ActaCal Calcium Silicate-Based BC Sealer
ActaCal Sealer is a Pre-mixed, Bioactive, Bioceramic, Calcium-Silicate-Based MTA Root Canal Sealer.
Upon contact with biological fluids in the root canals, 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.
Indications
- Bioceramic based root canal sealer that provides complete and permanent sealing of root canals
- Can be used with or without root canal obturation materials
Features & Benefits
- 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
- 2-Side-Vent Needle – Visible, 3D controlled placement
- Closed-end Needle – Prevents extrusion beyond apex
Composition
- Tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, calcium sulfate, zirconium oxide, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, fumed silica, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose, bentonite clay, radiopacifiers
