Polycarboxylate Cement is a dual-component dental product consisting of a powder and a liquid. The powder contains zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, strontium chloride, and tannic acid, while the liquid component is polyacrylic acid.
This cement is ideal for the cementation of crowns, bridges, inlays, and orthodontic brackets, and serves as an effective cavity lining under all restorative materials. It can also be used for temporary fillings, such as direct or indirect pulp-capping, with minimal pulp irritation, even on freshly cut dentine.
It boasts a shelf life of two years from the date of manufacture, ensuring reliable and consistent performance in dental applications.
Features:
