DSI T-bond Temp Cement
T-Bond is a zinc-based temporary cement with eugenol that offers reliable bonding strength while promoting patient comfort during restorative treatments.
One significant advantage of T-Bond is its ability to form strong and long-lasting bonds with various dental materials, including ceramics, metals, and composite resins. This feature makes it an excellent choice not only for routine restorations but also for more complex procedures like implant-supported prosthetics. Another notable benefit of T-Bond is its low solubility rate, meaning it does not disintegrate easily when exposed to oral fluids or saliva. As a result, restorations held down by T-Bond tend to last longer than those secured using other types of adhesives.
T-Bond is easy to manipulate and has a low film thickness, which facilitates accurate seating of restorations. Additionally, T-Bond shows antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory effects due to the eugenol component in its formulation. The material soothes sensitive teeth and offers pain relief.
Despite its high retention and durability, it is surprisingly easy to remove when needed without causing any trauma, damage or alteration to the prepared surface for final cementation. This not only saves time but also reduces patient discomfort during the procedure and promotes better long-term oral health outcomes.
With its ability to provide a strong seal while still being gentle on tooth structures and tissues - topped with the added advantage of being easily removable – T-Bond is an ideal material to get work done efficiently without compromising comfort or quality.
To address the issue of potential adverse reactions and irritation caused by eugenol in patients who are sensitive or allergic to eugenol, DSI developed T-Bond NE - eugenol-free cement. This formulation maintains the desirable properties of traditional T-Bond without risking any negative side effects associated with eugenol use.
