Placement Procedure

• Coat the bonding surfaces of the restoration
  (crown or bridge) or the preparation (inlay or
  onlay) with 1mm of cement. DO NOT OVERFILL.
• Begin seating within 30 seconds after mixing is
  completed.

64
Placement Procedure

• Seat the restoration by gently rocking it into
  place with finger pressure.
• Confirm occlusion and proper seating.
• Maintain pressure to assure complete seating
  until clean-up begins.
