Dia-X Bond Universal
A hydrophilic, single-component adhesive, Dia-X Bond Universal provides reliable bond strength in direct and indirect restorations with virtually no postop sensitivity
Every second matters in a fast-paced dental office, so being able to save even a fraction of precious time can be a real game changer. One way that Dr. Pearl Zadeh has accomplished this is by switching to Dia-X Bond Universal, which streamlines her bonding procedures into a single- bottle, single-step process. “I usually operate with a two-step system, but this was far quicker,” said Dr. Zadeh, a cosmetic dentist in Woodland Hills, CA, who has a passion for the biologic nature of dentistry. “Dia-X Bond Universal hit the mark with having the key things that clinicians are looking for. It is easy to use and delivers reliable, predictable, reproducible results.”

Dia-X Bond Universal is a stable, hydrophilic bonding agent that combines etching, primer, and adhesive into one bottle. It provides adhesion to a variety of surfaces and can be used with all etching techniques. Ideal for intraoral repairs, direct and indirect restorations, or as a desensitizer, Dia-X Bond Universal is formulated with 10-MDP monomers for excellent adhesion to metals such as zirconia and alumina.

—Pearl Zadeh, DDS
Dr. Zadeh said, “The fact that I felt comfortable using this in tandem with my everyday tools speaks volumes for Dia-X Bond Universal’s supreme prac-ticality.” Previously, she relied on more traditional bonding methods, such as applying a separate primer prior to bonding, so she was pleasantly surprisedto find a comparable product that was much more time efficient. The material also has a long shelf life, making it easier for dental practices to reduce clutter and the number of items that need to be stocked.
No Postop Sensitivity
While Dr. Zadeh’s patients typically experienced a minimal amount postop sensitivity, after she began using Dia-X Bond Universal, the issue completely vanished, which Dr. Zadeh said is “a huge plus.”
“Factors that I typically look for when trying new products are predictability, ease of use, reproducible results, and minimal to no postop sensitivity. Dia-X Bond Universal stood up to the test, and I was very pleased with the results,” she concluded.
