FYI

Tissue goo is a cleanser, not an astringent. It's got EDTA in it.

I wish companies would advertise a product for what it is. I would assume from the way it is advertised that is does have hemostatic properties

Ferric sulfate, used in Viscostat, adheres very tenaciously to prepared tooth structure. I rinse it off very well and when the tooth "looks clean", I rinse some more. I do not use Viscostat in the anterior region, the risk of emergence of stain showing through an all ceramic margin or even a composite for that matter, is too great.

John I was thinking about Anchor and Simplicity for seating veneers. If you were seating six anteriors all at once doesn't the Anchor set up a bit too quickly and maybe give you a problem with clean up. I've used UltraBond Quik which is a dual cure but it has a long working time.
The other thing is, Anchor is just in one tooth colored shade at the moment. So if you had a translucent veneer and wanted to vary the color a bit you've only got one option with Anchor. Right?

Use a light cure only cement for veneers. Rely-x Veneer cement is a good one.

Eric is right. For veneers, a light-activated material is likely your best choice, but I must say that I am thinking more about that. At this time I am recommending RelyX Veneer from 3M.

I'll be glad when Translucent/Clear Anchor comes out. Hmmm, maybe Orlando?!?

I like Ultradent better.

The website indicates Anchor is ok for veneers unlike the above posts say to probably avoid it.
Which is it?
Anyone used it for veneers yet?

Thank you.

[john kanca]

I have used it for anterior crowns, bj. but not for veneers- not yet. Just be sure you have control of the final value and chroma by adding a little of the WO to the A2. We are working on an A2O.

john,
what about the old "amine" worry with dark margins and color shifting over time? isn't dual cure pretty much contraindicated in the anterior, based on this worry?
thanks,
d

Some of us have been using things like Choice, RelyX ARC and Insure in their dual-cure modes and have not seen the amine discoloration that plagues these kinds of materials in the past. Still, I would stay with a light-activated material for veneers for now.

Also, because of their inherent opacity, crowns like Impulse/Eris are less affected by color than more translucent types of ceramic.
