Clinical Overview
Ambar Bond is a two‑step conventional adhesive system designed for total‑etch bonding to enamel and dentin. This light‑curing formula combines primer and bonding resin in a single bottle, simplifying application while ensuring robust adhesion. It includes MDP monomer for chemical bonding and treated silica nanoparticles for film stability, even in moist conditions.
Key Benefits
- Simplified workflow: Primer and adhesive integrated in one bottle for efficient total‑etch application.
- MDP‑enhanced adhesion: Chemical bonding to tooth structure supports high immediate and long‑term bond strength.
- Silica nanoparticle stability: Creates a durable adhesive film resistant to moisture and degradation.
- Reliable curing: Light‑cured interface provides consistent polymerization with low film thickness.
- Aesthetic & safe: Transparent, BPA‑free formulation that does not alter restoration color.
Kit Contents
- 1 × 4 mL or 6 mL bottle of Ambar Bond adhesive (combined primer + bonding resin)
- Dispensing cap or micro‑applicator tip included
Working & Setting Times
- Application time: Apply adhesive by rubbing for ~10 seconds per layer.
- Drying: Air‑blow for ~10 seconds to evaporate solvent and thin the film.
- Curing: Light‑cure for 10 seconds per tooth surface; extend to 20 seconds for intracanal or thick layers.
Indications
- Bonding of all classes of direct composite restorations (Class I–V).
- Adhesive cementation of indirect restorations—crowns, veneers, inlays/onlays, posts (metal, ceramic, fiber).
- Repair procedures on existing composites or ceramic surfaces.
- Use in moist dentin situations thanks to APS-enhanced polymerization stability.
Instructions for Use
- Prepare tooth surface and perform total‑etch with 37% phosphoric acid (etch enamel ~15–30s, dentin ~15s). Rinse thoroughly and leave dentin moist—not desiccated.
- Apply a small amount of Ambar Bond; rub into surface for ~10 seconds, then reapply and rub for another ~10 seconds.
- Air‑thin adhesive with a steady air stream for ~10 seconds to form a uniform, thin film.
- Light‑cure adhesive for ~10 seconds per surface. In deeper or endodontic areas, extend cure time to ~20 seconds.
- Proceed with composite placement, resin cementation, or repair protocol as per restorative system instructions.
Summary
Ambar Bond is a clinician‑friendly, total‑etch light‑cure adhesive system that streamlines restorative bonding steps. Its MDP chemistry ensures durable adhesion, while silica nanoparticles enhance moisture resistance. The single‑bottle design, coupled with efficient curing times and extended performance in moist environments, makes it ideal for predictable composite restorations and bonding procedures.
