Maarc Sealmax+

• Filled with Bio-ceramics (MTA): Contains more than 20% of bio-ceramic material.
• No moisture required for setting: Activators in powders makes resin set.
• Calcium hydroxide release on surface when encounters moisture: Bio-ceramic fillers on surface when exposed to moisture releases ions and this raises pH of exposed surface, this also helps in inhibiting bacterial growth.
• Favours bone formation: Ion release enhances bone formation.
• Grain free.
• Ideal handling properties.
• Excellent radiopacity.

Composition :

Sealmax + Powder: Calcium Silicate, Tantalum Oxide, Methenamine, Titanium dioxide.
Sealmax + Resin: Epoxy resin

Dosage and Mixing: Powder and resin are mixed to a homogeneous consistency at the ratio of 1:1 w/w on the mixing-pad or glass slab using a spatula. String test can be used to confirm the consistency, which breaks when lifted 1.5 to 2.5 cm (1/2 to 1 inch) above the surface.

Setting Time: The setting time is within 24-30 hours at body temperature after mixing as per instructions.

Preparation of the Root Canal:

● Prior to application of Sealmax +, thoroughly clean the root canal.
● If an irrigating solution has been used, it is essential to make sure that the canal is free of any traces of irrigating solution, to avoid reaction of Sealmax + with the irrigants.
● If sodium hypochlorite or ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) are used alternatively for irrigation, use EDTA as the last irrigating agent.
● Thoroughly dry the root canal with paper points or by vacuum drying.

Step-By-Step Instructions:

● Apply the mixed Sealmax + onto the tip of a Lentulo spiral. To avoid the formation of air bubbles in the material and overfilling of the canal, advance the Lentulo spiral slowly to the apex running at very low speed. Withdraw Lentulo very slowly still running at low speed coating the walls of the root canal with the sealer.
● If Sealmax + is used in combination with other obturation points and if there is the risk of overfilling, apply Sealmax + in the canal using a spreader.
● Place Sealmax + by a pumping action of the spreader with simultaneous movement in a counter-clockwise direction.
● Dip the disinfected and dry master cone (gutta-percha) into Sealmax + and with pumping motions slowly push it into the canals. Additional gutta-percha points and lateral or vertical condensation methods can be applied for thorough obturation of the canal.
