Embrace™ WetBond™ Pit & Fissure Sealant

Home / Pulpdent-products / Embrace™ WetBond™ Pit & Fissure Sealant

Fluoride Releasing • Light Cure • Wet Bonding

Description:

Contains No Bisphenol A, No Bis-GMA, No BPA Derivatives

“It’s an absolutely sensational product!”

– John D. Doykos III, DMD, MSD

“Bonds under adverse conditions.”

– Reality 2006

“Virtually undetectable margins”

– Dental Advisor 2004; 21(8)

“[Sealants] looked the same as they did the day we placed them.”

– RDH 2006;26(7)

Embrace is the first pit and fissure sealant that bonds to the moist tooth. Research shows remarkable sealing ability and adaptation to tooth structure.1 The margins are undetectable, and the long-term success has been reported in the literature.2,3 Embrace releases and recharges phosphate and fluoride.

Moisture Tolerant – Bonds in a moist field

  • Wet-bonding resin technology
  • Tooth integrating. Seals against microleakage
  • Margin-free. No chipping. No staining
  • Fewer steps. Saves time and money
  • No drying or bonding agents required
  • Available in off-white or natural shade

Exceptional Marginal Adaptation

Embrace resins form an intimate association with the moist tooth. They are tooth integrating, creating a margin-free interface between the resin and the tooth that eliminates microleakage.

Margin-Integrity

Fig 1 SEM shows Embrace Pit & Fissure Sealant without bonding agent. Note the smooth margin and the extraordinary adaptation of the sealant to the tooth.
Fig 2 SEM shows leading competitor’s traditional pit and fissure sealant without bonding agent. Note the large gap between the sealant and the tooth.

    FAQs

    Q. Do I etch before placing Embrace Sealant?
    A. Always etch enamel. Products claiming they did not require enamel etching have been taken off the market. They did not work.

    Q. How wet do I leave the tooth before placing Embrace?
    A. Place Embrace on slightly moist tooth surfaces. Lightly dry the tooth with compressed air or a cotton pellet, but do not desiccate the tooth. The tooth should appear shiny or glossy. There should be no drops or pooling of water.

    Q. What should I do if I dry the tooth too much?
    A. You can apply a moist cotton pellet to the tooth.

    Q. What happens if I place Embrace on a dry tooth?
    A. Embrace is activated by moisture. It will seal a dry tooth, but it works even better in the presence of moisture.

    Q. Should I use a bonding agent with Embrace?
    A. It is not necessary to use a bonding agent. Clinical trials show unsurpassed retention without the use of bonding agents.

    Q. How many teeth does a kit seal?
    A. The 1.2 mL syringe seals 20-30 teeth. A kit if 4 x 1.2 mL syringes seals 80-120 teeth. The 3 mL syringe seals 50-75 teeth.

    Q. How long will Embrace stay on the teeth?
    A. Our clinical study has followed 334 teeth for 4-6 years. There was no pre-screening of children. Even children with poor hygiene and poor eating habits were included. Ten per cent of the sealants required repair or replacement over the 4-6 year period. Only three teeth had caries on the sealed occlusal surface. The teeth sealed with Embrace were 99% caries free.

    Q. How long do I light cure Embrace?
    A. Light cure time with a standard halogen light is 20 seconds. More powerful lights will cure faster.

    Q. Does Embrace cure with all lights?
    A. Yes.

    Q. Is Embrace fluoride releasing?
    A. Yes.
