It is made in the largest laboratorym A in the world devoted to the manufacture of dental filling mate-■ M rials. ^L^^ In that laboratory, surrounded by an elaborate equipment andall necessary appliances, every cement made has been analyzedand tested and its physical properties determined, and the claims which wemake for this material are based on facts and are given without exaggeration. FOR SETTING FACINGS, CROWNS, BRIDGES AND INLAYS it ispeculiarly adapted, because of its tenacity, its strength, its fineness of powder,its hydraulic properties and its resistance to the action of saliva.

context_page_description: A luting agent is an application of a dental cement connecting the underlying tooth structure to a fixed prosthesis. To lute means to glue two different structures together. There are two major purposes of luting agents in dentistry – to secure a cast restoration in fixed prosthodontics, and to keep orthodontic bands and appliances in situ.
  In a complex restoration procedure, the selection of an appropriate luting agent is crucial to its long-term success. In addition to preventing the fixed prosthesis from dislodging, it is also a seal, preventing bacteria from penetrating the tooth-restoration interface.
  Zinc phosphate is the oldest material available and has been used in dentistry for more than a century. The introduction of adhesive resin systems made a wide range of dental materials available as luting agents. The choice of luting agent is dependent on clinical factors including dental occlusion, tooth preparation, adequate moisture control, core material, supporting tooth structure, tooth location, etc. Research has determined that no single luting agent is ideal for all applications.
