Consultants’ Comments
- “The ease of placement, viscosity and radiopacity were unparalleled!”
- “A couple cases where the long-term periapical abscess showed a blurred apex, BioRoot Flow worked like magic to show radiographic seal.”
- “I like that it is non-reactive to tissues and has biocompatibility.”
- “The viscosity makes it easy to use with the flexible tip.”
- “Injecting sealer to get expression into lateral and accessory canals is great.”
- “No messy cement mixing needed which increases efficiency during the root canal procedure.”
- “This is the easiest RCT sealer.”
- “I would like an additional tip that is pre-bent at approximately 45º.”
Description

- Compatible with the warm and cold techniques
- Ready-to-use syringe with easy extrusion
- Can be used directly intra-canal with 20-gauge bendable tip
- High radiopacity at 5 mm Al making it easily visible on radiographs
- High pH to limit bacterial growth
- Penetrates radicular canals by seeking residual water
- Biocompatible high purity calcium silicate
- Bioactive by releasing calcium to form hydroxyapatite
Clinical Tips
- “In addition to using the flexible tip, I also used a paper point and master cone gutta percha to get the sealer all the way into the canal.”
- “I measure the tip and put a slight bend in the tip at working length, so I have an idea where the tip is in relation to the apex.”
- “A little goes a long way – use the measurements on the side of the syringe to help guide how much is used.”
Unique Attributes
- Less force required on plunger to extrude into canals than other brands.
- Flexible 20-gauge diameter tip for intra-canal placement.
Indications
- Permanent root canal filling in combination with gutta-percha points in case of inflamed or necrotic pulp or following a retreatment procedure.
