a thin yet strong adhesive layer that also allows for easy placement of any type of restoration.

 

 

How did you manage to improve the storage conditions?

Component stability was not an issue with CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick. However, for a stable viscosity, it needed low-temperature storage. By optimizing the manufacturing method and decreasing the viscosity of CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2, storage at room temperature became possible.

 

Was it difficult to integrate the new components and keep the existing benefits? How did you manage?

Integrating new components and removing others always means that the whole formulation needs to be rebalanced properly. This was particularly challenging for the multifunctional urethane methacrylate monomer we wanted to add. It improves the strength and hardness of the universal adhesive, but may affect adhesion depending on the amount of the compound in the formulation. Consequently, we needed to carefully find optimal balance, which took some time and required thorough testing, but in the end, we succeeded.

 

 

 

At the moment, the immediate dentin sealing technique is popular in indirect restoration procedures. What makes CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 suited for this technique?

Immediate dentin sealing is indeed a popular and useful technique that can result in significantly increased retention, reduced marginal leakage, improved bond strength, and less postoperative sensitivity. Using CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 in this context is beneficial as the procedure is quick, the resulting bonding layer is thin and strong, and the dentin is effectively protected.

 

Why should a dental practitioner switch to CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2?

For users of CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick, switching to CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 is worthwhile, as it offers additional advantages and improved performance while retaining the benefits of its predecessor. For users of other universal adhesives, the major benefit lies in the shortened application time: CLEARFIL™ Universal Bond Quick 2 is the only universal adhesive that can achieve a high bond strength and a high-strength bonding layer without any waiting time. In addition, it is suitable for a wide range of indications including core build-up procedures and cementation.

 

Thank you very much for these insights!

A dynamic duo for natural-looking, functional restorations

Case by Kostia Vyshamirski, DT

 

KATANA™ Zirconia YML AND CERABIEN™ MiLai

Virtually every patient in need of restorative treatment desires functional restorations with an aesthetic appearance. However, the individual expectations and needs may be very different depending on the clinical situation (state of the natural tooth structure, parafunctional behaviour, periodontal health etc.), the patient’s financial resources and personal preferences. A versatile material combination fulfilling many different needs and desires is KATANA™ Zirconia YML finished using micro-layering with the new CERABIEN™ MiLai (both Kuraray Noritake Dental Inc.).

 

This system supports low invasive preparations due to a favourable minimum wall thickness of the merely monolithic multi-layered zirconium oxide prosthesis and a minimal thickness of the porcelain layer in the aesthetic zone. Moreover, the high strength zirconium oxide prosthesis combined with only a very thin layer of porcelains makes this technique extremely useful in patients with parafunctional habits like bruxism. Last but not least, consisting of a carefully compiled selection of internal stains and porcelain shades, CERABIEN™ MiLai supports the creation of individual 3D shade effects that mimic those of natural teeth even when space is limited. The following case example reveals how this is possible.

 

INITIAL SITUATION

The patient presented with concerns related to both function and appearance. During the diagnostic phase, it was determined that increasing the vertical dimension of occlusion (VDO) and creating a wax-up in the new jaw position would be necessary to improve both the occlusion and the aesthetic appearance of the smile.

Fig. 2. Intraoral scan of both jaws confirming the need for an increase of the VDO.

 

Fig. 3. Intraoral scan: Occlusal view of the maxillary teeth.

 

TREATMENT PLANNING AND COMPUTER-AIDED DESIGN

Following the approval of the wax-up, the treatment plan was created. It consisted of restoring the four anterior incisors with zirconia crowns and performing direct composite restorations on the posterior and lower teeth. To conserve as much of the healthy tooth structure as possible, the space created was aligned to the required wall thickness of the planned restoration (framework + micro-layer of porcelain in the vestibular areas only). Following an aesthetic analysis, the crowns were designed with a minimal vestibular cutback. This was due to the patient’s functional problems, which would increase the chipping risk in case of using a more heavy cutback design with a thicker, more conventional porcelain layer. KATANA™ Zirconia YML offers exceptional aesthetics, requiring only a 0.3 mm reduction for the porcelain to achieve natural results. Therefore, it was the logical material choice for this specific case.

CROWN PRODUCTION

Immediately after milling, the zirconia surface was treated with effect liquids. This kind of pre-sintered characterization helps enhance the characteristics of zirconia restorations. In the presented case, orange stain was applied to the cervical area, while a blue stain was used at the incisal edge. In addition, a white opaque liquid was applied to the inner surface of the central zirconia crowns to block out any discolouration from the underlying tooth structure. Following final sintering, the vestibular layer of porcelain was built up with CERABIEN™ MiLai using a combination of internal stains and porcelain micro-layering. After morphological adjustments and surface polishing, the restorations were completed by applying CERABIEN™ ZR FC Paste Stain and Glaze. Final polishing was then performed to enhance the natural appearance of the surfaces.

FINAL OUTCOME

The finalized restorations showcase great details, crafted with CERABIEN™ MiLai internal stains and porcelains. The result are natural-looking restorations. An additional benefit of using zirconia as a restorative material is its excellent compatibility, which is evident in the healthy gingival conditions.

Practical chroma maps for anterior case

CERABIEN™ MiLai in Daily Use

A tooth with crack lines, a characteristic round shape, age-related changes, or medication-induced discoloration — there’s no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to all-ceramic anterior restorations, even when the porcelain system and production technique are defined.

 

To support technicians who wish to simplify their layering workflow using the micro-layering technique and CERABIEN™ MiLai — whether just getting started or looking to refine their process — we’ve collaborated with DT Dumitru Leahu to create a Chroma Map Catalogue featuring seven typical anterior restoration scenarios.

 

 

Each case example includes a detailed screenshot of the framework design, chroma maps outlining the planned steps, images of internal staining and micro-layering procedures, and the final restoration on the model. You’ll also find essential information about the selected framework material, target shade, and other relevant details.

 

We invite you to use the CERABIEN™ MiLai Catalogue as a step-by-step guide to success or simply as inspiration for individual cases. It offers a fast track to understanding the material’s optical properties and will make planning your next micro-layering case more intuitive. No need to start from scratch — instead, adapt what’s already there and gradually develop your own maps and techniques.
