Directions for Use

Fields of Application:

• Porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns and bridges on hard dental tissue and cores rebuilt with amalgam, composite, or glass ionomer cements.
• Metal inlays, onlays, crowns, and bridges.
• Posts.
• Full porcelain crowns manufactured from silicate-only, alumina-only, or zirconia-only cores.
• Orthodontic appliances.

Method of Use:

• Ensure that the enamel, dentine, and cavity surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and dried.
• Clean cores before luting (e.g., pumice and water), rinse thoroughly, and dry with a gentle air stream or cotton pellets. Avoid over-drying.
• Shake the powder and the liquid bottle thoroughly for at least 3 seconds before dispensing.
• Ensure a working temperature of 15°C – 23°C.
• Mix one level spoon of powder with two drops of liquid. Place both components onto a glass mixing plate or a suitable mixing block. Hold the liquid bottle vertically when dispensing.
• Mix the powder and liquid into a homogeneous paste using an abrasion-resistant spatula.

Follow these recommended times:

• Mixing time: 30 seconds.
• Working time: 2 – 4 minutes at room temperature.
• Setting time (at 37°C): 3 – 5 minutes.

Application – Luting of Restorative Pieces:

• Apply the material onto the preparation and/or into the restorative piece using a suitable instrument (e.g., spatula or brush).
• Place the piece in situ and let it set under slight pressure.
• Meron Plus has a working time of approximately 2 – 4 minutes at room temperature and sets in the mouth in 3 – 5 minutes. Be aware that higher temperatures shorten the working time, while lower temperatures prolong it.
• After around 4 minutes, the material reaches a gel-like consistency, making it easy to remove any excess with a probe.

Application – Luting of Posts:

• Apply Meron Plus only to the post.
• Seat the post in the root canal and make it vibrate slightly while seating to avoid air bubbles.
• Do not apply the cement into the canal with a lentulo as this may speed up the setting excessively.

Indications and Precautions:

• Avoid contact with substances like eugenol or thymol that inhibit the setting of Meron Plus.
• Remove all residues of varnishes and other substances from the hard substance before final luting.
• Ensure sufficient residual dentine thickness to prevent pulp irritation. Protect the pulp or build up the core if necessary.
• Rinse instruments immediately with cold water before the cement residues set.
• After removing orthodontic bands, gently and quickly remove cement residues with an ultrasonic scaler.
• Avoid contact with soft tissue.
• Meron Plus contains specific ingredients; do not use it if there are known hypersensitivities to these components.
• In case of eye contact, rinse thoroughly with water and seek help from an eye specialist.

Storage Information:

• Close the containers of powder and liquid tightly immediately after use.
• Store in dry conditions at 4°C – 23°C.
• Do not use after the expiry date.
