The 3M ESPE RelyX U200 Self-Adhesive Dental Cement is a premium high-performance dental product designed for permanent cementation of restorations, providing excellent adhesion for substrates such as ceramics, composites, and metals. Its dual-cure formula ensures a secure bond while reducing sensitivities and handling moisture efficiently for lasting endurance and strong mechanical properties.
Innovative Self-Adhesive Dental Cement Delivery System
With the advanced Clicker™ dispensing method, this product allows smooth mixing and application. This technology offers flexible dosing with simultaneous base and catalyst application, minimizing waste and improving workflow. The cement's chemistry utilizes a phosphoric acid methacrylate monomer and specialized fillers for strong adhesion and unique neutralization behavior.
The mechanical strength of the cement is outstanding, with high flexural and compressive strength, notable elasticity, and hardness. It also offers impressive color stability and resistance to discoloration, enhancing the esthetic outcome of dental restorations. Compared to traditional multi-step systems, this Self-Adhesive Dental Cement simplifies bonding while maintaining superior performance.
3M ESPE RelyX U200 is expertly developed to serve diverse dental applications. It excels in bonding a variety of restorations, such as all-ceramic, composite, or metal inlays, onlays, crowns, bridges, posts, screws, and even dental implants. Its versatility makes it a reliable option in clinical environments and dental clinics alike.

Technical Information
- 3M ESPE RelyX U200 combines key elements for clinical success in a dental product:
High color stability for natural appearance
- It demonstrates minimal discoloration after exposure in coffee solution compared to peer products.
Proven long-lasting durability from unique material traits.
- The cement is acidic and hydrophilic when applied, becoming neutral and hydrophobic after setting. This reduces water uptake and increases stability. Thermocycling tests confirm the cement stays intact, unlike other formulas that crack over time.
Excellent bond strength
- 3M ESPE RelyX U200 bonds better to dentine and enamel than many self-adhesive alternatives, ensuring secure restorations with lasting results.
