Resin-Modified Calcium Silicate Pulp Protectant/Liner
TheraCal LC is a part of BISCO’s award winning THERA Family. It is a light-cured resin-modified calcium silicate-filled liner designed for use in direct and indirect pulp capping and as a protective liner under composites, amalgams, cements, and other base materials. TheraCal LC performs as a barrier and protectant of the dental pulpal complex. Its precise placement allows for its use in deep cavity preparations and its light cured set permits immediate placement of the restorative material. TheraCal LC’s calcium release stimulates hydroxyapatite and secondary dentin bridge formation, and the alkaline pH that it generates promotes healing and apatite formation. Additionally TheraCal LC is moisture tolerant and radiopaque for placement under restorative materials and cements.
4-pack of TheraCal LC 1g syringes can perform approximately 48 pulp capping/liner applications (12 applications per 1g syringe).
Unique Benefits:
- Pulp Capping Agent: Designed for use in direct and indirect pulp capping.
- Calcium Release.
- Radiopaque: For easy detection on radiographs.
- Easy Syringe Application: Syringe delivery system offers easy placement of the material.
- Protective Liner: Performs as an ideal protective liner under composites, amalgams, cements, and other base materials.
- Alkaline Ph: Calcium-silicate fillers provide both calcium release and alkalinity.
- Light Cured material.
- Time Saver: Can be directly applied to the pulp exposure and be used as a liner in the same prep, with no need for two separate products.
- Protective Seal: Significant calcium release leads to protective seal.
- Insulation: Forms a protective barrier to protect the pulp from thermal changes.
- Low Solubility: Low water solubility and will not wash out over time.
Clinical Significance:
- The proprietary formulation of TheraCal LC consists of tri-calcium silicate particles in a hydrophilic monomer that provides significant calcium release making it a uniquely stable and durable material as a liner or base
Pro Tip:
Apply a thin layer of <1mm thickness on moist dentin and light-cure for 20 seconds to prevent TheraCal LC from flaking off.
