Description:
Calci-Jen IF 35% is a radiopaque paste based on calcium hydroxide with iodoform, which is used in dentistry for:
- Direct and indirect pulp capping: Protects the pulp under a filling or when exposed.
- Temporary root canal fillings: In primary and permanent teeth.
- As a liner: Prevents pulp from coming into contact with the acidic environment of filling materials.
Composition:
- Calcium hydroxide
- Iodoform
- Water
- Fillers
- Stabilizers
Properties:
- Antibacterial action: Iodoform fights bacteria, which prevents pulp infection.
- Stimulation of dentin formation: Calcium hydroxide stimulates the formation of a dentin bridge that protects the pulp.
- Radiopaque: The paste is clearly visualized on an X-ray, allowing you to control its distribution in the canal.
- Easy washout: The paste is easily removed with water before permanent filling.
Indications for use:
- Indirect pulp capping
- Direct pulp coverage (during pulp exposure or pulpotomy)
