TheraCem

The Cement for Retentive Preps

Contains MDP with an Amazingly High Bond Strength to Zirconia

• All in one (etch, bond, cement)
• In a class of its own – with the ‘Thera’ technology to regenerate tooth structure
• It has an alkaline pH. All others have an acidic pH
• Friendly to pulp
• Kills bacteria
• Releases calcium ions & fluoride

Theracem steps

• Try in
• ZirClean
• TheraCem
• Place restoration

TheraCem is a dual-cured, calcium and fluoride-releasing, self-adhesive resin cement indicated for luting crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays and posts (prefabricated metal/non-metal/fibre posts).

On Zirconia - No adhesive or zirconia primer necessary

On PFM - Bonds directly to the metal substrate

On Porcelain - If Theracem is used on porcelain – use a silane.

On Posts & RCT - TheraCem is opaque making it excellent for blocking out posts, root canal treated teeth and dark stump.

If the dentist wants less opaque – use Duo-Link, but bond it.

THE POWER IS IN THE KEY INGREDIENT MDP - ONLY 2 CEMENTS CURRENTLY CONTAIN MDP

TheraCem contains sufficient MDP so it bonds to Zirconia without any additional primers.

Panavia contains a lesser amount of MDP and Clinicians should use Z Prime Plus Zirconia Primer to achieve suitable bond strength to Zirconia

While Rely X Unicem, Maxcem, and Fuji Plus are ‘All-In-One-Products’ they are not in the same class as Theracem.

Only TheraCem has calcium ions prevent secondary caries and is non-corrosive to implants.
