OptiBond Solo Plus is 15% glass filled with the same 0.4 micron filler found in Kerr’s composite products. This composition helps it reinforce dentine tubules at a much greater depth than unfilled or nanofilled adhesive systems. The material’s unique dental bonding technology provides the highest level of protection against microleakage and high bond strengths to a variety of surfaces. Its durable chemical and micromechanical bonds help to decrease polymerisation shrinkage to ensure superior marginal integrity. Studies have found that ethanol-based adhesives, like Solo Plus, also produce significantly higher bond strength to dentine than acetone-based systems.
OptiBond Solo Plus is designed for both direct and indirect bonding applications. This includes composites, crowns, inlays, onlays, veneers, posts and core materials.
