Additional Information for Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement
Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement is a type of dental cement that is commonly used in dentistry. It falls under the supply class Dental Instruments, Equipment, and Supplies, which is part of the larger supply group Medical, Dental, and Veterinary Equipment and Supplies.
This type of cement is used for various dental applications, including:
1. Cementing crowns and bridges: Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement is often used to permanently bond crowns and bridges to natural teeth or dental implants. It provides a strong and durable bond that can withstand the forces of chewing and biting.
2. Luting orthodontic bands: Orthodontic bands are metal rings that are placed around teeth to anchor orthodontic appliances, such as braces. Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement is used to securely attach these bands to the teeth.
3. Filling cavities: In some cases, Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement can be used as a temporary filling material for small cavities. It provides a protective barrier and helps to prevent further decay until a permanent filling can be placed.

Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement is known for its excellent biocompatibility, meaning it is well-tolerated by the oral tissues and does not cause any adverse reactions. It also has good adhesive properties, allowing for a strong bond between the cement and the tooth or restoration.
Overall, Dental Zinc Polycarboxylate Cement is a versatile and commonly used dental material that plays a crucial role in various dental procedures.
