3. RESTORATIVE TECHNIQUE:
a) Prepare tooth using standard techniques. Extensive mechanical retention is not necessary. For pulp capping, use Apacal Art / Cal LC as a base or liner.

b) Wash and dry the prepared tooth structure but DO NOT DESICCATE. CRYSTA DENTIN
CONDITIONER is recommended to remove the smear layer.
c) Mix the required amount of cement. Working time is 1min. 30 seconds at 23°C (73.4°F). Higher temperatures will shorten working time.
