Embrace First-Coat is a unique, light-cure resin primer that replaces silane and metal adhesives and is placed on porcelain and metal surfaces.

WATERTOWN, Mass.-- Pulpdent Corporation, manufacturer of Embrace WetBond products, is now offering Embrace First-Coat Primer individually as a refill item.

First-Coat is a key component of the Embrace Restoration & PFM Repair Kit. The repair kit, which is used to repair fractured porcelain restorations and can be used intraorally, has received extremely high ratings from the world's most respected independent testing organizations.

Embrace First-Coat is a unique, light-cure resin primer that replaces Silane and metal adhesives and is placed on both the porcelain and metal surfaces.

It contains no solvents and represents the first significant improvement in porcelain repair materials in two decades. It can be cured with any curing light.

Testing indicates that the adhesive bond strength between First-Coat and
porcelain is stronger than the cohesive strength of porcelain itself.

First-Coat obsoletes the use of silane as a porcelain primer. It solves the difficult chemistry problem created by bonding an organic resin to an inorganic ceramic surface.

First-Coat is available in a 1.2-ml syringe, and includes 10 flocked
applicator tips.
