Dental Ammdent Root Plus MTA
Instruction for Use:
ROOT+PLUS is an endodontic repair cement. ROOT+PLUS powder is consisting of very fine hydrophilic particles of several mineral oxides. After contact with ROOT+PLIJS liquid it forms a gel that hardens to an impermeable barrier.
Indications:
Repair of root perforations during root canal therapy.
Root end filling (retrograde).
Pulp capping-Root end filling (orthograde)
Dispensing and Mixing:
The powder/liquid ratio is 2.6/1.0. This can be obtained by mixing 1 level scoop of powder and 2 drops of liquid. If a thinner or firmer consistency is desired, the mixing ration can be modified slightly: For root end filling (orthograde) (see 5.4) the recommended mixing ratio is 2:1 (by weight). This can be obtained by mixing 3 level scoops of powder and 8 drops of liquid. The mixed material gives a sufficient amount for apexification that can be applied optimally with a suitable application device into the root canal.
For mixing of ROOT+PLUS use a mixing pad that is impervious to water or a glass block of suitable dimension. For accurate dispensing of ROOT+PLUS powder shake the bottle to loosen the powder. Overfill the spoon with the powder, level the powder with the mixing spatula and carry it onto the mixing pad.
For dispensing of ROOT+PLUS liquid turn the bottle vertically with the tip about 5cm above the mixing pad. Steady your hand and squeeze the bottle gently to dispense one drop at a time. If any bubbles are present, lightly tap the bottle with the fingers holding it. Discount under-sized drops that contain bubbles and are obviously not full-sized. Discount over-sized drops, usually resulting from holding the bottle too close to the mixing pad or squeezing the bottle too hard and/or for too long,
