Zeno® Tec System Cementation

Cementation Instructions:

  • Zeno Tec crowns or bridges can be cemented with any conventional PFM cement (Glass Ionomer, Zinc Phosphate) or Composite Resin Cement (Panavia 21 or Unicem).
    NOTE: Cements with higher expansion rates (e.g., hybrid ionomer cements) must NOT be used.
  • Clean tooth surfaces. Tooth surface should not be dehydrated when cement is applied. Excessive drying concentrates protein debris and prevents efficient wetting of tooth surface.
  • Never use varnishes to protect tooth if polyacrylic acid cements are used (prevents chemical bonding to tooth structure).
  • Protect margins of cement with varnish after initial set (5 to 6 minutes). Saliva should not come into direct contact with unset cement.
