Peak Universal Bond™: All the functionality you need

When it comes to dental bonding agents, Peak Universal Bond from Ultradent is a reliable and versatile solution. With its innovative formulation and carefully crafted chemistry, this adhesive goes above and beyond to ensure reliable and durable restorations.

What is it that makes Peak Universal Bond the ideal bonding agent?

Strength

Peak Universal Bond with PackagingPeak Universal Bond is a strong bonding agent, able to stand up to the challenges of dental bonding and minimise the risk of failed restorations. Part of what makes Peak Universal so strong is its unique and custom-synthesised phosphate monomer, Dymetech™, which enables long-lasting restorations with superior bond strengths, while also effectively reducing tubule gaps and penetrating all etched tooth microscopic areas.

Dr. Fischer, founder, president and CEO of Ultradent Products, explained why Peak Universal Bond’s strength is so important: “We always had the commitment to keep driving until we had the highest strength bonding agent, because for our minimally invasive techniques, for reaching our vision of bringing more affordable dentistry to a larger cross section of humanity, there needed to be the capability of more affordable, direct-placed dentistry. For that to occur, a high strength adhesive would be paramount.”

Versatility

Having to stock different bonding solutions for different indications can leave your cupboards cluttered and your workflows confusing. Peak Universal Bond is a fantastic all in one solution, suited for use in direct and indirect bonding on a wide range of materials, including dentin, enamel, composite, porcelain, metal, and zirconia.

Peak Universal Bond offers a universal adhesive compatible with both self-etch and total-etch techniques.

Easy placement

Peak Universal Bond strikes the perfect balance, its 7.5% filler composition results in a carefully tuned viscosity, ensuring minimal film thickness (just two microns). This adhesive is designed to stay precisely where it's applied, while also making it effortless to air thin and effectively reach the microscopic areas of the tooth for a proper bond.

Moreover, Peak Universal Bond cures quickly and easily, even in challenging-to-reach areas where a clinician's curing light may struggle. With this level of reliability, dentists can confidently trust that restorations using Peak Universal Bond adhesive will withstand the test of time.

Comfort

We know the discomfort post-operative sensitivity can cause for our patients. With Peak Universal Bond's unique chemistry, you can bid farewell to this concern. Its hydrophilic solvents penetrate the tiniest details of the tooth during application, becoming hydrophobic after air-thinning and polymerisation. The result? Virtually no post-op sensitivity, and happy patients mean a happy dental practice.

Reliability

How does Peak Universal Bond ensure that bonds last? The 0.2% chlorhexidine formula works tirelessly to preserve long-term bond strengths.

It prevents the degradation of collagen in the dentin or hybrid layer caused by matrix metalloproteinases (MMP). With this added strength, your restorations will stand the test of time, leaving our patients smiling confidently for years to come.
