Voco's New Cement Meron Plus AC
Resin-modified glass ionomer luting cement
As a radiopaque resin-modified
glass ionomer luting cement, Meron Plus AC combines the advantages of a
conventional glass ionomer luting cement with those of a resin-based cement. It
offers easy handling, exceptional compressive strength, high bond strengths and
is suited for the attachment of all types of restorations - even for
cementation of root posts and orthodontic appliances. Additionally, it is indicated for use with
metal, ceramics and is especially well-suited for high strength zirconium oxide
ceramics.
Meron Plus AC is thixotropic,
has very good wettability and has a working time of approximately 2 minutes at
room temperature. Setting intraorally
after 3 - 5 minutes, Meron Plus AC takes on a gel-like consistency around the 4
minute mark, which allows any excess material to be removed easily using a
probe.
Meron Plus AC is now
available in VOCO’s innovative and easy-to-use application capsule which
eliminates the need for an activator. Simply place the colored base on a firm
surface and activate by pushing down. The liquid piston is pressed into the
capsule and the liquid is emptied into the powder chamber. This is followed by a
10-second trituration process in a capsule mixer and insertion into the
applicator. Uniform application is ensured after raising the application tip.
