Product Features

Diapaste is a useful product for many endodontic indications, and consultants liked having a choice without iodoform. The product is easy and convenient to dispense from the syringe delivery, and the flexible disposable tips are narrow enough to reach well into the canal, providing good access. The thin straight tips can be easily bent according to preference. The low viscosity paste maintains a homogeneous consistency in the syringe, and it remains soft for easy removal when necessary.Fifty-six percent would switch to Diapaste and 81% would recommend it to a colleague.
