Clinical Overview
3M™ Adper™ Single Bond 2 Refill is a light-cured, total-etch, single-component dental adhesive supplied in a convenient 6 g vial. Designed for clinicians who already use the Adper™ bonding system, this refill delivers the same trusted high bond strength, nanofiller-enhanced stability, and moisture-tolerant performance. It supports consistent, long-lasting adhesion in both routine and advanced restorative procedures.
Key Benefits
- Reliable high bond strength: Ensures durable adhesion to enamel and dentin for long-term restorative success.
- Nanofiller technology: Stable dispersion improves bond integrity without requiring shaking.
- Moisture-tolerant formulation: Water/ethanol solvent system maintains performance in slightly moist dentin conditions.
- Reduced post-operative sensitivity: Optimized formulation enhances patient comfort.
- Efficient refill format: Ideal for practices already using the system—reduces waste and improves cost efficiency.
- Easy dispensing bottle: Allows precise application and visual control of remaining material.
- Consistent performance: Maintains shear bond strength over time for predictable outcomes.
