Tooth-colored inlays: new cementation technique. 1997

Division of Restorative and Prosthodontic Sciences, New York University's College of Dentistry, USA.

A new technique for tooth-colored inlay cementation is introduced. Dual-cure fully filled restorative resin Sono-Cem (ESPE America, Norristown, PA) was used to cement tooth-colored restoration. A specially designed wooden tip in the gently vibrating Profin handpiece (Dentatus USA, New York) may be considered an excellent instrument for cementing porcelain and composite inlays with Sono-Cem cement. Also, a wide variety of diamond/tungsten plated abrasive Lamineer tips in a Profin Handpiece may be used for tooth preparation as well as for finishing restorations.
