RealSeal 1 from Sybron Endo

RealSeal 1 creates a true chemical bond and provides superior leakage prevention.

SybronEndo introduces RealSeal 1 Bonded Obturator, the next generation in carrier based delivery systems.

Like the original RealSeal Obturation System, RealSeal 1 uses Resilon as the filling material to coat the outside of the core. RealSeal 1 also introduces a self-etching, resin-based sealer that eliminates the priming step of the original system. By using a resin-based filling material, a resin-based sealer, and a resin-based core, RealSeal 1 creates a homogenous fill that enhances sealing, overcomes leakage associated with stripping, promotes accurate diagnosis of the core’s placement, and makes retreatment easier.

RealSeal 1 Obturators and Verifiers are injection molded for accuracy and precision. Each RealSeal 1 Obturator is centered inside the Resilon filling material, ensuring that all of the canal walls are coated as evenly as possible. The RealSeal 1 filling material has a higher radiopacity than gutta-percha. RealSeal 1 also offers dual radiopacity—the core and filling material have different levels of radiopacity. As a result of this “dual” radiopacity, the user is able to see the core’s location relative to the filling material inside the root canal. The dual radiopacity makes it easy to see when the core is placed too long or too short within the canal.
