WATERTOWN, Massachusetts--Pulpdent Corporation has introduced Prep-Rite RC, a 17 percent Viscous EDTA Gel that is easily picked up on an endodontic file to facilitate preparation of the root canal.
Prep-Rite is the latest addition to Pulpdent's range of EDTA products for endodontics.
Prep-Rite RC is a canal lubricant and chelating agent that has been buffered to a neutral pH. It effectively decalcifies canals and facilitates removing dentin from the canal walls, and it acts as a lubricant to minimize the binding and breaking of files. Prep-Rite is water-based and easily rinses out of the canal using traditional irrigating solutions.
Pulpdent also manufactures 17 percent EDTA liquid solution and File-Rite EDTA semi-gel, both of which are syringed directly into the canal. Prep-Rite RC is picked up on a file using the traditional technique.
Prep-Rite RC is available in a kit containing 4 x 5 gram syringes. The suggested retail price is $27.50. It is available through your dental dealer. For technical assistance call Pulpdent at (800) 343-4342 or visit Pulpdent.
