Shofu M.L. Primer is a dental adhesive primer utilized in restorative dentistry to enhance the bond strength between dental materials, such as composites and ceramics, and the tooth structure. The primer consists of a 10-Methacryloyloxydecyl Dihydrogen Phosphate (MDP) functional monomer, which forms a chemical bond with the hydroxyapatite in tooth structure.
Research indicates that the MDP monomer in Shofu M.L. Primer establishes a robust and enduring bond between the dental material and tooth structure, even in challenging conditions such as moisture or contamination. This primer is compatible with a broad range of restorative materials, offering versatility for diverse clinical scenarios. Typically, Shofu M.L. Primer is used in conjunction with a bonding agent or resin cement to create a comprehensive adhesive system for dental restorations. Application involves brushing the primer onto the tooth surface, and after drying, the dental material is bonded to the primed surface.

Specifications :
- Composition: Shofu M.L. Primer is composed of a 10-Methacryloyloxydecyl Dihydrogen Phosphate (MDP) functional monomer.
- Bonding mechanism: The MDP monomer in Shofu M.L. Primer chemically bonds to the hydroxyapatite in the tooth structure, creating a strong and durable bond between the dental material and tooth structure.
- Compatibility: Shofu M.L. Primer is compatible with a wide range of restorative materials, making it a versatile primer for various clinical situations.
- Bond strength: The MDP monomer in Shofu M.L. Primer has been shown to create a strong bond to the tooth structure, even in moist or contaminated environments.
- Application: Shofu M.L. Primer is applied to the tooth surface using an applicator brush and is typically used in combination with a bonding agent or resin cement to create a complete adhesive system for dental restorations.
- Drying time: Shofu M.L. Primer has a relatively short drying time, typically taking 10-15 seconds to dry.
- Shelf life: Shofu M.L. Primer has a shelf life of approximately 2 years when stored properly at room temperature.

Direction To Use :
- Clean and prepare the tooth surface: The tooth surface should be cleaned and prepared according to standard dental procedures, such as prophylaxis and etching with phosphoric acid.
- Apply the primer: Using an applicator brush, apply a thin layer of Shofu M.L. Primer to the tooth surface. Be sure to cover the entire surface that will be in contact with the dental material.
- Allow the primer to dry: Let the primer dry for 10-15 seconds. The surface should appear glossy when the primer is dry.
- Apply the bonding agent or resin cement: Once the primer is dry, apply the bonding agent or resin cement according to the manufacturer's instructions.
- Bond the dental material to the tooth surface: Place the dental material onto the primed and bonded tooth surface and cure according to the manufacturer's instructions.
