Jen-Unibond

Description

ADVANTAGES

Jen-Unibond possesses the following outstanding features:

• contains bioactive glass and silicon dioxide nanoparticles as a filler

• remineralization action with prolonged release of fluoride, calcium and phosphate ions

• simple and fast application technique

• versatility – will bond to dentin and enamel margins

• compatible with all light-cured restorative materials and cements

• long shelf-life with no need for refrigeration

• economical in use

• outstanding biocompatibility. Jen-Unibond does not contain acetone or other pulp irritating compounds.

• Jen-Unibond possesses the very high bond values of any single-component resin bonding system. Ashesive force of Jen Unibond to the etched dentin after 24 hour is 17-40 MPa (depending on laboratory results)

• contains the natural resins providing an elastic quality to all compositions, which create a hybrid layer that is able to flex. A flexible hybrid layer reduces the risk of microleakage by creating the layer that is not rigid and resistant to fracture; the natural resins contain also the natural surfactants, which allow easier penetration of resins into the dentin tubules

• special co-polymerized solvent in combination with very small amount of ethyl alcohol carrier facilitates the problem of quick evaporation of unwanted solvent, allowing simultaneously the excellent penetration of the resin into the dentinal tubule structure

INDICATIONS

• a bonding agent for composite (including flowable) restorations

• adhesive cavity varnish under amalgam restorations

• protective varnish for hypersensitive tooth areas

INSTRUCTION

Etching

Apply etching gel by brushing it into the dentin. Extend the application on the enamel margins. Leave on for 15 – 20 seconds.

If a relatively large area of the enamel is involved in the restoration, and in clinical situations where achieving maximum bonding strength to enamel is critical to good retention, the enamel should be thoroughly treated with the etching gel for 20 seconds.
Rinse well, then dry lightly with a stream of air. Do not desiccate the dentin structure.

Dentin-Enamel Primer/Bonding Agent

Apply primer/bonding agent with a brush in a manner similar to the application of the cavity varnish. Make sure the dentin is well wetted. Just placing primer over the dentin may not be enough. Apply one or two consecutive coats of Jen-Unibond to etched enamel and dentin. Do not rinse off. Keep the area dry; avoid saliva contamination. Light cure for 10 seconds.

Follow with the application of the light cured restorative material or cement and cure thoroughly.

Special Hints:

When restoring Class V cervical lesions, adjacent enamel margins should be beveled and etched in a conventional manner. Prior to etching, dentin and adjacent enamel should be cleaned with an oil-free pumice/water slurry, rinsed and lightly dried.

Treating of hypersensitive cervical areas

Clean cervical area of hypersensitive tooth with prophylaxis paste and rubber cup. Remove prophylaxis paste with water spray. Dry cleaned area with air free of oil or water contamination. Avoid desiccating the dentin. Apply Jen-Unibond as described for direct restorations.
