Description
Prevalent Calcium Hydroxide – Extra Fine Calcium Hydroxide Powder
Prevalent Calcium Hydroxide – Extra Fine Powder is a professional dental material for selected endodontic procedures. The extra fine powder mixes easily with a suitable compatible vehicle. Therefore, clinicians can prepare the consistency required for the intended application.
When clinicians mix calcium hydroxide with a suitable vehicle, the material creates a highly alkaline environment. As a result, dental professionals commonly choose calcium hydroxide for selected endodontic procedures.
For example, clinicians can prepare the material as an intracanal dressing during root canal treatment. In addition, they may use it as an interappointment dressing when the clinical situation requires calcium hydroxide.
The extra fine powder supports smooth and uniform mixing. Moreover, clinicians can prepare only the quantity required for each procedure. Consequently, the powder format offers flexibility for different application techniques.
Clinicians should always select a suitable vehicle for the intended procedure. Furthermore, they should use appropriate isolation and follow accepted clinical techniques during application.
