Cement and Hardener
Both zinc oxide and eugenol have well known and therapeutic effects on the pulp.
Eugenol can be both anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial, depending on the concentration reaching the dentine and pulp.
Triamcinolone, released from LEDERMIX™ Cement can diffuse through the dentine to reach the pulp. In one study, 97% if teeth, treated with LEDERMIX Cement, had the reversible pulpitis resolved.
In addition, calcium hydroxide has beneficial effects on the healing of dental pulps and the formation of reparative dentine.
Being a hard setting material, LEDERMIX™ Cement, is useful as a sedative dressing or lining under temporary or final restorations in teeth with reversible pulpitis – with or without pulp exposures. Interim crowns can be cemented using LEDERIX Cement to reduce inflammation due to preparation. Additionally . LEDERMIX™ Cement can be used in the management of cracked teeth with reversible pulpitis.
It can also be used as a root filling material following canal cleaning and preparation for primary teeth.
