Apexdent filling material: composition, indications, instructions

Apexdent is a filling adhesive paste that fills tooth canals. It is an X-ray contrast material that is used to seal inflamed and infected difficult-to-pass areas of the canal.

Apexdent is produced in the form of a homogeneous paste with calcium hydroxide, which can be with or without iodoform.

Modern material has been approved by many leading experts.

Release form and composition

Apexdent without iodoform contains:

• calcium hydroxide for dental tissue regeneration;
• calcium phosphate, which actively stimulates the formation of osteoblasts, is intended for the mineralization of dental bone tissue;
• X-ray contrast filler;
• a paste agent that makes it easy to fill small cavities.

Apexdent with iodoform contains 40% of this substance, which ensures a long-term antibacterial effect and prevents re-infection of the tooth.

The filling material is produced in the form of a homogeneous paste, completely ready for use. Packaged in syringes of 2 g. The kit may include special curved needles (5 pcs.).

This material belongs to the long-hardening type. Certified and complies with GOST R 51059-97. Produced by VladMiVa (Russia).

Basic properties

Due to its high pH level (˃12), calcium hydroxide has a long-lasting antiseptic effect. The use of Apexdent promotes:

• long-term bactericidal effect on inflamed dental tissues and the periapical area;
• creating a strong dentinal barrier and creating conditions for the formation of a tooth root (within 3 – 6 months the apical root hole is formed);
• restoration of hard dental tissues.

After using dental paste with iodoform for chronic periodontitis, within the next 6 to 14 months it becomes possible to finally fill the canals.

If the filling paste was carried beyond the apex during operation, it gradually dissolves. The patient will not experience pain or discomfort.

Scope of application

Apexdent is suitable for the treatment of pulpless teeth (where the nerve has been removed). Paste without iodoform is prescribed for:

• apexification of the tooth (the process of formation of the apex of the dental root), when the process of root growth is not completed;
• closing the wide opening of the apex;
• treatment of pulpitis (inflammation of dental tissues, nerve);
• treatment of chronic periodontitis of molars in which the roots are formed;
• filling canals (difficult to pass) after pulp removal.

A paste containing iodoform is used for similar processes occurring in diseased dental tissues.

The specific difference is that it is more often prescribed for the treatment of infected canals. Indicated for chronic periodontitis.

Iodoform-containing paste is also widely used for filling dental canals. The product is used for:

• treatment of chronic inflammation of the tooth shell;
• bone resorption (destruction of bone tissue) and perforation of the tooth root;
• infection of dental canals;
• damage to the nerve and surrounding tissues;
• unformed tooth root apex.

The material is used in the periapical (near-apical) zones in combination with gutta-percha pins.

Mode of application

If the paste (without iodoform) is used in the treatment of periodontitis, the procedure is as follows:

• the product is placed into the prepared and cleaned canal using a canal filler and left for 7 – 10 days;
• isolate with a tampon, place a temporary filling, sealing the tooth;
• within the prescribed period, the paste is removed, the channels are cleaned and washed with a special composition (sodium hypochlorite);
• dried, a new portion of material is introduced (for 1 month).

This procedure is carried out every 3 months, for 6 to 15 months. Three months after the first treatment, an x-ray is taken to evaluate the effect. Then, depending on the results, a permanent filling is placed or therapy is continued.

Treatment of pulpitis with unfinished growth of the root apex of the tooth involves:

• performing pulpotomy with anesthesia;
• rinsing the canals;
• direct coating of treated pulp material;
• compacting the paste with a tampon, installing a temporary filling;
• replacing the drug after 3–4 weeks with a fresh portion;
• X-ray control, repeating the course until the final formation of the root;
• installation of a permanent filling.

When using Apexdent for apexification of a tooth, the following is performed:

• traditional dental canal treatment;
• washing with a special composition without pressure;
• drying and introducing filling paste;
• installation of a temporary filling followed by an x-ray;
• replacement with a new portion (after 3 – 4 weeks).

Approximately 3 months from the start of treatment, the condition of the tooth root is determined. Depending on the results, treatment is continued or the canal is finally closed with a permanent filling.

Possibility of use

If a version of the paste without iodoform is used to treat periodontitis, then the following plan should be followed:

• Substances are added to a canal that is ready and free of dirt and infection in advance and stored there for a week.
• Then they are separated with cotton wool and a filling is installed for a certain time, thereby preventing the tooth from becoming infected.
• After several days, the paste is cleaned and washed with a disinfectant.
• Dry and add the following paste, now for a month

Now this procedure is repeated every three months, for from six months to 1.5 years. At the end of the first three months, an x-ray of the tooth is taken and a decision is made to continue the treatment further or to finish it.

Pulpitis, if the apex of the root tooth is not closed, is treated as follows:

1. They perform a pulpotomy and do not forget about pain relief
2. Cleaning the channels
3. Cover the treated pulp with paste
4. Seal and place a temporary seal
5. Then they wait a month and add a new batch of pasta
6. Look at the x-ray, repeat step 5 until the root is closed
7. At the final stage, a permanent filling is installed

How does apexification of teeth take place?

1. First the channel is processed
2. Then washed with a special liquid
3. Dry and add filling paste
4. Place a filling for a specific time
5. And they change the entered content every month

Then an x-ray of the tooth is also taken, and if it returns to normal, a permanent filling is placed.

How to work with a syringe and the drug

Intolerance to Apexdent is possible, especially in people who are allergic to iodine.

After use, you need to remove the needle and tip from the syringe, then wash it and close it properly. The main thing is not to allow air to get inside, otherwise the paste will harden before use.

Each product comes with instructions for use, which should be read carefully.
