The Ultradent Porcelain Etch is a specialized dental product designed to enhance the adhesion and bonding strength of porcelain veneers, crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays, and fractured dental porcelain. This product serves a crucial role in dental procedures involving porcelain surfaces, as it aids in the preparation of these surfaces for effective bonding.

Containing a viscous 9% hydrofluoric acid solution, the Porcelain Etch provides a controlled and precise etching process. Its easy application and placement ensure that dental professionals can effectively etch porcelain surfaces without causing any unwanted damage. One significant advantage of the Porcelain Etch is its non-staining property, which ensures that composite materials or resin cement used alongside the porcelain will not be marred by unsightly discoloration.

In conjunction with the Porcelain Etch, the Ultradent 60-second Silane solution plays a vital role in the bonding process. Applied after hydrofluoric acid etching, the Silane solution readies the porcelain surface for the subsequent resin bonding. Its effectiveness is supported by studies that demonstrate its ability to produce the highest bond strength between porcelain and resin when compared to other porcelain bonding products. This single-component solution simplifies the bonding process, streamlining the procedure for dental practitioners.

The benefits of the Ultradent Porcelain Etch and Silane aren't limited to traditional porcelain materials alone; they are also suitable for use with lithium disilicate (IPS e.max®2) restorations. This versatility expands the scope of application for these products, ensuring compatibility with modern dental materials.
