Calibra Ceram Adhesive Resin Cement

Test: Crown-pull Bond Strength Testing

• Ceramics were treated with 5% HF and silanated.
• All adhesives were used in self-etch mode.
• All cements were self-cured except for the group with optional light-curing through crown.
• Artificial aging: 10,000 thermocycling (5-55°C).

Test: 6-Minute Dentin Shear Bond Strength

• Calibra Ceram Cement was used with Prime&Bond active Adhesive; other materials with respective primers and adhesives according to manufacturers’ instructions.
  
• Prime&Bond active Adhesive was light cured while Scotchbond Universal and Multilink Primers A/B were not light cured.
• All cements were selfcured.
• Specimens were debonded after 6 minutes storage at 37°C and 100% Relative Humidity.

• All cements were light cured.
  
• Samples were stored in 37°C distilled water for 24hr (baseline) and 60°C distilled water for 8 weeks.

Fundamenta11y all types of CEREC Tessera glass ceramic restoration can be cemented fully adhesively. Inlays, onlays and partial crowns have to be cemented fully adhesively, that is using Prime&Bond active and Calibra Ceram. 

With an advanced crystal matrix structure - lithium disilicate + virgilite - CEREC Tessera CAD/CAM blocks are optimized to deliver uncompromising speed, strength and esthetics. 

Developed to make a difference at each step in the restorative process, each component of the Celtra Duo system was designed to perform ideally when used together. When used as a system with Prime&Bond active, the result is a remarkably strong and long-lasting bond you can rely on. 

A unique ultra-fine microstructure gives you the option to process Celtra Duo (ZLS) in your choice of two ways: Mill and Polish, or Mill and Fire. No other block provides this degree of workflow freedom and flexibility.
