Kuraray, after inventing the self-etching technique with Clearfil Liner Bond 2 in 1993, has surpassed their universally accepted total-etch technology with a new product — a new-generation self-etching primer and bonding system called Clearfil Bond.
Clearfil SE Bond is a simplified, light-cure bonding system containing a water-based primer. The procedure time with Clearfil SE Bond is significantly reduced, while providing enhanced bond strength and sealing properties — and, it can be used with all light-cured restoration. The unique “Outer Case” delivery system allows direct finger control of the contents. Other features and benefits include:
- Universal Clinical Applications with New Clearfil DC Activator
- New Catalyst System for Stronger Bond Strengths.
- Exceptional, Unparalleled, Long-Term, Class-V, Clinical Research with CLEARFIL Self-Etch Products (5 Year – 10 Year Recalls 91% – 100% Retention)
- Low Film-Thickness with Indirect Restorations
- Ideal Bulk-Fill Adhesive (Absorbs Stress & Maintains Seal on Dentin)
- Ideal Adhesive Layer For Direct Restorations
- No-shaking, No-mixing, No-scrubbing, No Multiple Applications
- SE Primer 2 Treats Zirconia & Alumina Restorations
- No Light-Curing Inside of Indirect Restorations
Direct Restoration
*Before applying the Primer, selective enamel etch by phosphoric acid is an option.
-
Apply Primer and leave for 20 seconds*. Do not rinse.
-
Dry with mild airflow for 5 seconds.
-
Apply Bond.
-
Make a uniform bond film using a gentle airflow.
-
Light-cure.
-
Apply and light-cure composite.
Indirect Restoration
*Before applying the PRIMER, selective enamel etch by phosphoric acid is an option.
**Light-curing the mixture is an option for optimum performance.
-
Condition the surface of the prostethic restorations following the instructions for use of the restorative material.*
-
Apply Primer and leave for 20 seconds. Do not rinse.
-
Dry with mild airflow for 5 seconds.
-
Apply the mixture of Bond and Clearfil DC Activator.**
-
Dry with mild airflow for 5 seconds. Light-curing is optional.
-
Cement using an adhesive resin cement.
Two components, two steps
Clearfil SE Bond is composed of two single liquids: a mild self-etching primer with a low technique sensitivity and a light-curing bonding agent with a high sealing ability. It is indicated for:
Bonding of direct restorations made of light-curing composite or compomer.
Cavity sealing as a pretreatment for indirect restorations.
Treatment of hypersensitive and/or exposed root surfaces.
Intraoral repair of chipped or fractured restorations made of porcelain, hybrid ceramics or composite resin using light-curing composite.
Surface treatment of prosthetic appliances made of porcelain, hybrid ceramics or cured composite resin.
Durable marginal seal
Powerful hydrolysis resistance for a durable marginal seal: This is offered by Clearfil SE Bond thanks to three features:
- The MDP monomer forms a stable chemical bond between adhesive and tooth structure – resistant to hydrolysis.
- Mild self-etching ensures that the hydroxylapatite is not completely removed from the collagen fibers, protecting them from hydrolytic degradation.
- The bonding agent’s low water sorption further strengthens the marginal seal in the long term.
In this way, the risk of secondary caries is minimized.
Minimal post-operative sensitivities
In Clearfil SE Bond, the mild self-etching primer ensures that irritation caused by moving dentinal fluid is minimized. When the higher viscosity bonding agent is applied on top of the primer, a strong and stable bond layer is created. This layer excellently seals the dentinal tubules, so that occlusal stress caused by potential movement of dentinal fluid is prevented. The result: Minimal postoperative sensitivities.
Simplified application
With Clearfil SE Bond, neither a separate acid etching nor a rinsing step are necessary. Additionally, less attention to the surface moisture level has to begiven: The risk of over-wetting or over-drying of thepreparation is very low e.g. compared to wet bonding systems. This leads to a low technique sensitivity and simplified application requiring only a few steps:
MDP. What else?
Clearfil SE Bond 2 contains the Original MDP Monomer, an essential component of any adhesive product from Kuraray Noritake. Having been in use for more than 35 years, MDP offers a proven excellence in adhesion. The hydrophilic group of the adhesive monomer forms a strong chemical bond with calcium and hydroxylapatite. Since hydroxylapatite crystals remain in the hybrid layer after mild self-etching, a stable hybrid layer is formed by the adhesive. In addition, a strong bond to enamel is ensured.
