New Temporary Luting Cements – Adhesor TC and Adhesor TC NE!

The latest contributions to the SpofaDental a.s. cement family are Adhesor® TC and Adhesor® TC NE, both launched onto the market in 2010.

Adhesor® TC is a zinc oxide-eugenol temporary fixation cement with outstanding properties which provide great comfort to both dentists and patients. It has high bond strength and has high stress capacity. Low solubility in the fluids of the oral cavity prevents gaps between the stump and the denture. Eugenol reduces the sensitivity of the prepared vital teeth. Adhesor TC also allows very easy removal of the temporary denture and the material is also easily removed from teeth and the denture.

Adhesor® TC NE is a temporary fixation cement identical to Adhesor TC; however, it does not contain eugenol which thah is why Adhesor TC NE version does not inhibit the polymerisation of composite cements and does not soften any acrylic temporary crowns and bridges. Otherwise it has the same flow and fixation properties as Adhesor TC and its greatest advantage is its universal application.
