Clinical Overview
AllCem Core A3 is a radiopaque, high‑viscosity dual‑cure resin cement in a 6 g automix syringe (base + catalyst), developed for adhesive cementation of intraradicular posts, crown/bridge luting, and core build‑up procedures. Prepared to cure chemically where light cannot reach and by light where accessible, delivering consistent polymerization and mechanical integrity.
Key Benefits
- 3‑in‑1 versatility: Supports post cementation, core build‑up, and crown luting with one material system.
- Balanced viscosity: Ensures controlled flow for luting and sculpting core without slumping.
- Reliable dual-cure: Chemical setting in low-light zones, light curing near margins accelerates workflow.
- Radiopaque formula: Visible on X‑rays to detect residual cement in subgingival regions.
- Universal adhesion: Bonds to enamel, dentin, ceramics, composites, metals, and CAD/CAM substrates.
- High mechanical strength: Excellent compression and bending resistance for long-term stability.
- Precise automix delivery: Self-mixing tips ensure accurate ratio, bubble‑free mix, and minimal waste.
Kit Contents
- 1 × 6 g dual‑body automix syringe (base + catalyst) in shade A3
- 8 × self‑mixing applicator tips for precise, bubble‑free application.
Working & Setting Times
- Working time: Approximately 1 minute 30 seconds at room temperature after mixing begins.
- Light curing: 40 seconds per accessible surface to position and stabilize the restoration.
- Chemical cure: Complete set occurs in ~6–7 minutes in shaded areas.
Indications
- Cementation of intraradicular posts (fiberglass, ceramic, quartz, metal).
- Permanent adhesive cementation of crowns, bridges, inlays/onlays, overlays (ceramic, metal‑ceramic, composite).
- Core build‑up in vital or endodontically treated teeth.
Instructions for Use
- Isolate the operative field (preferably rubber dam or relative isolation); prepare tooth and restoration—etch, silanate or prime as per substrate protocol.
- Select shade A3; attach the automix tip and dispense cement—mix thoroughly for ~10 seconds on pad or via tip.
- Apply a fine layer of cement inside canal or restoration; seat restoration or post, allowing overflow to form core if indicated.
- Begin excess cement cleanup approximately 2 minutes after mixing; if cleaned earlier, light‑cure margins to avoid oxygen‑inhibited layer.
- Light‑cure accessible surfaces for ~40 seconds; allow chemical cure to complete in shaded zones (~6–7 minutes).
- Avoid rotary polishing until full polymerization; advise patient to avoid biting on restored tooth for ~15 minutes post-procedure.
Summary
AllCem Core A3 (Code 19282) is a powerful, dual-cure automix resin cement system in shade A3, combining core build‑up strength, post cementation suitability, and crown luting reliability in a single clinician‑ready product. Its universal adhesion, radiopacity, balanced viscosity, and dependable dual-curing mechanism make it a valuable choice for streamlined restorative workflows.
