Seek Kit, Caries Indicator, Green

Clinical Overview

Seek™ is a Green ‑dye caries indicator in a glycol-based formulation designed for precise, syringe‑delivered application. It stains demineralized dentin Green, providing excellent contrast on dark substrates and helping clinicians locate calcified canal orifices quickly and effectively.

Key Benefits

• Green contrast dye: Highly visible on dark dentin, ideal for identifying calcified orifices.

• Prevents over‑excavation: Helps distinguish carious tissue from sound dentin, reducing risk of pulp exposure in deep lesions.

• Syringe‑delivered precision: Mess‑free application with disposable brush tips.

• Efficient workflow: Four syringes and 20 Black Mini™ tips support multiple procedures.

• Gluten‑free certified: Safe for patients with dietary sensitivities.

Kit Contents

• 4 × 1.2 mL syringes of Seek™ Green caries indicator

• 20 × Black Mini™ disposable brush tips for controlled application

Working & Handling

• Ready‑to‑use gel: No mixing required; apply directly using brush tip.

• High visibility on dark dentin: Green stain provides immediate contrast even in low‑light or confounding shade areas.

• Brush tip control: Limits spread and waste while enhancing precision.

Indications

• Staining and identification of demineralized dentin in Class I–III lesions or at DE junctions

• Fast visualization of calcified root canal orifices during endodontic access preparation.

• Operative guide to minimize removal of sound dentin in deep caries cases.

Instructions for Use

1. Remove gross caries to firm dentin and ensure lesion remains moist.

2. Attach a Black Mini™ brush tip to the Seek™ syringe.

3. Apply a small amount of Green Seek™ gel to lesion floor, walls, or suspected root‑canal sites.

4. Allow to dwell ~10 seconds, then rinse and suction—Green‑stained areas correspond to demineralized dentin.

5. Excavate stained tissue carefully; reapply as needed until staining no longer appears.

6. Discard brush tip after use; avoid staining of clothing or surfaces.

Summary

Ultradent Seek™ Kit (Ref. 209) offers a high‑contrast, Green‑dye caries indicator delivered via syringe for accurate, mess‑free application. Especially useful for locating calcified canal orifices and guiding selective caries removal, it supports conservative operative and endodontic workflows. With disposable tips and gluten‑free composition, it enhances safety, precision, and clinical confidence.
