Kerr Optibond FL
Code: 2009.01Product detailed description
Properties:
- Efficient application flow – one-coat primer, one-coat adhesive, one light curing; wet or dry preparations
- High radiopacity, making X-ray detection easy
- Availability in bottle and Unidose delivery
- Proven long-term performance
- OptiBond FL Adhesive is 48% filled with 0.6 microns barium glass, is fluoride releasing and is radiopaque.
- This unique technology provides the highest level of protection against microleakage, while sustaining high bond strengths to a variety of surfaces.
- The filled adhesive provides a true “structural bond” not found in unfilled adhesive systems.
- With OptiBond FL, adhesion promoters are carried in an ethanol solvent, diminishing the need for multiple coats.
Method of use:
1. Isolate prep and dry.
2. Place Kerr Gel Etchant with 37.5% phosphoric acid on enamel and dentin for 15 seconds.
Rinse with water until etchant has been completely removed – approximately 15 seconds.
Gently air dry for a few seconds being careful not to dessicate dentin.
3. Dispense OptiBond FL Prime (Bottle 1) into disposable mixing well.
Apply material over enamel and dentin surfaces with a light scrubbing motion for 15 seconds.
Gently air dry for approximately 5 seconds. At this point the dentin surface should have a slightly shiny appearance.
Do not allow salivary contamination.
4. Dispense and apply OptiBond FL Adhesive (Bottle 2) over enamel and dentin uniformly creating a thin coating.
Blow to margin or to thin if necessary using a light application of air.
5. Light cure.
