Dentical LC, a light-cure calcium hydroxide-based liner, delivers numerous advantages for diverse restorative dental procedures. Often employed as a liner or base, it offers added support and protection during treatments. Boasting antibacterial action, alkalinity, and radiopacity, Dentical LC is highly effective. Furthermore, its biocompatibility ensures minimal adverse reactions, as it is well-tolerated by surrounding oral tissues.
Indications:
- Direct Pulp Capping: Dentical LC is applied directly on the exposed pulp to stimulate the formation of secondary dentin and preserve the vitality of the pulp.
- Indirect Pulp Capping: The material is used on carious dentin to prevent further bacterial invasion and promote the natural regeneration of dentin.
- Pulp Protection: Dentical LC is applied underneath composite or glass ionomer cement restorations to safeguard the pulp from potential thermal or chemical injury.
- Pulpotomy: In primary teeth, Dentical LC liners can be used for pulpotomy procedures, where the coronal portion of the pulp is removed, and the liner is placed on the remaining pulp tissue to promote healing and maintain tooth vitality.
- Cavity Liner: Dentical LC can be applied as a liner in deep cavities to promote remineralization of dentin and provide thermal insulation, helping to protect the tooth structure.
Contraindications:
- Patients with known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.
- Patients with irreversible pulpitis or pulp necrosis.
- Patients with periapical pathology or infection.
