ActaCal Bio Ceramic Sealer is an aluminum-free, pre-mixed, bioactive, bio ceramic, calcium-silicate-based MTA root canal sealer. Upon contact with biological fluids in the root canal, ActaSeal undergoes a hydration reaction, releasing calcium ions and forming hydroxyapatite crystals. The reaction forms a hybrid, mineral-rich layer at the interface between the sealer and the dentin, creating micro-mechanical anchorage and strong adhesion. With outstanding adhesive properties, high biocompatibility, negligible shrinkage and high purity, this bioactive mineral formulation offers significantly greater long-term success than other obturation techniques.
Features & Benefits:
- Aluminum-Free: Designed to promote setting and maximize bioactivity
- Promotes the formation of hydroxyapatite on the surface to seal and support healing through the release of calcium and hydroxide ions
- Biocompatible, non-cytotoxic, non-genotoxic, initially high in pH (alkaline/basic), which has shown to be antimicrobial in-vitro
- Works with both warm vertical and single cone obturation techniques
- Time-saving safe direct application utilizing specially designed paste delivery tips
- Dual-Side-Vent Needle – Visible, 3D controlled placement Closed-end Needle – Prevents extrusion beyond apex 1 - 2gram syringe with 10 3DPD (3 dimensional paste delivery tips)
