Comprising one of the most sophisticated technologies available in 3M, our dental adhesives are designed to address the unique needs of the dental industry. Over 25 years of dental science have led to the development of Single Bond Universal Adhesive, which incorporates core adhesive, filler and silane technology together with Vitrebond™ copolymer technology to produce a reliable, simple adhesive that has virtually no post-op sensitivity1. Single Bond Universal Adhesive has over 300 peer-reviewed studies and pieces of evidence2 to date, making it the most scientifically backed universal adhesive available.

Five-year trial: Evidence that 3M™ Single Bond Universal is a versatile adhesive you can trust.
This 5-year clinical study documents the performance of Single Bond Universal: 96% retention rate with the total-etch technique, and an 87% retention rate with self-etching. Simply put - you can use Single Bond Universal adhesive for both direct and indirect applications - without the need for a separate etch or primer.
That means you can reduce your adhesive inventory and simplify your process without compromising the quality of the bond.
