We do not recommend using PREBOND with HI-X cement. HI-X is a very radiopaque cement, and the PREBOND can displace the cement thus reducing the visibility of the cement on X- rays. Using PREBOND with HI-X will not increase or decrease the bond strength, but placing PREBOND in the canal has the potential to thin out the HI-X and thus not be as easily visualized on the peri-apical X- ray. It is very important as well that HI-X cement fill the whole space without any unfilled resin around the post.
