Features and Benefits
- Paste system for rapid, stress-free mixing and dose management.
- Exceptional radio-opacity for straightforward detection.
- Excellent dimensional stability and low solubility for a sturdy, safe seal.
- Quality flow characteristics to flow into, and cover lateral canals.
- Biologically inactive
- No staining of teeth
- Radiopaque
- Outstanding dimensional stability and low solubility for a sturdy, safe seal
- The thermoplastic ability allows easy removal
- Exceptionally fast
- Lasting obturation of root canals of teeth together with root canal points
- It could be used with gutta-percha, silver, and metal points.
Directions for use:
1. Paste from both tubes is mixed in a 1:1 ratio on a glass plate or a mixing pad until the homogenously tinted mass is formed.
2. For the Gutta Master Technique:
a. Select gutta-percha point/reamer of the proper size to wet the canal.
b. Inject in small portions into the prepared sterile and dry canal using the Lentulo carrier at the low rotation speed to avoid the appearance of the air bubbles.
c. Withdraw slowly still running on the low speed.
d. ”Dip” sterile and dry master point in the paste and insert to the canal with a slow pumping motion.
3. At the Standard Gutta-percha or other root canal points technique:
a. when most of the canal is obturated by endodontic point material, apply a light coating of sealer with a paper point or file onto the canal walls to the working length.
b. If needed, apply a coating of sealer onto the surface of the root canal point.
c. Insert the points by following the standard procedure.
4. Place only a little sealer to prevent overfilling. For condensation and warm guttapercha obturation techniques apply only a thin sealer coating onto the canal walls.
