Ultradent ProductsPeak-ZM zirconia and metal primer is designed to provide high adhesion between zirconia and metal surfaces and the luting material. Thanks to the chemistry containing the MDP monomer, Peak-ZM primer can increase bond strengths five times compared to using a resin cement alone, the company reports. Also, Ultradent says, clinicians can feel confident in their zirconia and metal restorations with Peak-ZM primer.

Peak-ZM zirconia and metal primer is a single component surface treatment that enhances bond values when applied to zirconia, alumina, and metal/alloys. It contains a blend of polymers, including MDP, which produces a chemical bond that significantly increases adhesion between resin-based material and the bonding surface of the restoration. Also, its chemistry includes in-house, custom-synthesized monomers designed to help enhance its bond strength.

Peak-ZM primer is available in 4-ml bottles (300 uses) and 1.2-ml syringes (100 uses). For more information, call (800) 552-5512 or visit ultradent.com.
