COMPOSITION

• Tricalcium silicate powder
• Aqueous calcium chloride solution
• Excipients

• 5x Biodentine Capsules
• 5x Single-Dose Container

• Take a capsule and gently tap it on a hard surface to loosen the powder.
• Open a capsule and place it on the white capsule holder.
• Detach a single-dose container of liquid and gently tap on the sealed cap to force all the liquid down
  the container.
• Twist the cap to open. Be careful that no drop of liquid falls out of the single-dose container.
• Pour 5 drops from the single-dose container into the capsule.
• Close the capsule. Place the capsule on a mixing device, such as Technomix, Tac 400 (Lineatac), Silamat, Cap-Mix, Rotomix, Ultramat, etc., at a speed of 4000 – 4200 rotations/min.
• Mix for 30 seconds.
• Open the capsule and check the material consistency. If a thicker consistency is preferred, wait for 30 sec to 1 min before checking again. Do not exceed the working time.
• Collect Biodentine® with the instrument supplied in the box. Depending on the desired application, you may handle Biodentine® with an amalgam carrier, a spatula, or a Root Canal Messing Gun. Rapidly rinse and clean the instruments to remove any residual material.

Question: What is Biodentine?
Answer: Biodentine is a tricalcium silicate-based material developed as a permanent dentin substitute. It is designed to be bioactive and biocompatible, offering excellent sealing properties and promoting reactionary dentine formation.

Question: How does Biodentine differ from other dental cement?
Answer: Biodentine stands out from other commercially available cement due to its unique properties. It has a shorter setting time, a high pH level with antibacterial properties, high resistance to microleakage, and superior calcium ion release. It also provides excellent marginal adaptation and has a creamy consistency for easy handling.

Question: What are the applications of Biodentine?
Answer: Biodentine has versatile usage in both crown and root areas. In the crown, it can be used for temporary enamel restoration, permanent dentin restoration, deep or large carious lesions, deep cervical or radicular lesions, pulp capping, and pulpotomy. In the root, it is suitable for root and furcation perforations, internal/external resorptions, apexification, and retrograde surgical filling.

Question: Does Biodentine stimulate dentine formation and maintain pulp vitality?
Answer: Yes, Biodentine has the ability to stimulate the formation of reactionary dentine, which helps in maintaining pulp vitality despite deep cavity preparation and filling material placement.

Question: How long does Biodentine take to set?Answer: Biodentine has a relatively short setting time. The initial setting time is around 6 minutes, and the final setting time is approximately 6 hours. This allows for efficient and timely restorative procedures.

Question: Can Biodentine be used as a temporary restoration?
Answer: Yes, Biodentine can serve as a restorative temporary solution for up to 6 months. This provides flexibility in cases where temporary restoration is required before a permanent solution is implemented.

Question: Is Biodentine resistant to microleakage?

Answer: Yes, Biodentine exhibits high resistance to microleakage, which reduces the risk of secondary caries and ensures a more durable and long-lasting restoration.
