Features and benefits
- Chelates calcium to remove the inorganic component of the smear layer, which sodium hypochlorite cannot touch — the two are complementary and neither alone leaves a clean canal wall; opens the dentinal tubules so irrigants, medicaments and sealer contact clean dentine, which directly improves the quality of the seal; lubricates the file and softens the canal wall, easing negotiation of narrow and calcified canals and reducing the torque demand on rotary files; helps prevent ledging and blockage during instrumentation. Gel form clings to the file and the canal wall rather than running out of the chamber, so it stays where it is needed during instrumentation; many formulations of this type also contain urea peroxide, which provides an effervescent action that lifts debris coronally. The 25 ml bulk syringe gives the lowest cost per case for a high-volume endodontic practice.
Directions to use
Place a small amount of gel in the pulp chamber at the start of instrumentation and carry it into the canal on the file. Replenish as the canal is enlarged. Alternate with copious sodium hypochlorite irrigation — the gel is a lubricant and chelator, not a substitute for hypochlorite, and the two should not be left mixed in the canal for long periods, as EDTA inactivates hypochlorite. Before obturation, perform a final rinse with EDTA solution for one minute, then flush thoroughly with saline or sterile water to stop the chelation — leaving EDTA in the canal causes continued dentine erosion. Dry with paper points before placing sealer. Confirm exact composition, setting times and contraindications against the SafeEndo IFU before publishing.
