AllCem A2, Resin Cement, Dual-Cure Syringe

Clinical Overview

AllCem A2 is a dual‑cure, radiopaque resin cement presented in an automix dual‑body syringe containing base and catalyst pastes. Engineered by FGM, it enables adhesive cementation of indirect restorations, intraradicular posts, and core build‑ups—all in one product. Its balanced viscosity and reliable polymerization make it suitable even in areas inaccessible to curing light.

Key Benefits

• True dual‑cure action: Chemical cure in shaded zones and light cure where accessible, ensuring full polymerization.
• Balanced flow: Adequate viscosity suitable for both core build‑up sculpting and precise cementation.
• Radiopaque formulation: Ideal for radiographic verification of excess cement in subgingival areas.
• Universal adhesion: Bonds to enamel, dentin, ceramics, composites, metals, CAD/CAM materials, and posts.
• High mechanical resistance: Excellent compressive and bending strength for long‑term stability.
• Available shades: Available in A1, A2 (current shade), A3, and Opaque Pearl to meet aesthetic requirements.
• Auto‑mix convenience: Self‑mix tips ensure accurate delivery and minimal waste.

Kit Contents

• 1 × 5 g dual‑body automix syringe (base + catalyst) in shade A2
• 5 × self‑mixing applicator tips for consistent mixing and dispensing

Working & Setting Times

• Working time: Approximately 1 min 30 s post-mixing at room temperature.
• Light curing: ~40 s per accessible surface.
• Chemical cure: Final polymerization completes within ~10 minutes in shaded areas.

Indications

• Permanent cementation of indirect restorations—crowns, bridges, inlays/onlays, overlays (ceramic, metal, composite, metal‑ceramic).
• Cementation of intraradicular posts (fiberglass, carbon, quartz, metal).
• Adhesive core build‑ups for vital or non‑vital teeth using same material as post.

Instructions for Use

1. Ensure proper isolation (rubber dam or relative isolation); prepare tooth and restoration (etch, sandblast, silanate if indicated).
2. Select shade A2 and express cement directly or mix on pad or via auto‑mix tip for ~10 seconds to ensure homogeneity.
3. Apply cement inside restoration or canal; seat restoration or post, shaping core as needed.
4. Begin cleaning excess cement ~2 minutes after mixing; if done early, light‑cure margins to prevent oxygen inhibition.
5. Light‑cure each accessible surface for ~40 s; allow chemical set to complete (~10 min) in shaded zones.
6. Avoid rotary polishing until fully cured; advise patient to avoid biting for ~15 minutes post‑procedure.

Summary

AllCem A2 (Code 19277) is a high‑performance, automix dual‑cure resin cement ideal for definitive cementation, intraradicular post placement, and core build‑ups—all in one material. With its radiopacity, reliable dual curing, universal adhesion across substrates, and aesthetic shade selection, it delivers consistent and durable clinical outcomes.
