Ultra-Etch Single Syringe 1.2ml

Clinical Overview

Ultra‑Etch™ is a 35 % phosphoric acid etchant presented in a 1.2 mL syringe designed for controlled enamel and dentin conditioning. Its blue, thixotropic gel consistency allows precise, non-drip application, even on vertical surfaces, while its self‑limiting etch depth (~1.9 µm at 15–20 s) optimizes adhesive bonding and reduces postoperative sensitivity.

Key Benefits

• Ideal viscosity with capillary action: Penetrates tiny fissures without migrating off vertical surfaces.
• Self‑limiting etch depth (~1.9 µm): Prevents over-etching; produces optimal microporosities for adhesive penetration.
• Precise placement and rinseability: Blue tint enhances visibility; rinses cleanly with no residue left behind.
• Compatible with precision tips: Use with Blue Micro™ or Inspiral™ Brush tips for controlled delivery.
• Reduces sensitivity risk: Self‑limiting depth and clean rinse reduce postoperative discomfort.

Kit Contents

• 1 × 1.2 mL syringe of Ultra‑Etch™ 35% phosphoric acid gel
• (Typically compatible with Blue Micro™ Tip or Inspiral™ Brush tip; tips may be included separately)
• Instructions for use leaflet

Working & Setting

• Etching time: 15–20 seconds on enamel or dentin for optimal micro-porosity.
• Depth of etch: Self-limiting to ~1.9 µm on dentin—ideal for adhesive penetration without compromising structure.
• Rinse: Thorough water rinse for 10–15 seconds until all gel is removed. Surface should appear clean, no residue.

Indications

• Total‑etch bonding protocols on enamel and dentin surfaces.
• Composite restorations, sealants, adhesive cementation, or indirect bonding.
• Preparation on occlusal surfaces, Class III, V margin extension, or fissure sealant placement.

Instructions for Use

1. Ensure tooth surface is clean and isolated.
2. Attach Blue Micro™ Tip or Inspiral™ Brush tip.
3. Apply Ultra‑Etch™ to enamel or dentin in target area; avoid contacting soft tissues.
4. Leave in place for 15–20 seconds.
5. Rinse thoroughly with water for 10–15 seconds; blot dry but keep surface visibly moist.
6. Proceed immediately with adhesive or restorative protocol.
7. Dispose unused gel and tips according to infection control guidelines.

Summary

Ultradent Ultra‑Etch™ Single Syringe (Ref. 685‑1, 1.2 mL) delivers reliable, clinician-controlled etching with ideal viscosity, precise placement, and self‑limiting depth of etch. Its formulation improves adhesive penetration, reduces sensitivity, and ensures cleaner etching procedures for enamel and dentin with minimal risk.
