SafeEndo IodoCure is a calcium hydroxide paste with iodoform (radiopaque), serving as a versatile root filling material, suitable for temporary or permanent use. This paste, conveniently packaged in a syringe, eliminates the need for messy mixing. The combination of calcium hydroxide and iodoform stimulates the healing process, inducing hard-tissue deposition and exhibiting antibacterial properties. Iodoform's antibacterial effect, healing properties, and resorbability in excess complement the overall efficacy of Ca(OH)2. Experience efficient and effective root canal care with SafeEndo IodoCure.
Advantages :
- Strong antiseptic properties (contains iodoform)
- High pH value (12.8),provides fast,continuous and durable bactericidal effect during treatment of infected canals,and in periapical area (99% of bacteria are killed within 48 hours after root canal filling with the paste)
- Paste is easily removed from canals if necessary
- Stimulates hard tissues formation in apex
- Syringe with reinforced plunger,convenient to hold in hand, Luer-Lock cap
- Ultra-thin dispensing tips (0.52 mm with a hole size 22) allow to apply paste directly into canals
INDICATIONS : Paste is used as temporary filling of tooth root canals during staged treatment and as permanent filling of tooth root canals at the final stage of the treatment.
Paste IodoCure is used for :
- Treatment of acute and chronic forms of periodontitis
- Treatment of pulpitis, granulomatous periodontitis and granulating periodontitis
- For Apexification during treatment of tooth root canals with open apex in periodontitis
- Treatment of cystic lesion and chronic granuloma
- In case of root perforation and root resorption
- As permanent filling material for infected root canals after its treatment
- As permanent filling material for milk teeth
Features :
- Paste has a strong bactericidal effect.
- Iodoform provides prolonged antimicrobic effect in root canal microflora. When in contact with tissues iodoform undergoes gradual decomposition evolving free iodine.
- Hydrophobical paste-forming component provides paste’s fluidity and plasticity,
ensures hermetic sealing of root canal, protects soft tissues when inserting paste out of the
apex. - Calcium containing filler stimulates hard tissues formation at the apex level, provides alkaline (pH 12,8) antimicrobial medium and gradual paste hardening under the influence of in-thecanal moisture.
- Paste hardens in canal under the influence of in-the-canal moisture within 1-3 months.
- During hardening and after it the material can be easily removed out of the canal.
- Being out of apex in soft tissues paste reabsorbs.
- When filling of milk teeth paste reabsorbs as quickly as tooth resorption is held.
- Paste can be applied with gutta-percha or polypropylene points.
- IodoCure does not prevent from formation and developing of dental bud
- In order to avoid tooth crown coloring do not fill whole pulp cavity with the paste
COMPOSITION :
- Iodoform
- Calcium containing filler
- Hydrophobical paste-forming component
STORAGE :
- Store at the temperature from 5°C to 25°C
- Do not use after expiry date
- Shelf life – 3 years
Packaging :
- 2 x IodoCure syringe (2 gm)
Direction to Use :
- Put a tip on the syringe before use.
- Prepare root canal using liquid for widening, antiseptic treatment and dehydrating liquids.
- For treatment insert a tip into the canal and without too much pressure on syringe plunger fill the upper part of the canal with material, isolate with cotton swab and fill the cavity with temporary filling material (SmartTemp, SafeEndo.), without compression.
- Paste can stay in the cavity from 7-8 days to 1 month under care of the specialist. During follow up, in case of improvement, paste can be removed out of the canal.
- Clean the canal and using new tip, root needle or root canal filling instrument fill the canal with fresh portion of IodoCure paste, isolate with cavity liner and make the restoration of tooth crown.
- For filling insert paste IodoCure into prepared canal, closer to apex, with the use of syringe with tip.
- After applying of cavity liner make the restoration of tooth crown.
For treatment of milk teeth remove carious dentine and necrotizing tissues first, then fill the canal with hardening paste IodoCure, isolate with temporary filling. - During follow up extract upper part of temporary filling and fill the cavity
