    Added radiopacity.

    Radiolucency under an existing restoration can lead to misdiagnosis – and potentially invasive overtreatment. Scotchbond Universal Plus Adhesive is the first universal adhesive with dentine-like radiopacity, helping to overcome this issue.

    Bonds & seals caries-affected dentin.

    Scotchbond Universal Plus Adhesive gives you confidence when performing minimally invasive preparations because it has the same high bond strength to caries-affected dentin as to sound dentine.

    In addition to the excellent quality of restoration margins, it seals caries-affected dentine by forming a well-defined, void-free hybrid layer.

    Available in unit dose or vial delivery, Scotchbond Universal Plus Adhesive is a true one-bottle system, with no need for a separate primer or silane. Plus, it offers full dual and self-cure compatibility without a separate dual-cure activator.
