Convenience and hav- ing just one procedure to remem- ber are perhaps the main reasons many dentists nowadays prefer to use universal bonding systems. Based on the experience gained with its previous adhesives such as G-Bond and G-ænial Bond, den- tal materials manufacturer GC (Booth 80) has introduced a one- component light-cured universal adhesive on the market that is said to achieve outstanding perform- ance with all etching modes and in all situations. A result of years of research and development, G-Premio Bond is the universal bonding solution for dentists who believe in zero compromises, according to the company.Itiscompatiblewithself- etch, selective etch and total etch techniques, and performs equally well in direct bonding cases, re- pair situations and hypersensi- tivity treatment. G-Premio BOND shows excellent, long-lasting bond strength on both enamel and dentin, regardless of the etching mode. In fact in GC’s own research on enamel and dentin in self- etch mode, G-Premio BOND had the highest shear bond strengthvaluesafterthermocy- clingamongallproductstested. A unique combination of three functional monomers (4-MET, MDP and MDTP), notably ex- cluding HEMA, en- sures excellent stability and bond strength not just to tooth tissue but to all indi- rect substrates, including composites, precious and non-precious metals, zirconia and alumina for all repair cases. When combined with Ceramic Primer II, G-Premio BOND will cre- ate a durable adhesion to any type of glass ceramics. The adhesive behaves like water, despite the presence of fillers and photo-initiators that help achieve a strong bonding layer. With G-Premio BOND’s optimal wetta- bility and penetration and a drying procedure that takes just five seconds at maximum air pres- sure, an extremely thin film thick- nessof3µmcanbeachieved.These characteristics and the absence of HEMA guarantee the preservation of the bonding layer over time, en- suring durable aesthetics without discolouration. Fearsofpatientdiscomfortfrom post-op sensitiv- ity are also elimi- nated in self-etch and selective etch modes. The tubules are opened only slightly, while in total-etch mode the tubules are fully in- filtrated thanks to the product’s ability to efficiently penetrate the dentin. Errorscausedbytheoperatorare almost impossible with G-Premio BOND, according to GC, owing to a simplified procedure with low technique sensitivity. That means forinstancethatthebondstrength is not compromised if the waiting time is cut short, drying guidelines are self-explanatory and light- curing is very efficient thanks to the high photo-initiator content. GC further added a visual control to drying & light-curing, with the liquid displaying a yellowish colour before curing and a perfect invisibility after curing. G-Premio BOND helps to save precious time with a 25-second procedure in self-etch and 50 sec- ondsinselectiveandtotal-etch.This is especially useful in situations where isolation is not optimal or in cases involving children. G-Premio BOND has a working timeofsevenminutesinitsded- icated dish, plenty of time for a stress-free application. Dentists will enjoy the hassle-free versa- tility of a one-bottle, easy-to-use solution, according to GC. The bottle design is supposed to pro- tect the liquid from the heat of the fingers and prevents solvent evapo- ration.Wasteisalsominimisedowing to a unique silicon bottle cover and a thin nozzle that releases up to 300smalldropsperbottle.
