Itena Totalcem (TR)

Hints and Tips

• Before applying TotalCem, the dentine must be dry, but not too dry
• For inlays and onlays, etching the enamel edges with phosphoric acid is recommended, in order to increase the bonding strength (while taking care of not spreading over onto the dentine)
• How to clean the root canal before applying TotalCem, in order to have an optimum cementation: Remove all residues of gutta percha with a calibrated drill. Pass over it with an ultrasonic probe. Rinse well and dry without over-drying. Apply TotalCem with an extra-fine intra-oral tip
• TotalCem has not been developed to adhere to enamel with no mechanical support (eg. dental brackets, veneers)
• During the setting of a ceramic inlay or a zircon crown, the following procedure can be followed to improve cementation: Apply hydrofluoric acid for 1 to 3 minutes, rinse thoroughly, dry, then apply silane (DentoBond Porcelain Fix)
