Calcium hydroxide paste containing iodoform- IFU

Product Description:

Filpex is a pre-mixed calcium hydroxide paste containing iodoform. The addition of iodoform enhances the radiopacity and provides the paste with antibacterial properties. The single-use disposable injection tip allows for easy delivery into the root canal while preventing cross-contamination between patients. Its oil-based formulation ensures long-lasting durability in the root canal, making it suitable for use as a filler in primary teeth after pulpectomy.

Components:

1 x 2g Syringe
3 x Specialized Tips

Indications:

Root filling material for primary teeth
Pulp capping and pulpotomy
Temporary root filling in adult teeth
Inducing hard tissue barrier formation

Instructions for Use:

After preparing the root canal, rinse and dry it thoroughly. Attach the disposable tip to the syringe and insert it into the root canal up to 3-4 mm from the apex. Gently inject the appropriate amount of calcium hydroxide paste into the canal while withdrawing the syringe. Use a sterile cotton pellet to remove excess paste from the pulp chamber. To protect the product from moisture after use, remove the needle tip and cap the syringe.
If the paste is difficult to extrude, trim a small portion of the needle tip using scissors.

Clinical Tips:

This product is intended for dental use only by professionals.
Avoid using the product on patients who are allergic to any of its ingredients.
In adult patients, avoid leaving the paste in place for more than one month.
Test the paste on a pad or glass slab before using it on the patient to get familiar with the pressure needed for extrusion. Excessive force may lead to over-extrusion.
Filpex is not suitable as a final root canal filling for permanent teeth.
Avoid overfilling beyond the apex.
The paste will dry upon exposure to air, so replace the needle tip and close the syringe after use to extend the product’s shelf life.

Warnings:

Avoid contact with skin and eyes.
If the product comes into contact with tissue, rinse the area thoroughly with plenty of water.
If the product splashes into the eyes, rinse with water for 15 minutes and seek immediate medical attention.
