Contains
Glutaraldehyde, Fluoride and Water
Pulpdent
Dentin Desensitizer
contains 5% glutaraldehyde in water. It can be applied
to all dentin surfaces, including cavity, crown and
inlay preparations and cervical areas, as a desensitizing
agent.
Pulpdent
Dentin Desensitizer
is not a dentin primer; however, it can be used in conjunction
with adhesives and composites, as well as with provisional
and permanent traditional dental cements. It does not
interfere with bonding techniques and does not affect
bond strengths of adhesives, composites and resin cements.
Fluoride
is added to the Desensitizer to enhance the stability
of the solution. Pulpdent makes no claim as to the therapeutic
benefits of the fluoride or the antimicrobial effect
of glutaraldehyde.
