Where there is a deep cavity and the dentine is hypersensitive, such as in the instance of small pulp exposure, a practitioner can use Ledermix dental cement as a pulp capping agent with confidence in the efficacy of the treatment. For ease of use, Ledermix dental cement can be prepared with a choice of hardeners. Simply by mixing one drop of the appropriate ‘fast set’ or ‘slow set’ hardener with the Ledermix powder, the practitioner can quickly create the necessary cream for application. For reliable, effective and practical solutions to the challenge of hypersensitive dentition or pulp exposures, Ledermix dental cement is the ideal medicament.

Easy to pack, with great cavity adaptation Dr Mary Brummitt of the Stangrove Court Dental Practice in Kent has been trialing the latest innovation from DENTSPLY – Smart Dentin Replacement™ (SDR™). SDR™ is the revolutionary new flowable posterior composite base that offers bulk-filling of up to 4mm without the need for layering, as Dr. Brummitt has discovered:“I found Smart Dentin Replacement very user-friendly, thanks to the Compula® syringe- style tip which allows accurate placement.“The material is easy to pack and adapts well to the cavity.” A further advantage is that the shade of SDR™ matches that of dentine, making for a better aesthetic finish - something which Dr Brummit has noticed. “SDR™ is a simple and efficient product that I will continue to use when doing posterior restorations.” Investing in better dentistry is a key element of DENTSPLY’s vision to revolutionize the profession.
