Eliminating post-operative sensitivity is high on every dentist’s list. With Adper™ Easy Bond Self-Etch Adhesive the etching and penetration of resin monomers into the demineralized dentin and enamel are carried out simultaneously in one step, thus preserving the collagen structure. This means you are not dependent on maintaining a moist bonding environment, which is a requirement of 5th generation, one-bottle adhesives.

Less than 0.5% post-operative sensitivity.
In a field evaluation of more than 5,000 restorations placed using Adper Easy Bond adhesive, less than 0.5% reported post-operative sensitivity.* Positive outcomes like this are reason enough to try Adper Easy Bond adhesive on your next restoration.
