Ultradent 90-second Porcelain Etch is used to etch porcelain veneers, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and fractured dental porcelain. Ultradent 60-second Silane is used after hydrofluoric acid etching to prepare the surface for bonding resin.
Studies have demonstrated that Silane, when used with Porcelain Etch and a quality bonding resin, yields the highest bond strength to porcelain when compared with other porcelain bonding products.1 Both Porcelain Etch and Silane may be used intraorally or extraorally.
Porcelain Etch is a buffered, gelled hydrolic acid
designed specifically to etch fractured dental porcelain and etching porcelain
veneers, crowns, or inlays. It can also be used for etching porcelain crowns
before bonding orthodontic brackets. It is buffered and gelled to minimize any
irritation that could occur from the hydrofluoric acid vapor.
Porcelain Etch features a high visibility yellow hue so
you can see exactly where it is placed. It is also viscous enough to stay where
you place it.
Porcelain Etch and Silane are designed to be used
together when etching porcelain to provide high porcelain-to-resin bond
strengths. When used with a high-quality bonding resin, Porcelain Etch and
Silane can produce one of the highest porcelain-to-resin bond strengths
compared to other porcelain bonding products.
