In this Technique Geek featured video, VOCO presents a how-to showcasing its dual-cure universal adhesive, Futurabond U. See how to complete a direct restoration using the dental adhesive with its single dose delivery system.

Futurabond U is a universal adhesive in a unit dose delivery that bonds to all resin based materials (light-, dual, self-cured) without the need of any additional activators or primers. The clinician can chose between total, selective and self-etch mode.

Additionally, Futurabond U can be used instead of a silane, metal or zirconia primer, desensitizer or as sealer under amalgam restorations and as a protective varnish over Glass Ionomer fillings.
