- “The small application tip was great to work with.”
- “Unable to utilize for warm vertical condensation.”
- “Using a syringe to inject into the canal can result in overfilling of the canal.”
Description
ZenSeal™ is a root canal sealer that:
- Is calcium-silicate based
- Requires no mixing
- Offers high flowability
Unique Attributes
- Syringe with small tip allows for direct placement into the canal
- Premixed
- Active components mimic MTA
- Low film thickness
Clinical Tips
- Mark the disposable tips to measure depth and avoid overfilling.
- Place the material quickly as it does set up faster than we would normally expect.
- It is not necessary to pump the gutta percha as the cement will flow into the cleaned areas.
- After thoroughly instrumenting, cleaning and drying the canal, place the cement into the canal and gently place your gutta percha.
- Extrude material very slowly, with little pressure, through the needle tip into the canal withdrawing slowly as the material extrudes.
- Push gently on the syringe, a little goes a long way.
Indications
- Permanent obturation of the root canal following vital pulp-extirpation, removal of infected or necrotic pulp and placement of intracanal dressings.
- ZenSeal is suitable for the single-cone technique.
