Description
Proclinic Expert MTA Reparative Cement is an endodontic
reparative cement, containing mineral trioxide aggregate
(MTA). It is indicated for the treatment of lateral and furcation
perforations, apexification, internal resorption, pulpotomy,
pulp capping, and apexogenesis. Calcium ions are released that
promote the formation of a dentin bridge when used for pulp
capping and promote biological healing and the formation of root
cement in cases of root perforations.
Product Features
Consultants used Proclinic Expert MTA Reparative Cement for a
variety of applications and reported it was easy to mix and handle.
The texture is less gritty than other reparative cements. Working
time is appropriate for all indications, and placement requires
no special carriers. Manipulation and clean-up of the cement
were reported to be better than similar products. Consultants
would have preferred a quicker setting time. The white color
was universally accepted for use under esthetic restorations, and
radiopacity was rated excellent.
