What is Special About OptiBond Solo Plus?
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.
What is OptiBond Solo Plus Used for?
OptiBond Solo Plus is designed for both direct and indirect bonding applications. This includes composites, crowns, inlays, onlays, veneers, posts and core materials.
