Clinical Evaluation Protocol During a 24-month period, 636 restorations were cemented with 3M™ RelyX™ Universal Resin Cement, in both adhesive- and self-adhesive mode. 452 restorations were one- to two- years old and availble for recall. For restorations requiring a bonding agent, 3M™ Scotchbond™ Universal Plus Adhesive was used. The restorations included mostly crowns (anterior and posterior) and veneers, followed by implant crowns, bridges, and a few fiber posts (Figure 1). The vast majority were silica-based ceramic (lithium disilicate) and zirconia restorations (Figure 2).
