Oral Care – Self Curing Adhesive – 5 gr x 5 gr Kit – Mixing Pads & Spatulas Included

This product is outstanding and professional, if used correctly. I had a gold crown that kept falling off after multiple dentist visits. They were using UV cure adhesive which they assured me was the proper way. 3 visits in 2 weeks, I then decided to do it myself. It has now been 3 months with this product. This can also be used for chip and cavity repair as long as no novacaine is required for drilling. The cured product looks exactly like tooth material. As a chemist myself, I will say the product takes a bit of focus and meticulousness to use properly and acheive desired results.

If you follow the directions and practice a couple times you can make a pretty realistic tooth repair with this stuff. People in reviews have complained about the small amount, but it's more than enough for about 20 midsize chip repairs. One thing I found from trial and error was that using a 60/40 Catalyst/Base ratio mix seems to work best. On my third attempt I was able to fix a badly broken and deadened (dark) front tooth that used to make me look remedial. Up close, it's a little grainy, but from 2+ feet away it looks totally natural and real. I smile with confidence now, for the first time in over 20 years. Couple of tips: Work fast. You get one good shot at forming the tooth, and just a few seconds to fine tune it, so prepare to make a couple practice runs. You may want to do two practice runs with a 40/60 Catalyst/Base mix because it will be softer and easier to remove. Then do the 3rd attempt with 60/40. Keep a flosser/pick handy to "reinstall" the gaps between teeth, but move inward toward your mouth as you remove the flosser tom avoid peeling back the chip repair. Interestingly, you can apply a layer over an existing cured attempt if there are pits or something.

Worked a miracle

I really wish I hadn't purchased this. First of all, it contains something with Bidphenol A Diglycidyl Methacrylate, which it says in the instructions in ingredients. Secondly, it did not stay affixed and so the small amount I used I ended up swallowing several hours later, which worries me because Bidphenol A Diglycidyl Methacrylate sounds like a molecule that includes BPA, unless I am mistaken. It was not easy to use. The instructions were very minimal. The appearance wasn't great and the color didn't match. It lasted about 3 hours before breaking off. It really didn't have any use and was a waste of money. I was really hoping to save money, but this stressed me out and didn't work.

Used this to repair chips on existing composite bonding my dentist put in (I have canine extensions - the tooth on the right side of the photo is the one I repaired; it broke off at roughly 2/3 way down, and you can barely tell I repaired it at all). So far it seems sturdy: I grind at night so if the repair is not strong (previously I was using a resin-based luting cement cut the job), it doesn't usually survive a single night. My only complaint is that the silica filler particles are on the large side - probably because this kit is meant to be strong enough for posterior repairs - unfortunately this makes it very hard to polish. The dental polishing kit I have simply couldn't do it, at I covered the surface with a thin layer of resin-based cement that has finer filler particles and are better for polishing. The overall result was good.

Great product will definitely be ordering again!

So far so good. I wouldnt skimp on the catalyst. I put a little bit more but mixed it in my hand . Then use a dental pick to put it on spots. If I use the fat end stirrer it does not aim it wear you want it ok. I had taken a bit of my saliva to lube my finger when to move it depending on your work. Maybe catalyst would have been better? I used a hair dryer on very low heat . Not close to the face. So far looks good. I will upload pictures. It may take you 3 times. But once you do it you will get the hang of it ok. I'm 66 and I did it.

Okay, not the best but it will work when you are in a jam. The thing is you have to mix the products and apply it to the tooth very quickly before it hardens. I will say that if you apply the product correctly, it will last a while. My biggest issue is the small amount of product for the price.
