SEcure®:
A revolutionary adhesive resin cement system that delivers outstanding bond strength
and clinically proven advanced sealing properties.
Parkell’s SEcure® is an easy-to-use 4-META-based adhesive resin cement that generates strong bonds to tooth structure without separate etching by way of its unique self-etch primer. SEcure’s advanced sealing properties effectively seal and protect the tooth against marginal leakage and subsequent sensitivity, caries, and pulpal involvement.
Simply brush the SEcure Primer onto the cut enamel and dentin. Keep it wet for 10-20 seconds, and gently air blow the surface. Then express SEcure directly from the auto-mix tip into the restoration and seat it. You can then either light cure it (about 40 seconds) or wait for it to self cure (about 2 ½ minutes). That’s all. If you’re in a hurry, you can zap the margins with your light for a second or two and start clean-up almost immediately. Dual-cure SEcure is completely reliable even when your light can’t reach particular areas, such as under PFM crowns and down post holes.
Superior bond strength.
SEcure shows significantly higher tensile bond strength to tooth structure than most other simplified adhesives.

Protects and desensitizes the tooth.
To demonstrate SEcure’s advanced sealing properties, researchers cemented resin restorations on teeth using the most popular self-adhesive cements and SEcure. The teeth were then mechanically loaded 400,000 times, and subjected to 5,000 thermocycles.
Finally, the teeth were soaked in blue dye for 24 hours and then sectioned longitudinally at two locations to reveal leakage. The difference between SEcure and the other adhesives was dramatic.
In addition to providing a virtually impermeable shield against marginal leakage, SEcure also has the advantage of preventing post-op sensitivity, too. Its 4-META chemistry gives the cement extraordinary sealing capabilities, to protect the tooth from external stimuli and bacteria.
Attention Brush&Bond® users!
If you already use Brush&Bond®, there’s no need to order the SEcure Primer. SEcure also works beautifully with Brush&Bond. Just order a refill resin cement syringe and you’re ready to go!
