Ivoclar Monobond Plus is a universal, one-component primer used to promote a strong and durable chemical bond between luting composites and all indirect restorative materials. It simplifies the bonding protocol by containing three different functional monomers in a single solution.
Features
Monobond Plus is formulated with a combination of three key functional monomers that enable it to bond with different types of dental materials:
Silane methacrylate: For use on glass-ceramics, such as IPS Empress and lithium disilicate.
Phosphoric acid methacrylate: For use on zirconium oxide, aluminum oxide, and non-precious metals.
Sulfide methacrylate: For use on precious metals, including gold alloys.
This multi-component formula allows a single product to achieve reliable adhesion to various surfaces, streamlining the adhesive cementation process. The application procedure is straightforward: apply the primer, allow it to react for 60 seconds, and then disperse the excess.
Specification
Monobond Plus is indicated for conditioning the surface of all common indirect restorative materials before adhesive cementation with a luting composite. This includes:
Glass and oxide ceramics: Such as zirconium oxide and glass-ceramic restorations.
Metals: Both precious and non-precious alloys.
Composites: Indirect composite restorations.
Fiber-reinforced composites: Used for various restorative applications.
It is most effective when used with Ivoclar Vivadent's coordinated products, such as the Variolink and Multilink luting composites.

Ivoclar Monobond N is a single-component, universal primer for conditioning the bonding surfaces of indirect dental restorations. It promotes a strong and durable chemical bond between a luting composite and all common restorative materials.
Features
Universal composition: The primer uses a combination of functional methacrylates—silane, phosphoric acid, and sulfide—to adhere to different materials.
Single-component: Monobond N is a pre-mixed solution, which simplifies the bonding process.
Efficient: It features a universal 60-second reaction time, after which any excess is dispersed with an air stream before applying the luting composite.
Specification
Monobond N is indicated for conditioning the surface of all common indirect restorative materials before cementation with a luting composite. These materials include:
Glass and oxide ceramics: This includes materials such as zirconia.
Metal: Used for metallic restorations and alloys.
Composite resin: The primer facilitates bonding to composite materials.
Fiber-reinforced composites (FRC): It is also effective for restorations made with FRC.

Ivoclar Monobond Etch & Prime is a single-component ceramic primer that combines the etching and silanating process for glass-ceramic restorations into a single, time-saving step. It eliminates the need for hydrofluoric acid, making the procedure safer and less technique-sensitive.
Features
Single-component primer: The product combines the functions of etching and silane priming in one bottle, streamlining the adhesive cementation process for glass-ceramics.
Hydrofluoric acid-free: Instead of toxic hydrofluoric acid, it uses ammonium polyfluoride to create a microretentive surface on the ceramic, making the procedure significantly safer for clinicians.
Cleansing action: It actively removes saliva proteins and silicone contamination from the ceramic surface, ensuring a clean and optimal bonding surface.
Strong, durable bond: The primer creates a powerful and long-lasting chemical bond between the glass-ceramic and the luting composite, which has been shown to be comparable to traditional methods.
Prevents over-etching: The self-etching formula prevents the risk of over-etching, which can compromise the ceramic microstructure and weaken the final restoration.
Specification
Monobond Etch & Prime is indicated for the extraoral pre-treatment of glass-ceramic surfaces before adhesive luting with a resin cement. It is specifically recommended for the following Ivoclar glass-ceramic materials, among others:
IPS e.max CAD
IPS e.max Press
IPS Empress CAD
It is used as a surface conditioner for these restorations in adhesive cementation procedures to ensure a strong and durable bond. The product can also be used to re-condition a glass-ceramic restoration that has become contaminated after a previous lab conditioning.

Ivoclar Heliobond is a light-curing, single-component bonding agent that enhances the enamel etching procedure for use with all light-curing restorative dental materials. It is known for creating an optimal marginal seal between the tooth and composite material.
Features
Enhanced enamel etching: Optimizes the tooth's enamel surface for improved adhesion.
Optimal marginal seal: Reduces the risk of post-operative sensitivity and recurrent decay by creating a tight seal between the restoration and the tooth.
Compatibility: Works effectively with all light-curing restorative materials, such as composite resins.
Easy application: Can be applied in a thin, controlled layer with a brush or ball instrument.
Specification
Enamel bonding: As an adhesive for restorations limited to the enamel.
Dentin bonding: Used in conjunction with other components, such as Syntac, for bonding to dentin.
Repair work: Functions as a bonding layer for repairing existing light-cured composite, crown, and bridge restorations.
Tooth jewelry cementation: Can be used for the cementation of tooth jewelry like Skyce.
