Gary Dworkin, DMD, on Dentsply Sirona’s Prime&Bond elect® Universal Dental Adhesive
I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine in 1982 and completed an Advanced Education in General Dentistry program in 1983. After graduation, I continued as an assistant professor in the Department of Restorative Dentistry, treating patients and teaching both preclinical and clinical students and residents in the faculty practice until 1996. Since then, I have been in private practice in Marlton, New Jersey, where I use Dentsply Sirona's Prime&Bond elect® Universal Dental Adhesive. I would recommend it to dentists who are looking to simplify their adhesion procedures.
1. Prime&Bond elect Universal Dental Adhesive gives you the flexibility to use the etching technique that is most appropriate for the situation.
2. Prime&Bond elect Universal Dental Adhesive's clinically proven PENTA (dipentaerythritol penta acrylate monophosphate) technology chases away water, enabling a strong bond with less sensitivity.
3. Prime&Bond elect Universal Dental Adhesive has low water uptake and provides consistent bond strength across varied moisture levels for a durable bond.
Does Prime&Bond elect simplify your practice? Yes. We no longer need multiple products for bonding because the Prime&Bond elect can be both self and light cured.
What do you like best about the product? The thin film thickness of the adhesive leaves no white lines at the margins when finishing resins.
What would you tell clinicians considering the product? It's easy to use and allows me to keep fewer bonding agents in the operatory.
