Futurabond M+ versatility enables it to be used in self-, selective- or total-etch mode without any additional primers on vir- tually all substrates. Futurabond M+ achieves total-etch bond strength levels with all light-, self- and dual-cure resin-based composites, cements and core buildup ma- terials. With a dual-cured activator, Futurabond M+ will self-cure without any light activation, which, according to the company, offers a big advan- tage for endodontic applications such as post cementation where it avoids the pooling ef- fect, a problem with light-cured adhesives. Fu- turabond M+ also adheres well to metal, zirconia and ceramic, making extra primers unnecessary. Futurabond M+ needs only one coat and takes 35 sec- onds from start to finish. Its low film thickness of 9 mi- crons makes bonding margins invisible (i.e. no “halo” effect) and prevents pooling problems. Additionally the material does not need to be refrigerated. Further Futur- Single-bottle adhesive self- cures with no light activation abond M+ benefits include its indication as a desensitizer for use under amalgam restorations or on hypersensitive tooth necks, as a protective varnish for glass ionomers as well as an intraoral repair of ceramic restorations.

According to the company, Cal- cicur is an ideal material for direct pulp capping and after pulpotomies as well as indirect pulp-capping in cases of deep decay. Containing 45 percent calcium hy- droxide, Calcicur provides high pH values (>12.5) for an anti-microbial effect and the promotion of secondary dentin forma- tion. Calcicur’s high pH values also allow for the indication of temporary root ca- nal fillings, the disinfection of root canals and the lining of cavities to prevent expo- sure to acid media when using cements. Calcicur’s endo tip makes the root canal treatment easy, minimizing time and ef- fort. Calcicur can be applied immediately and underneath any lining or restorative material and is available in a ready-to-use 2.5g syringe that prevents moisture loss.
