3M Single Bond Universal Adhesive L-Pop 100-Pack 41279

Clinical Overview

3M™ Single Bond Universal Adhesive L-Pop 100-Pack is a light-cured, single-component universal adhesive designed to simplify bonding procedures across all etching techniques—total-etch, self-etch, and selective-etch. Delivered in convenient single-use L-Pop units, it ensures consistent dosing, reduces cross-contamination, and enhances workflow efficiency while providing reliable adhesion to a wide range of dental substrates.

Key Benefits

• Universal compatibility: Suitable for all etching techniques and bonds to enamel, dentin, ceramics, metals, and composites.
• Consistent unit-dose delivery: L-Pop format ensures precise application and minimizes waste.
• Strong and durable adhesion: Provides predictable bond strength across multiple clinical indications.
• Integrated primer functionality: Eliminates the need for separate silane or metal primers in most cases.
• Low post-operative sensitivity: Seals dentin effectively for improved patient comfort.
• Moisture-tolerant formulation: Performs reliably in slightly moist dentin conditions.
• Dual- and self-cure compatible: Works seamlessly with all resin cements and restorative systems.
• Efficient workflow: Simplifies procedures and supports high-volume clinical environments.

Kit Contents

• 100 × L-Pop unit-dose adhesives

Working & Setting Times

• Working: Active application with rubbing for approximately 20 seconds.
• Setting: Light-cure in approximately 10 seconds depending on curing light intensity.

Indications

• Direct composite and compomer restorations
• Core build-ups and resin cement bonding
• Bonding of fissure sealants
• Dentin sealing and desensitization
• Repair of composite, ceramic, and metal restorations
• Cementation of indirect restorations (crowns, bridges, veneers)
• Bonding to glass ceramics without separate silane in most cases

Instructions for Use

1. Select the preferred etching technique (self-etch, total-etch, or selective enamel etch).
2. If required, etch enamel/dentin, rinse thoroughly, and gently dry (leave dentin moist).
3. Activate the L-Pop unit and apply adhesive to the prepared surface.
4. Rub adhesive for approximately 20 seconds to ensure proper infiltration.
5. Gently air-thin to evaporate solvent and achieve a uniform film.
6. Light-cure for approximately 10 seconds.
7. Proceed with restorative or cementation procedure.
