Description

Preva ZOE+ – Polymer Reinforced ZOE Cement

Experience superior temporary restoration with Preva ZOE+, Prevalent’s advanced polymer-reinforced zinc oxide eugenol cement. Designed as an Intermediate Restorative Material (IRM), it delivers exceptional physical properties that rival permanent materials.
Preva ZOE+ combines the proven therapeutic benefits of traditional ZOE with modern polymer reinforcement technology. The result is outstanding compressive and tensile strength, superior abrasion resistance, and remarkably low solubility – strength comparable to zinc phosphate cement.

Clinical Applications

• Intermediate Restorative Material (IRM)- Class I and Class II restorations requiring extended service
• Emergency Temporary Restorations- Durable temporary coverage during emergency treatments
• Endodontic Sealing- Coronal sealing of teeth undergoing root canal treatment
• Base Material- Strong base under amalgam and other non-resin restorations
• Extended Temporary Restorations- When longer-lasting temporary restoration is needed
• High-Stress Areas- Posterior temporary restorations subject to occlusal forces

Why Choose Preva ZOE+?

• Superior Strength for Temporary Use
  Unlike standard ZOE, the polymer reinforcement gives Preva ZOE+ strength comparable to permanent materials. This means better performance in high-stress posterior areas and longer service life.
• True Intermediate Restorative Material
  When you need more than basic temporary filling but aren’t ready for permanent restoration, Preva ZOE+ bridges the gap perfectly. It can serve reliably for extended periods.
• Better than Traditional ZOE
  Standard ZOE is weak and wears quickly. Preva ZOE+ dramatically improves on these limitations while maintaining eugenol’s therapeutic benefits.
• Ideal for Endodontic Cases
  Perfect for sealing the coronal portion during multi-visit root canal treatment. Strong enough to withstand occlusal forces between appointments while providing pulp sedation.
• Low Solubility Advantage
  The polymer reinforcement significantly reduces solubility in oral fluids compared to traditional ZOE. This means better seal and less marginal breakdown over time.
• Abrasion Resistance
  Maintains contour and anatomy much better than standard ZOE. Important for posterior restorations that must resist chewing forces.
• Cost-Effective Durability
  When permanent restoration must be delayed, Preva ZOE+ provides reliable service without the cost of multiple replacements that weaker materials might require.

Working & Setting Times

• Mixing Time: 45-60 seconds
  Setting Time: Approximately 4-6 minutes
  Service Life: Extended compared to traditional ZOE

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What does polymer reinforced mean?

A: Polymer reinforcing agents are added to traditional ZOE to dramatically improve strength, abrasion resistance, and reduce solubility – creating a superior material.

Q: What is IRM?

A: IRM stands for Intermediate Restorative Material – a stronger temporary restoration for extended service when permanent restoration must be delayed.

Q: How is this different from regular ZOE?

A: Preva ZOE+ has significantly higher strength (comparable to zinc phosphate), superior abrasion resistance, and lower solubility than traditional ZOE.

Q: Can I use it for Class I and II restorations?

A: Yes. It’s specifically indicated for Class I and Class II intermediate restorations where higher strength is needed.

Q: How long can it last?

A: As an intermediate material, it can serve reliably for extended periods – weeks to several months depending on the situation.

Q: Can I use it under composite?

A: No. Like all eugenol-containing materials, it interferes with resin polymerization. Use only under non-resin materials like amalgam.

Q: What’s the powder-liquid ratio?

A: Mix 2 scoops of powder with 2-3 drops of liquid for optimal properties.

Q: Is it suitable for posterior teeth?

A: Yes. The high compressive strength and abrasion resistance make it excellent for posterior temporary restorations.

Q: Can I use it during root canal treatment?

A: Absolutely. It’s ideal for sealing the coronal portion of teeth undergoing endodontic treatment between appointments.

Q: How long does it take to set?

A: Allow approximately 4-6 minutes for hardening before finishing or patient dismissal.

Q: Is it stronger than temporary filling materials?

A: Yes. Much stronger than basic temporary materials, approaching the strength of some permanent cements.

Q: Can I use it as a base under amalgam?

A: Yes. It’s specifically indicated as a base under amalgam and other non-resin restorative materials.

Q: Does it still have eugenol’s sedative effect?

A: Yes. Despite polymer reinforcement, it maintains eugenol’s therapeutic benefits for pulp comfort.

Q: What makes it low solubility?

A: The polymer reinforcement creates a stronger matrix that resists dissolution in oral fluids better than traditional ZOE.
