Prepare area for porcelain repair
1. Using a medium grit diamond bur or microabrasion unit (see step B below
before microabrading) freshen the surfaces to be bonded. Roughen the surfaces
approximately 1-2mm past the composite resin restoration margin. Whenever
possible, long bevels will increase the adhesion of the repair.
2. If a previous repair is present, remove all old composite for a fresh porcelain
surface.
B. Isolate with OpalDam light cure gingival barrier if microabrading
1. Attach Black Micro tip to OpalDam syringe.
2. Completely rinse and dry teeth. Make sure the gingival third is thoroughly clean
and dry.
3. Express OpalDam resin to form gingival protection. Cover 4-6mm into the
vestibule, approximately 1.5-2mm thick (Fig. 1). Extend approximately 0.5mm
onto tooth. If excess resin flows onto surfaces to be prepared, partially light cure
area for 5 seconds and use a hand instrument to trim back excess. Where open
embrasure(s) exist, express resin through the opening onto lingual, filling the
embrasure space completely. This will protect interdental papilla and lingual
gingival tissue.
