OptiBond XTR (Kerr Self-Etch, Light-Cure Universal Adhesive) ... I am very cautious about switching and recommending a new bonding agent. There are credible reviews sanctioning the approval for Optibond XTR as a credible adhesive system. This is an impressive system that provides universal compatibility

The Clear Shot delivers clearer images with less corrupt data. It also stabilizes the field for quicker image taking. The use of the Isolation wings not only retract the cheek and tongue, it also traps the light and concentrates it where it is needed the most.
