Description:

The 3M™ RelyX™ Universal Resin Cement Refill A1 (56972) is a high-performance dual-cure adhesive resin cement specifically designed for the permanent cementation of indirect restorations like crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, veneers, and implant-supported restorations. Its adaptable formulation accommodates both adhesive and self-adhesive bonding techniques, allowing clinicians to select the method that best fits the clinical situation and substrate. Engineered to provide excellent bond strength, this resin cement guarantees robust retention of restorations, thereby improving their longevity and clinical success. The cement boasts superior color stability and natural fluorescence that mimic the translucency of natural teeth, leading to restorations with remarkable aesthetic integration. The material's wear resistance contributes to its durability, helping to preserve restoration integrity even under the forces of occlusion over time. Thanks to its dual-cure properties, the cement reliably sets in areas where light curing might prove challenging, ensuring consistent polymerization. The product is offered as an easy-to-handle two-component syringe system that simplifies mixing and application. The refill kit contains an 8.5-gram syringe of A1 shade cement, along with 15 micro mixing tips, 5 elongation tips for larger restorations, and instructions for use. These components aid in smooth, controlled placement, reducing waste and enhancing workflow efficiency. This resin cement is particularly well-suited for bonding glass ceramics, resin nano ceramics, and hybrid ceramic restorations, making it a favored option for practitioners seeking dependable adhesion with excellent aesthetic results. In clinical applications, 3M™ RelyX™ Universal facilitates the cementation of a diversity of restorations including all-ceramic and composite inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, veneers, Maryland bridges, implant abutments, endodontic posts, and partial crowns. Its reliable performance and versatility have established it as a trusted cement for achieving enduring, predictable outcomes in restorative dentistry.
