Bioactive Luting Cement for Pediatric Restorations
NuSmile BioCem® Universal BioActive Cement is a radiopaque, dual-cure luting cement specifically designed for pediatric dentistry. BioCem enables hydroxyapatite formation and integration into dentin within 24 hours. Provides a superior bond between dentin and zirconia crowns or ReVIVE resin-ceramic reinforced composite crowns, regardless of the crown manufacturer. BioCem couples advanced bioactivity with low water sorption/water solubility to prevent washout and bacterial infiltration.
Why Clinicians Choose BioCem
Clinicians choose BioCem® for its superior retention, high phosphate content, and ability to contribute to hydroxyapatite formation for a stronger seal. Its bioactive ion release helps maintain a natural pH, while its high viscosity and low film thickness support easy handling and accurate crown seating. With scientifically proven minimal microleakage and versatile dual-cure technology, including flash-cure capabilities, BioCem provides a durable and reliable seal for pediatric restorations.
Hydroxyapatite Formation
BioCem promotes hydroxyapatite formation at the tooth-cement interface within 24 hours, supporting integration with dentin and long-term retention.
Bioactive Ion Release
Releases calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions while maintaining a chemistry designed to work in harmony with the oral environment.
Optimized Handling and Versatility
BioCem® combines high viscosity with low film thickness for controlled application and accurate crown seating, making it a versatile option for zirconia, ReVIVE, and other crown types.
Low Water Sorption & Solubility
Scientifically proven to minimize microleakage, resist washout, and help reduce bacterial infiltration through a strong, resilient bond.
Engineered for Clinical Performance
BioCem’s formulation is designed to support predictable cementation through a combination of advanced chemistry, handling characteristics, and material stability in the oral environment. It is especially well suited for restorations where light-cure activation supports optimal performance, including zirconia and ReVIVE crowns.
BioCem’s low film thickness allows the crown to fully seat. BioCem’s high viscosity is perfect straight out of the syringe to hold preformed crowns in the right position.
Designed for Controlled, Predictable Crown Cementation
BioCem’s dual-cure workflow is designed to support efficient placement while maintaining stability, cleanup control, and strong restorative outcomes across zirconia, pre-veneered, resin-ceramic and stainless steel crowns.
Choosing the Right Cement for Your Procedure
NuSmile offers two advanced cement solutions for pediatric restorative care. Choosing the right one depends on whether your priority is bioactive integration and long-term sealing performance or fast, efficient everyday cementation.
Designed for Bioactive, Light-Assisted Performance
- Promotes hydroxyapatite formation at the tooth-cement interface
- Releases calcium, phosphate, and fluoride ions
- Recommended for zirconia (ZR) and ReVIVE restorations where light-cure activation is effective
- Low sorption and solubility help resist washout and microleakage
- Ideal when bioactivity, sealing performance, and light-assisted curing are the priority
Designed for Reliable Everyday Use
- Dual-cure RMGI workflow with familiar glass ionomer handling
- Strong immediate bond for predictable cementation across all crown types, including SSCs
- Fast tack cure for efficient excess cement removal
- Less technique-sensitive than many traditional cement systems
- Ideal when speed, versatility, and predictable everyday performance are the priority
