Kuraray America, Inc. released CLEARFIL™ SE Protect on January 1, 2010

CLEARFIL™ SE Protect, formally known as CLEARFIL™ SE Protect, is a self-etch bonding agent with both antibacterial cavity cleansing and fluoride releasing properties. CLEARFIL™ SE Protect eliminates the cost and extra step of applying a separate cavity cleanser to kill any bacteria that remain in cavities, especially "minimal intervention" cavities. Furthermore, it is biologically safe because the functional monomer, MDPB, will not leak after light curing. CLEARFIL™ SE Protect retains the outstanding characteristics of CLEARFIL™ SE Bond: low post-op sensitivity, excellent bond strength for both enamel and dentin, application speed and ease of use. In fact, CLEARFIL™ SE Protect shows even higher long-term bonding durability than CLEARFIL™ SE Bond.

Self-Adhesive Resin Cement “CLEARFIL™ SA CEMENT”

Kuraray, manufacturer of many innovative products, which includes world first total-etching & self-etching products, Panavia and CLEARFIL™ SE BOND, released another epoch-making product again. CLEARFIL™ SA CEMENT, like most self-adhesive cement, is fluoride releasing, easier and faster to use than other types of resin cements. But it goes steps further and solves two very significant problems faced with resin cements: significantly easier removal of excess cement and true bonding to zirconia based restorations. And CLEARFIL™ SA CEMENT delivers consistent high & durable bond strengths regardless of whether the bond is moist or dry, with virtually no risk of postoperative sensitivity. Available in shade Universal ( A2 ) & White, CLEARFIL™ SA CEMENT is indicated for cementation of crowns, bridges, inlays, and onlays made of conventional porcelain, ceramic, hybrid ceramics, composite resin or metal, and cementation of metal cores, resin cores, metal or glass fiber posts.
