No bonding agents required. The latest generation of porcelain repair products uses First-Coat in place of silane. First-Coat is a solvent-free resin with strong bonds to ceramic and metal. Testing shows better results than silane.
All Surfaces, Fewer Steps, Save Time and Money • Eliminates metal and ceramic primers, silane and bonding agents. • Compatible with restorative composites. • No solvents, no modifiers, no mixing, no mess. • Can be cured with all curing lights. Multi-Functional Kit Contains:
EMBRACE FIRST-COAT Unique one-step resin primer bonds chemically and mechanically to prepared ceramic and metal. Contains no solvents.
EMBRACE SEAL-N-SHINE Polishes, penetrates and seals leaving a glaze-like finish on restored teeth.
EMBRACE ESTHETIC OPAQUER A thin film spreads smoothly and masks out discolored tooth and ceramic surfaces. Light cures in 20 seconds.
KOOL-DAM Heatless liquid dam protects soft tissue, teeth and restorative surfaces. Remains f;exible after curing.

Clinical Procedure
Fig. 1: Shows porcelain fractured off the crown on the lower left first bicuspid (#21).
Fig. 2:. Kool-Dam is placed on the the gingiva and light cured to protect the soft tissue.
Fig. 3: Porcelain Etch Gel is placed on the porcelain surface for one minute, removed with vacuum,
rinsed and dried. Abrade any exposed metal with a fine diamond.
Fig. 4: Apply First-Coat to etched porcelain and abraded metal surfaces.
Fig. 5: Light cure First-Coat.
Fig. 6: Embrace Opaquer, off-white shade, is placed on the exposed metal and light cured.
Fig. 7: The crown is incrementally restored with composite resin.
Fig. 8: After contouring and finishing the restoration, etch for 10 seconds and apply Seal-n-Shine, which seals the margins and provides a high lustre finish.
