EDTA 17%

EDTA is a well-known chelating solution in endodontics.

EDTA is used during the final irrigation phase, which begins after the shaping is completed.

EDTA is used to dissolve the mineral phase of the smear layer to release bacteria that may have been trapped in the debris created by canal instrumentation.

After aspiration of the hypochlorite present in the canal, EDTA is injected, without pressure, then left in place for at least 2 minutes. The solution can be activated with a gutta percha cone made with a pumping movement or by any other means of activation. We recommend using the Z Irrigator for example.

After two minutes, the EDTA is sucked up in turn, then a new rinse with sodium hypochlorite completes the disinfection of the canal.

EDTA is also recommended in revitalization procedures with the aim of releasing growth factors embedded in dentin.

The solution is sold in a 200m bottle , delivered with a syringe and a Luer Lock cap which allows the solution to be taken directly from the bottle.
