Where

Any dental practice.

When

Across all direct and indirect restorations including intraoral repairs, cementation, sealing, and across all substrates, providing a strong bond and quick application.

Why

Futurabond U is the first dual-cure universal adhesive in a single-dose delivery system that does not require an additional primer or activator. It may be used in self-, selective-, and total-etch techniques and works with all light-, dual-, and self-cure composites. Additionally, the SingleDose system from VOCO America eliminates contamination concerns.

The How*

Futurabond U uses silicon dioxide nanoparticles to create a cross-link of resin components and enhance their film-building properties. The adhesive wets the exposed collagen fibers and microretentive etching pattern on the enamel. Then the powerful nanoparticles reinforce the hybrid layer, producing a stronger bond from a single-coat application.
