    Dixon & Rickert in 1931

    Alternative to gutta –

percha based sealers



               www.indiandentalacademy.com
COMPOSITION

             Powder

Liquid

Zinc oxide        34 – 41.2%        Oil of Cloves   78–

80%

Precipitated silver 25 – 30%        Canada balsam 20-

22%

Oleo Resins       www.indiandentalacademy.com
                  30 – 16%
Advantages

    Excellent lubricating

    Working time more than 30 minute (1:1 ratio)

    Germicidal action & biocompatibility

    Greater bulk than any sealer


Disadvantage
    Silver makes the sealer extremely staining
               www.indiandentalacademy.com
Indication

     Warm gutta-percha technique – where lateral
canals present.

Manipulation
    Powder in pellet & liquid in dropper bottle
     1 drop of liquid to 1 pellet of powder, mixed
with heavy spatula
     Completely sets & inert within 15 - 30 mins,
reducing inflammatory responses.
                www.indiandentalacademy.com
     Because of rapid setting Grossman’s formula
(Procosol-silver cement) appeared in 1936.

     Both Rickert’s & Grossman’s formula criticized
for   including silver. Grossman’s formula revised in
      1958 to exclude silver (Procosol non-staining
      cement).

     Grossman’s formula again modified in 1974
(Grossman’s        Sealer)   by        addition   of   sodium
borate        to    the   powder   &     elimination   of   all
ingredients          except eugenol from liquid.
                    www.indiandentalacademy.com
   To solve problem of rapid setting of Kerr sealer
    formula of Kerr sealer EWT (extended working
    time) developed – 6 hrs working time.

      Both   endomethazone    &   N2   contain
corticosteroids in addition to paraformaldehyde

    Contain lead oxide, increases radioopacity

     lead oxide but continue to use 5 – 6.5%
paraformaldehyde

     Inclusion of heavy metal ions potentially
dangerous & corticosteroids pose hazards

CONCLUSION
      With    the     increased   amount      of    root   canal
treatment being performed by both the generalist &
specialist,   there      have   been   renewed       efforts   to
develop better sealer and core obturation materials &
techniques.         To   date   none   of   the    materials   &
techniques have safely reached the highest biologic
and technical level.

      It would seem that the dental profession has
not yet decided upon a universal root canal filling
material.      www.indiandentalacademy.com

  • 22. Manipulation  Sterile glass slab with spatula, 2 or 3 drops of liquid – small increments of cement powder, 2 smooth creamy consistency.  To test proper consistency – Drops test & String out test  Commercially available as Roth’s 801 and Sultan sealer www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 23. WACH’S SEALER Powder Liquid Zinc oxide 10 grm Canada Balsam 20ml Tricalcium phosphate 2grm Oil of cloves 6ml Bismuth subnitrage 3.5grm Bismuth subiodide 0.3grm Heavy magnesium oxide 0.5grm www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 24. Indication  All lateral condensation methods, when chance of overfilling is present. Contraindication  When heavy lubrication is needed Properties  Medium working time  Medium lubricating quality  Minimal periapical irritation  Sticky (Canada Balsam) www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 25. Should me mixed to smooth creamy consistency, should string out at least 1 inch when spatula raised from glass slab  Increasing thickness of sealer lessens lubricating effect, so indicated when there is possibility of over extension.  Available as powder & liquid in separate bottles Advantages  Germicidal, Less periapical irritation, Stays in position due tackiness www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 26. Disadvantages  Odour of liquid TUBLI SEAL (1961)  Slight modification made in Rickert’s formula  2 paste system – Base & catalyst www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 27. COMPOSITION Base Liquid Zinc oxide 57 – 59% Eugenol Oleo resins 18.5 – 21.5% Polymerized resin Bismuth trioxide 7.5% Annidalin Thymol iodide 3.75 – 5% Oil & waxes 10 % Setting Time  20 min – Glass slab  5 min – Root Canal www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 28. Advantages  Easy to mix  Extremely lubricated  Does not stain  Expands after setting Disadvantages  Irritant to periapical tissues  Very low viscosity – extrusion through apical foramen  Working time less than 30 min & even shorter in presence of moisture www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 29. Indications  When apical surgery to be performed immediately after filling  Because of great lubricating property – good choice when it becomes difficult for a master cone to reach last mm of preparation. Advantages & Disadvantages of ZOE Sealers Advantages  Ease of manipulation  Adhesion to dentinal walls, only slight dimensional change  Radioopaque, germicidal property, minimal staining, ample working time. www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 30. Disadvantages  All are cytotoxic & inflammatory response in connective tissue  Note easily absorbed from apical tissues ROOT CANAL SEALERS WITHOUT EUGENOL KLOROPERKA  Nyborg & Tullin (1965) www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 31. COMPOSITION Powder Liquid Canada Balsam 19.6% Chloroform Rosin 11.8% Gutta-percha 19.6% Zinc oxide 49%  Powder mixed with liquid chloroform  After insertion chloroform evaporates, leaving voids – shown to be associated with greater leakage www.indiandentalacademy.com than other materials.
  • 32. CHLOROPERCHA  Mixture of gutta-percha and chloroform  Used by some clinicians as sole canal filling materials – techniques is improper. Indications  Unusually curved canals  In conjunction with well fitted primary cone, can fill accessory canals and root canal space. www.indiandentalacademy.com
  • 33. HYDRON  Wichterle & Lim (1960)  Rapid setting hydrophilic plastic material used as sealer without core  Polymer of hydroxy-ethyl-methacrylate  Available as injectable root canal filling www.indiandentalacademy.com
