Futurabond U, Dual-Cure Bond, 7th Gen, Single Dose

Clinical Overview

Futurabond U is a universal, single-dose bonding adhesive designed for predictable adhesion across a wide range of restorative materials. Its one-coat protocol streamlines clinical workflow and helps reduce technique sensitivity. The single-dose format delivers an optimal, pre-measured amount for one treatment, supporting consistent outcomes while improving hygiene and reducing waste.

Key Benefits

• One-coat efficiency: Achieves reliable adhesion with a single application layer to help minimize chairside steps.

• Fast clinical workflow: Short processing time (35 seconds) supports quicker restorative procedures.

• Universal compatibility: Suitable for use with all polymerizable composites, including light-curing, self-curing, and dual-curing methacrylate-based systems.

• Flexible etching protocols: Supports self-etch, selective-etch, or total-etch techniques based on clinical preference.

• No additional adhesive required: Simplifies inventory and reduces the need for multiple bonding systems.

• Consistent dosing, reduced errors: Single-dose packaging helps prevent over/under-dispensing and minimizes application variability.

• Hygienic single-use format: Designed for improved infection control, reduced spillage, and cleaner handling.

• Storage convenience: Does not require refrigeration, supporting easy operatory storage and readiness.

Kit Contents

• 50 single-dose units of Futurabond U Universal Adhesive

Working & Setting Times

• Processing time: 35 seconds (one-coat protocol).

• Setting: Polymerizes according to the requirements of the restorative material/system used (light-curing composite workflow).

Indications

• Direct restorations with all light-curing filling composites.

• Core build-ups with light-curing core reconstruction composites.

• Fixation with light-curing fixation composites.

• Use with all self-curing and dual-curing methacrylate-based composites.

• Treatment of hypersensitive cervical tooth areas (tooth necks).

• Protective varnish for glass ionomer cement restorations.

• Intraoral repairs of composite fillings.

• Intraoral repairs of ceramic veneers and all-ceramic restorations without an additional primer.

Instructions for Use

1. Prepare the tooth/restoration surface according to the planned etching mode (self-etch, selective-etch, or total-etch).

2. Open one single-dose unit and dispense the adhesive for immediate use.

3. Apply one uniform coat of Futurabond U to the prepared surface.

4. Actively scrub/brush the adhesive onto the surface to ensure complete wetting and penetration.

5. Air-thin gently to evaporate solvents and achieve a thin, even adhesive film.

6. Proceed with the restorative workflow using the selected light-curing, self-curing, or dual-curing methacrylate-based composite as indicated.

Summary

Futurabond U is a clinician-friendly universal adhesive engineered for speed, simplicity, and consistent results. With a single-coat protocol, multiple etching options, and a hygienic single-dose format, it supports efficient restorative workflows while helping reduce technique sensitivity. Ideal for direct and indirect restorations, hypersensitivity management, and intraoral repairs—without the need for an additional primer.
