The multi-luting concept: a new approach to facilitate the adhesive luting of multiple indirect restorations

Abstract

Bonded indirect restorations can be difficult to lute in an accurate position due to the lack of preparation geometry. Furthermore, while the use of a rubberdam has been proven to be the best technique for providing the most efficient conditions for adhesive luting, its use often requires the use of secondary clamps, which do not allow the operator to lute more than two prosthetic pieces at the same time. The multi-luting concept is a pragmatic approach that of- fers the possibility to deliver several, if not all restorations, to be bonded at the same time, thus ensuring their correct positioning.
