ProTec CEM: hybrid ionomer cement

Sept. 1, 1998
ProTec CEM, a new, self-curing, fluoride-releasing, hybrid ionomer cement, is available from Ivoclar Vivadent. ProTec CEM combines the easy handling, easy excess removal, and fluoride release of conventional cements with the solubility and low expansion characteristics of composite cements. The result offers greater esthetic options for conventional cementation (of retentive preparations) in the dentist`s daily practice, including porcelain fused-to-metal, posts, and retentively prepared Targis
