Ready to use, radiopaque, premixed, calcium hydroxide paste with barium sulphate is a creamy paste which is used as a liner or as a temporary dressing. Owing to its high alkalinity (PH12)properties, it chemically neutralizes the acids from cements, and prevents them from reaching the pulp. Calcium Hydroxide Paste does not affect the quality of the filling when applied in thin layer and dried with an air jet so as to speed up its dehydration. It reduces the hypersensitivity of the dentine and helps the neoformation of secondary dentine.

 INDICATIONS:

•  Pulp capping
• Capping after pulpotomy
• Dentine – protective and neutralizing cavity liner
