EaZy-Primer

Parkell has introduced its new EaZy-Primer, for use when cementing restorative ceramic materials including zirconia.

This priming agent is specifically formulated with an MDP monomer added to 4-META, allowing an enhanced bond to the silica-free, polycrystalline structure of zirconia. Further, EaZy-Primer works well with lithium disilicate and porcelain in conjunction with adhesive resin cements, according to the company.

With EaZy-Primer, you eliminate the need for the use of hydrofluoric acid and any of the risks that come with the acid such as discomfort if it comes in contact with soft tissue. EaZy-Primer is simple to use, too. After following the instructions for roughening the ceramic surface, all you need is one stroke. To maximize the effectiveness of EaZy-Primer, leave it on the surface until it evaporates on its own. When it dries you’ll notice it glistens, so unlike some other ceramic primers, you can see where you applied it, according to Parkell.

EaZy-Primer is the perfect adjunct to any resin cement resulting in strong bonds, beautiful esthetics and ceramic restorations that last, according to the company.
