MTA vpt Powder/Liquid Set
MTA vpt offers a cost-effective biomaterial for everyday use that is specifically designed for treating the crown pulp and is ideally suited for use in vital pulp therapy (VPT) for deep carious lesions or trauma. It can also reliably cover residual carious dentin that remains after caries management or selective or stepwise caries removal. MTA vpt releases calcium and hydroxide ions, which stimulate the body’s own regenerative processes and the formation of tertiary dentin. The resulting high pH value is known for its bacteriostatic effect and supports remineralization. The main component of the product is tricalcium silicate. MTA vpt is free of bismuth oxide and iron-containing compounds. The material’s low solubility and particularly high compressive strength promote a durable restoration.
Indications:
- Underlayment cement for all restorative materials
- Indirect pulp capping
- Direct pulp capping
- Pulp management following vital amputation
Advantages:
- MTA for daily practice – biocompatible, monomer-free
- High pH (12) – known for its bacteriostatic effect
- Release of calcium and hydroxide ions – promotes the formation of tertiary dentin and remineralization
- Reliable pulp protection – mineralizes to form a bacteria-impermeable seal
- Time-efficient – immediate further processing through pressure-free layering
- Easy to use – application with standard instruments or directly from the capsule
- No product-related discoloration – free of bismuth oxide and iron-containing compounds
- Radiopaque (290% Al)
