In restorative dentistry, choosing the right cement can make all the difference to clinical outcomes, ease of workflow and long-term success. RelyX Universal Resin Cement has emerged as one of the standout solutions for dental professionals looking to combine versatility, simplicity and reliable performance.
One of the biggest advantages of RelyX Universal Resin Cement is its dual-mode chemistry. This means it functions both as a self-adhesive cement and as an adhesive cement in combination with a universal adhesive like Scotchbond Universal Plus Adhesive. This means you can use the same product across a wide variety of restorative indications without switching systems or sacrificing bond strength.
This enables clinicians to be able to rely on a single cement for crowns, bridges, inlays/onlays, veneers, posts, and more, whether the case requires straightforward cementation or enhanced adhesion. This versatility can help reduce stock levels, streamline processes and save chair time.
Many voices in dentistry have observed how RelyX Universal was developed to meet the needs of modern practices. The product was formulated with feedback from clinicians to combine long-term results with simplified workflows, reducing unnecessary steps without compromising performance.
Specialist prosthodontists have emphasised that while adhesive bonding is essential for certain materials and situations, it doesn’t have to be overly complex. RelyX Universal Resin Cement’s ability to provide strong self-adhesive retention makes it easier to use in many standard scenarios, supporting both efficiency and predictable outcomes.

Independent evaluations and expert reviews consistently highlight the impressive bond strength of RelyX Universal Resin Cement. It has been shown to deliver excellent self-adhesive bond strength to dentine and other substrates when used without a separate adhesive or primer but also perform strongly when paired with a universal adhesive for more demanding cases.
This balance of strong self-adhesion and enhanced bonding capacity makes the cement suitable across a broad spectrum of materials, including ceramics, metals, composites and zirconia.
Beyond chemical performance, RelyX Universal Resin Cement is engineered for clinical ease-of-use. Its self-sealing automix syringe design helps minimise waste and supports hygienic storage between uses. The included micro mixing tips enable precise application and reduce material excess, which can helps save both time and resources.
Easy excess clean-up is another practical advantage. With RelyX, dentists can remove stray cement quickly before final curing, which can contribute to smoother procedures and cleaner restorations.
