Adhese Universal DC is a single-component, dual-cured adhesive for universal use. It is particularly suitable for bonding indirect restorations in situations where self-curing is required or desired.[1]
Adhese Universal DC offers the same bonding performance as Adhese Universal and additionally exhibits dual-curing properties. This makes it the optimally suitable adhesive for Variolink Esthetic in the cementation of all types of restorations and root canal posts[2].
