Septodont Bio Root RCS :
It is used as a permanent root canal sealer. It has outstanding adhesion to dentin and gutta-percha points. Hydrophilic - Bio Root RCS continues the sealing process in the presence of moisture. It has a pure mineral formulation - will not stain teeth. It is resin-free - made from pure calcium silicate and is monomer-free, ensuring zero shrinkage. It has great flowability - seals auxiliary canals and uses cold single cone or cold lateral condensation. It has high 5mm Al radiopacity for clear images on radiographs.
Features :
- Hydrophilic - BioRoot RCS continues the sealing process in the presence of moisture.
- Pure mineral formulation - will not stain teeth
- Resin-free - made from pure calcium silicate and is monomer-free ensuring zero shrinkage.
- Great flowability - seals auxiliary canals

- High 5mm Al radiopacity for clear images on radiographs
- It is highly biocompatible and reduces the risk of adverse tissue reactions.
- Stimulates bone physiological process and mineralization of the dentinal structure.
- It prevents bacterial growth leading to clinical failures.
- It can be easily removed from the root canal if retreatment is required.
Specifications :

Packaging :
- 1 x 15g Powder Bottle
- 35 x 0.20ml Liquid Pipette
- 1 x Measuring Spoon
Direction To Use :
MIXING INSTRUCTIONS: The mix must be made extemporaneously.
- Collect the powder with the spoon supplied in the box. Put a level spoonful of the powder on the mixing pad.
- Detach a mixing solution single dose container. Twist the cap to open. Pour 5 drops
from the single dose container on the mixing pad. - Prepare the root canal sealer by progressively adding the powder to the liquid. Mix until obtaining a smooth paste (about 60 seconds). As soon as a smooth, creamy consistency is obtained, do not incorporate any remaining powder into the liquid.
- Immediately rinse and clean the instruments to remove any residual material.
- BioRootTM RCS has a minimum working time of 10 minutes and a maximum setting time of 4 hours.
PLACEMENT INTO THE ROOT CANAL
- Perform the root canal cleaning and shaping procedure using standard endodontic
procedures. - Select a standardized gutta-percha master cone and check that it fits snugly at the working length.
- Dry the canal with paper points.
- Prepare BioRoot™ RCS according to the above-mentioned mixing instructions.
- Apply a coating of BioRootTM RCS onto the canal walls using either a paper point or the gutta-percha point.
- Complete the obturation by inserting the gutta-percha master cone previously coated withBioRoot™ RCS (single-cone technique) or several coated gutta-percha points (lateral condensation technique).
- Assess the quality of the root canal filling with a radiograph.
- Use a hot instrument to sever the protruding gutta-percha.
Perform the temporary restoration using any temporary filling material. - If a post-placement is required, it should be performed after the complete hardening of BioRoot™ RCS, i.e. between 1 week and 1 month.
