Procedure 1

Dentin/Enamel Bonding

  1. Isolate, clean and prepare tooth. Place appropriate base/liner in deep cavities, if desired.
  2. Etch enamel and dentin with Etch-All 10% phosphoric acid gel for 20-30 seconds. Rinse completely. Keep this surface clean. Avoid saliva contamination. Apply air for one second to remove excess water, but DO NOT DRY DENTIN. DenTASTIC is designed to work best in the moist dentin environment.
  3. Mix equal amounts of DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer A+B and paint five coats on dentin and enamel. Do not dry between coats. After the last coat, dry with a gentle stream of air for a few seconds. The surface should appear glossy; if not, apply additional coats until glossy surface appears.
  4. For light cure restorations use Unfilled Resin Base Part 1 only; for self-cure or dual cure restorations mix equal amounts Base Part 1 + Catalyst Part 2. Paint a thin coat of Unfilled Resin Bonding Agent over the glossy adhesive surface. Thin this layer with a gentle stream of air. It is not necessary to light cure this layer.
  5. Place restorative composite or resin cement.

Procedure 2

Bonded Porcelain Restorations and Porcelain Repairs

  1. For porcelain repairs, remove loose porcelain and contour as necessary. For all bonded porcelain restorations and porcelain repairs, etch porcelain with Pulpdent Porcelain Etch Gel for two minutes. Always place rubber dam for intraoral use. Rinse well and dry.
  2. Apply Pulpdent Silane to porcelain surface and dry with slow flow of clean air. Keep this surface uncontaminated and dry. For bonded porcelain restorations continue with step 3. For porcelain repairs continue with step 4.
  3. When bonding porcelain restorations to dentin/enamel, prepare tooth, etch,wash, remove excess water, and prime tooth with DenTASTIC A + B following instructions for Dentin/Enamel Bonding
    in Procedure 1, steps 1-3.
  4. For light cure restorations use Unfilled Resin Part 1 only; for self-cure or dual cure restorations mix equal amounts Parts 1 + 2. Paint a thin coat on the silanated porcelain, and when bonding to dentin/enamel, on glossy adhesive tooth surface also. Immediately thin with a gentle stream of air. When bonding porcelain veneers, inlays, onlays or crowns, do not cure Unfilled Resin.
  5. For porcelain repairs, place restorative composite. For bonded porcelain restorations, place resin cement on porcelain surface and carefully seat on prepared tooth.

Procedure 3

Repair of Porcelain Fractured From Metal Framework

  1. Remove loose porcelain with diamond bur and bevel porcelain edge. Sandblast or roughen metal surface. Wash and dry metal.
  2. Mix equal amounts of DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer C + B and paint two coats on metal and adjacent porcelain. Allow solvent to evaporate for ten seconds before drying with a gentle stream of air for 3-5 seconds.
  3. For light cure restorations use Unfilled Resin Base Part 1 only; for self-cure or dual cure restorations mix equal amounts Base Part 1 + Catalyst Part 2. Paint a thin layer of Unfilled Resin Bonding Agent over the adhesively prepared metal and adjacent porcelain surface, and thin this layer immediately with a gentle stream of air. It is not necessary to light cure this layer. An opaquer may be substituted for the unfilled Resin Bonding Agent, if required.
  4. Place restorative composite. Light cure, contour and polish.

Procedure 4

Bonding to Precious and Non-Precious Metals and Porcelain Fusing Alloys

  1. Sandblast metal surface or roughen with diamond bur. Tin plate sandblasted surface of high precious alloys for superior results. Rinse and dry.
  2. When bonding metal to dentin/enamel, prepare tooth, apply Etch-All for 20-30 seconds, wash and remove excess water (do not dry dentin), and prime tooth surface with DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer A + B following instructions for Dentin/Enamel Bonding in Procedure 1, steps 1-3.
  3. Mix equal amounts of DenTASTIC C + B. Paint two coats on metal surface. Let evaporate for ten seconds, then dry 3-5 seconds with a gentle stream of air.
  4. Mix equal parts dual cure Unfilled Resin Base Part 1 + Catalyst Part 2. Paint a thin layer on the adhesively prepared metal. When bonding to dentin/enamel, paint on the glossy tooth surface also. Thin immediately with a gentle stream of air. An opaquer may be substituted for the Unfilled Resin Bonding Agent, if required.
  5. When bonding metal to dentin/enamel, apply self-cure or dual cure resin cement to the unfilled resin treated surface of the metal restoration; quickly seat restoration, light cure to tack in place, and finish. When bonding composite to metal, place restorative composite, light cure and finish.

Procedure 5

Bonding Composite to Existing Amalgam

  1. Sandblast or roughen amalgam surface with diamond bur. Rinse and dry completely.
  2. Mix equal amounts of DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer C + B and paint two coats on the amalgam surface. Allow solvent to evaporate for ten seconds before gently air drying for 3-5 seconds.
  3. For light cure restorations use Unfilled Resin Base Part 1 only; for self-cure or dual cure restorations mix equal parts Base Part 1 + Catalyst Part 2. Apply a thin layer of unfilled Resin Bonding Agent over the adhesively prepared amalgam surface, and immediately thin this layer with a gentle stream of air. An opaquer may be substituted for the Unfilled resin Bonding Agent, if required.
  4. Place restorative composite. Light cure, contour and finish.

Procedure 6

Bonding New Amalgam to Tooth Structure

  1. Prepare the cavity conservatively. Prepare tooth, apply Etch-All for 20-30 seconds, wash and remove excess water (do not dry dentin), and prime tooth surface with DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer A + B following instructions for Dentin/Enamel Bonding in Procedure 1, steps 1-3.
  2. Begin trituration of amalgam.
  3. Apply a thin layer of self-cure or dual cure resin cement over the glossy adhesive dentin and enamel surface. DO NOT CURE THIS LAYER. Dual cure Unfilled Resin Base Part 1 + Catalyst Part 2 may be used instead of resin cement. However, research shows increased bond strengths with a partially filled resin cement which intermingles better with the amalgam and locks it into the tooth.
  4. Immediately condense the amalgam over the resin cement allowing excess cement to extrude from under the amalgam. Immediately remove excess resin cement before it sets while carving the amalgam to contour.

Procedure 7

Bonding New Amalgam To Existing Amalgam

  1. Sandblast or roughen amalgam surface with diamond bur. Rinse and dry completely.
  2. Mix equal amounts of DenTASTIC Adhesive Primer C + B and paint two coats on the amalgam surface. Allow solvent to evaporate for ten seconds before air drying for 3-5 seconds.
  3. Begin trituration of amalgam.
  4. Apply a thin layer of self-cure or dual cure resin cement over the adhesively prepared amalgam surface. DO NOT CURE THIS LAYER.
  5. Immediately condense the new amalgam over the resin cement allowing excess to extrude from under the amalgam. Immediately remove excess resin cement before it sets while carving the amalgam to contour.
