iCEM Self Adhesive
The easiest way of cementation
iCEM Self Adhesive is a dual-curing all-in-one luting composite with dependable adhesive strength. It is applied easily, quickly and in a convenient way and reduces the risk of post-operative sensitivity. This means: etching, priming, bonding, desensitising and cementing of indirect restorations in one step.
Benefits
One material - many advantages
- Etching, priming, bonding, desensitising and cementing in one step
- Dependable adhesive strength for durable restorations
- Reduction of post-operative hypersensitivities
- Flexible working time
- Wide range of indications
Indications
With iCEM Self Adhesive you cement metal and metal ceramic crowns and bridges
- all-ceramic crowns and bridges produced using Cerec® systems
- crowns and bridges using reinforced ceramics (e.g. zirconia)
- metal, ceramic and composite inlays and onlays
- metal, titanium and glass fiber posts
- nylon materials for splinting loose teeth
Applications
iCEM Self Adhesive is a dual-curing resin luting cement that stands for:
etching, priming, bonding, desensitising and cementation in just a single working step.
iCEM Self Adhesive is very convenient: it is applied directly into the indirect restoration or cavity using an Automix syringe. Additional mixing or application devices are not required. Excess can be easily removed even after a short polymerisation time. Its excellent stability means that it can be stored at room temperature. The cement has a desensitising effect that considerably reduces the risk of postoperative sensitivity. The main causes of postoperative sensitivity are automatically excluded: exposed dentinal tubuli, overdried dentine and over etching of the dentine.
No material-induced postoperative sensitivity was experienced by any of the patients treated in hands-on tests with iCEM Self Adhesive.

Science
iCEM Self Adhesive is an all-in-one resin luting cement that combines reliable bond strength and quick, easy, convenient application with a reduced risk of postoperative sensitivity. This means that indirect restorations can now be etched, primed, bonded, desensitised and cemented in just one step.
Numerous scientific studies have proven that the formula of iCEM Self Adhesive combines the easy handling of classical cements with the high-quality mechanical and aesthetic properties of resin luting cements.
