Due to its unique properties, Biodentine (patented dentin substitute composed mainly of pure tricalcium silicate) has become a worldwide reference within 10 years. Its high bioactive properties allow the formation of hydroxyapatite and contribute to maintaining pulp vitality and its biocompatibility to reduce the risk of tissue and pulp reactions.
However, it could be criticized for its difficulty in mixing and applying. Today the protocol is greatly simplified by incorporating the Biodentine molecule, identical in every respect to the original, into a cartridge. Each cartridge contains the right amount of powder and liquid that can be mixed in its dedicated mixer to obtain a homogeneous and reproducible consistency. The practitioner then simply applies the product directly to the tooth using the applicator gun or into the root using a manual instrument.
We could justify the need for an additional vibrator, but none of the vibrators used by the practitioner in practice have the necessary characteristics to ensure perfect consistency (high rotation of 6200 rpm combined with a sinusoidal movement and a speed that gradually increases increases to the maximum). Speed).
Aware of this problem, Septodont designed it to be round, vertical and with a limited footprint. Depending on the depth of the cavity, doctors can choose between XP 200 and XP 500 for the correct product dose.
The dentin-like properties of Biodentine™ make it a material of choice as a coronary dentin replacement. Also, get into the habit of using the entire amount available to fill your cavity.
On the other hand, the coronal seal is no longer guaranteed after more than 6 months, then it is sufficient to cut the tooth to create your composite with your usual composite. A starter pack provides physicians with all necessary components, including mixer, applicator gun, and Biodentine™ XP 200 and Biodentine™ XP 500 cartridges.
All you then have to do is order the cartridges in boxes of 10.
