Strong adhesion – long-lasting bond

Versatile application

Multilink N is characterized by its versatile application possibilities:

One product system covers a multitude of indications.

The universal luting composite system Multilink® N

is suitable for the adhesive cementation of metal,
metal-ceramic, all-ceramic and composite resin restorations.

Due to the fast and efficient self-curing mechanism, Multilink N is highly recommended in
cases where cementation with light-activated materials is not possible as a result of restricted
or hampered access to light (e.g. oxide ceramics, opaque glass-ceramics or alloys).

Proven products for a long-lasting bond

Quality restorations deserve the best possible placement. Quality cementation results are produced
with co-ordinated, scientifically proven products:

Quarter Technique
Depending on the curing light used, excess can
be light-activated in 1 to 3 seconds per quarter
surface (mesio-oral, disto-oral, mesio-buccal,
disto-buccal).

1st quarter surface

Within this time, the material acquires a gel-like

consistency, which makes it easy to remove with
a scaler. Multilink N impresses with excellent
properties.
