Characteristics and benefits
1. Can Bio-C Sealer be used without gutta-percha cones?
The recommended technique is to use it with gp cones, as sealer only should be harder to be removed if needed.
2. What is the setting time of BIO-C SEALER?
The setting time is ≤240 minutes and depends on canal humidity level.
3. Should I leave the canal moist in order to use BIO-C SEALER?
No, moisture, which initiates the material setting, comes from apical tissues and dentinal tubules.
4. What is the resin used as base in BIO-C SEALER?
BIO- C SEALER has no resinous base. Its viscosity is given by a long-chain alcohol, the polyethylene glycol. Therefore, the product is more biocompatible and easier to clean.
5. How should I store BIO-C SEALER?
The storage should be in a dry ventilated place and it SHOULD NOT BE STORED IN THE FRIDGE.
6. Can BIO-C SEALER be used in single cone techniques?
Yes, the product can be used for both cold single or lateral condensation techniques.
7. What is the difference between BIO-C SEALER and MTA-Fillapex?
BIO-C SEALER is a non-resin based ready-to-use bioceramic sealer with a 65% bioceramic load. MTA-Fillapex is a resin based bioceramic sealer (salicylate resin), dual paste, with a 13% bioceramic load.
8. How many conduits are possible witch 1 BIO-C SEALER syringe?
It is possible to perform 10 to 12 root canal obturations.
9. Is the BIO-C SEALER resorbable when extruded to the periapical region?
The BIO-SEALER has in its composition modified calcium silicate and calcium sulfate which, when in contact with water, are hydrated in the form of hydrated modified calciumsilicate (Ca2MgSi2O7.H2O) and hydrated calcium sulfate (CaSO4. 2H2O), both are poorly soluble, causing saturation in the physiological environment and consequently, precipitation of needle-shaped crystals.
The imbrication of these needle-shaped crystals (CaSO4.2H2O) with modified Ca2MgSi2O7.H2O crystals provide cohesion and mechanical strength while promoting desirable expansion. A portion of the material in the form of calcium, magnesium, and hydroxyl ions can be absorbed quickly in contact with perirradicular tissues if accidentally extruded.
However, Ca2MgSi2O7.H2O and CaSO4.2H2O are matrices that in the presence of the radiopacifying content (zirconium oxide) represent the insoluble part of the product, and exhibit high chemical stability, being notabsorbed or solubilized.
10. How many bioceramic content are in the BIO-C SEALER composition?
The product has about 67.5% of bioceramic content in its composition.
