Direction to Use :-
DISPENSING AND MIXING.
STEP – 1
- The powder/liquid ratio is 26/1.0.
STEP -2
- This can be obtained by mixing 1 level scoop of powder and 2 drops of liquid.
STEP – 3
- If a thinner or firmer (orthograde) (see 5.4)the room recommended mixing ratio is 2.1 (by weight).
STEP – 4
- This can be obtained by mixing 3 level scoops of powder and 8 drops of liquid.
STEP – 5
- The mixed material gives a sufficient amount for apexification that can be applied optimally with a suitable application device into the root canal.
STEP – 6
- For mixing of ROOT+PLUS use a mixing pad that is impervious to water or a glass block of suitable dimension.
STEP – 7
- For accurate dispensing of ROOT+PLUS powder shake the bottle to loosen the powder.
STEP – 8
- Overfill the spoon with the powder, level the powder with the mixing spatula and carry it into the mixing pad.
STEP – 9
- For dispensing of ROOT+PLUS liquid turn the bottle vertically with the tip about 5cm above the mixing pad.
STEP – 10
- Steady your hand and squeeze the bottle gently to dispense one drop at a time.
STEP – 11
- If any bubbles are present, lightly tap the bottle with the fingers holding it.
STEP – 12
- Discount undersized drops that contain bubbles and are obviously not full-sized.
STEP-13
- Discount over-sized drops usually resulting from holding the bottle to close to mixing pad or squeezing the bottle too hard and/or for too long.
STEP – 14
- Use a small spatula to rapidly mix all the cement powder in portions into the liquid.
STEP – 15
- The mixed cement should be thixotropic and have a homogeneous consistency. The total mixing time is 30 seconds.
STEP – 16
- If desired, a more rigid consistency can be achieved by adding some liquid.
STEP – 17
- After use, tightly close both liquid powder bottles to prevent exposure to moisture.
REPAIR OF ROOT PERFORATIONS :
STEP – 1
- Place rubber dam and clean the root canal system using intra-canal instruments and irrigate with NaOCI.
STEP – 2
- Dry the root canal with paper points and isolate the perforation.
STEP – 3
- Fill the apical canal space p to the perforation completely with a suitable root canal filling material.
STEP- 4
- Mix ROOT+PLUS as described under point 4.
STEP – 5
- Apply ROOT+PLUS with suitable instruments into the perforation site and condense it.
STEP- 6
- Check the position of ROOT+PLUS in the root canal by an X-ray.
STEP – 7
- If an adequate barrier has not been created, rinse ROOT+PLUS out of the canal and repeat the procedure.
STEP-8
- Remove excess moisture with a damp cotton pellet or a paper point.
STEP – 9
- Place a damp cotton pellet in the access to the root canal and apply a temporary filling material.
STEP – 10
- Alternatively, seal the access preparation with a suitable root canal filling material and seal the cavity with a tight filling.
STEP -11
- Both options can be done not before 5 minutes after the placement of the ROOT+PLUS.
STEP – 12
- ROOT+PLUS repair material remains as a permanent part of the root canal filling.
ROOT END FILLING (Retrograde)
- Create access to the not-end and resect the root with a surgical bur.
- Use an ultrasonic tip to prepare a class I root-end cavity preparation to a depth of 3-5mm.
- Isolate the area and dry the root end cavity with paper points. Achieve hemostasis with suitable methods.
- Apply ROOT+PLUS with suitable instruments and condense it using a small plugger.
- Remove excess cement and clean the surface of the root with a moist piece of gauze.
- Confirm placement of the MTA-universal repair material with an X-ray.
- The ROOT+PLUS repair material remains as a permanent part of the root canal filling.
PULP CAPPING :
- Place rubber dam and prepare the cavity outline. If caries is present, remove it. Rinse cavity and exposed pulpal areas with a suitable disinfectant.
- With a suitable instrument apply a small amount of ROOT+PLUS place a small amount of a flowable light cure liner and light cure.
- Etch the remaining cavity walls according to the total-etch technique with ETCHING GEL and apply a suitable bonding agent according to the corresponding instructions.
- Place a light cure composite according to the instructions and light cure.
- Pulp vitality and status should be checked by X-ray at regular intervals.
ROOT END FILLING (orthograde)
- Place rubber dam and clean the root canal system using intra-canal instruments and irrigate with NaOCI.Dry the root canal with paper points.
- For disinfection place calcium hydroxide paste in the root canal for one week.Seal the access opening with a temporary filling material.
- with a suitable instrument apply a small amount of ROOT+PLUS into the apical region and condense it. Create a 3-5mm barrier of ROOT+PLUS.
- Check the position of ROOT+PLUS by an X-ray. If an adequate barrier has not been created, rinse ROOT+PLUS out of the canal and repeat the procedure.
- Remove excess moisture with a damp cotton pellet or a paper point.
- Place a damp cotton pellet in the access to the root canal and apply a temporary filling material.
- Alternatively, seal the access preparation with a suitable root canal filling material and seal the cavity with a tight filling.
- Both options can be done not before 5 minutes after the placement of the ROOT+PLUS.
- ROOT+PLUS repair material remains as a permanent part of the root canal filling.
