Clinical Overview
CeraPutty™ is a ready-to-use, premixed bioceramic root repair putty (calcium silicate composite), pre-loaded in two 0.5 g syringes (total of 1 g). It eliminates the need to mix MTA powder and liquid, relying instead on canal moisture to initiate setting into a stable, hermetic seal without shrinkage or expansion.
Key Benefits
- No mixing required: Reduces preparation time and material waste by delivering a premixed, ready-to-use format.
- Excellent healing & bioactivity: Contains ~65% bioactive ingredients and is resin-free, supporting tissue repair and compatibility.
- Antimicrobial alkaline environment: With a pH exceeding 12.7 (up to ~13.2), it creates a hostile environment for bacteria.
- Fast setting: Surface sets in ~2 minutes with moisture, full set within 20 minutes—minimizing wash-out risk.
- Low film thickness & high flowability: Exhibits flowability > 9.73 mm and film thickness around 86 µm—ideal for precise canal penetration.
- Clear radiopacity: Radiopacity ≥ 6.6 mmAl, thanks to zirconium dioxide, supports accurate radiographic assessment.
- Stable and aesthetic: White formulation prevents discoloration, ensuring enduring seal integrity.
Kit Contents
- 2 × 0.5 g premixed syringes of CeraPutty™ (total: 1 g)
Indications
- Repair of root perforations, resorptions, apical surgery fillings, apexification, and pulp capping
- Permanent root canal filling and surgical application across various obturation techniques
- Situations demanding a rapid, antibacterial, and stable seal in moist environments
Instructions for Use
- Complete standard canal preparation and irrigation; remove excessive moisture.
- Attach the syringe nozzle and deliver putty directly into the canal or defect.
- Use a plugger to adapt putty to the intended site; avoid overfill.
- If applicable, place a moist cotton pellet for ~2 min, then allow full set (~20 min).
- Confirm placement via radiograph.
- Proceed with coronal restoration once set.
- Dispose of used syringe according to local medical cytology guidelines.
Summary
CeraPutty™ (0.5 g × 2 syringes) is a high-performance bioceramic root repair putty delivering efficient, biocompatible sealing with a rapid set, antimicrobial pH, optimal radiopacity, and aesthetic white color. Its stable volume post-setting, ease of use, and clinical reliability make it a superior choice for endodontic repair and obturation procedures.
