,PANAVIA Veneer LC joins the growing PANAVIA family of cements, designed to reduce the time and effort involved in veneer placement, ,
,It all began back in 1981, when Kuraray introduced us to the first adhesive monomer in dentistry—the MDP monomer—which proved extremely effective in adhering to enamel, dentin, and metal alloys. Two years later, the PANAVIA family of cements was born, offering dentists reliable adhesion in a variety of scenarios., ,While PANAVIA cements have evolved tremendously over the past 40 years, there’s always room to grow. Case in point is the latest addition, PANAVIA Veneer LC, a light-cure resin cement designed to take the stress out of veneer placement., ,“I like using PANAVIA Veneer LC very much,” said Dr. Craig Goldin, a Fellow in the American Academy of Cosmetic Dentistry who seats around 160 veneers every month at his practice in Troy, MI—from single teeth and 10-tooth cases to full-mouth rehabilitations. “It’s important that a veneer cement not be so thick that it prevents complete seating of the veneer,” he added. “PANAVIA Veneer LC is not too thick and not too runny, which makes it ideal for all types of veneers—from ultra-thin materials to more traditional types.”, ,Available in clear, universal, white, and brown shades with matching try-in pastes, PANAVIA Veneer LC offers a long working time of 160 seconds (or 200 seconds with PANAVIA V5 Tooth Primer) that allows for simultaneous placement of multiple veneers., ,PANAVIA Veneer LC debuts Kuraray’s newly developed spherical silica fillers that provide stability while still allowing for flow when the veneer is seated. It has a non-sticky consistency that ensures the cement won’t stick to the applicator tip, along with excellent color stability and high wear resistance., ,Easy cleanup is also a key feature, again thanks to its unique filler technology. “The cement cleanup is simplified by the perfect initial gel set it achieves after a short exposure to the curing light,” said Dr. Goldin. “This initial set is very easy to ‘push away’ and remove at preliminary cleanup prior to final curing, which makes final cleanup much easier.”, ,800.423.9762 | www.kuraray.us.com
