DIADENT GROUP INTERNATIONAL: DIA-ROOT BIO SEALER
Premixed bioceramic calcium silicate-based MTA sealer offers a strong bond, easy application, and ion release to promote tissue healing
Clinical success is on the forefront of every dentist’s mind and, more often than not, using the right materials is essential to a favorable outcome. When it comes to endodontic therapy, choosing root canal sealer infused with bioceramic properties can offer unique benefits on both sides of the chair.
“The literature would argue that, while not a perfect material, bioceramic sealers are a definite step above their predecessors in all key areas, which can only aid clinical success,” said endodontist Dr. Richard Mounce, a renowned dental lecturer and author.
These benefits are what initially piqued his interest in DiaDent’s DIA-ROOT BIO SEALER, a premixed bioceramic calcium silicate-based MTA sealer with nonshrinking properties and a strong bonding ability. “DIA-ROOT BIO SEALER is a member of the newer generation of bioceramic sealers, which offers antimicrobial properties with a high pH, excellent radiopacity, high stability, and less porosity than other classes of sealers,” Dr. Mounce shared.
Additionally, Dr. Mounce appreciates the material’s short setting time, which helps prevent washout, as well as its minimal expansion or contraction. “One of the things I really like about DIA-ROOT BIO SEALER is its consistency, as well as its strong hermetic characteristics that promote sealing,” he added. “It has excellent flow characteristics and is compatible with my obturation techniques.
”Since using DIA-ROOT BIO SEALER, Dr. Mounce shared that patient feedback post-treatment has been very positive, with reduced complaints of postoperative sensitivity compared to other sealers he has used.
A Go-To Material for Root Repair
Dr. Mounce also has enjoyed using DiaDent’s new DIA-ROOT MTA root repair material, especially for indications such as direct or indirect pulp therapy, apicoectomy-root end filling, resorption or perforation repair, pulpotomy as indicated, or one-step apexification. “The mixing and handling characteristics of this material are excellent,” he added. “I'm a big fan of DiaDent products—they are an innovative and dynamic manufacturer providing key products at good price points.”
