Adhese Universal is a single component light-cured adhesive for direct and indirect bonding procedures. Adhese Universal is compatible with all etching techniques. An integrated desensitising effect prevents fluid movement in the dentine tubules and thus minimises the risk of postoperative sensitivity.

Wetting and infiltration of dentine tubules under moist and wet conditions occurs by contact with the hydrophilic solvents and methacrylate monomers contained in the adhesive. In addition, the acidic compounds in the dentine precipitate as insoluble calcium salts, facilitating the mechanical blocking and sealing of the dentine tubules. This integrated 'desensitising effect' prevents fluid movement in the dentine tubules and minimises the risk of microleakage and postoperative sensitivity.

Adhese Universal provides effective mechanical blocking and sealing of the dentine tubules under dry and wet conditions. It results in a homogeneous adhesive film with defined resin tags that reliably seal the dentine. Fluid movement in the tubules and thus postoperative sensitivity associated with that movement are prevented.
