Prevest Calplus, a calcium hydroxide-based intracanal medicament, is commonly utilized for root canal disinfection. Once the infection resolves, thorough removal of Calplus is essential before obturation. Residual medicament may impede sealer penetration, compromising adhesion and risking potential leakage. Effective removal techniques involve irrigation with solutions like EDTA or NaOCl, along with ultrasonic activation of endodontic files, aiding in the dissolution and flushing of Calplus from the canal.

Prevest Calplus is composed of Calcium Hydroxide, Iodoform, and Silicon Oil.

No, Prevest Calplus is a non-hardening paste. It remains solubilized, allowing the calcium hydroxide to stay active in the root canal for an extended period.

The addition of iodoform enhances radiopacity, making it easier for dental professionals to monitor the placement of the paste during procedures. Iodoform also contributes to the antimicrobial properties of the paste.

Prevest Calplus can be used for direct and indirect pulp capping, pulpotomy, apexifications, hard tissue formations, temporary or permanent filling in infected root canals, treatment of root resorption, acid protection during the etch technique, and as a cavity liner under various filling materials.

Prevest Calplus is a premixed calcium hydroxide paste containing iodoform. It is designed to offer improved radiopacity and antimicrobial properties for various dental applications.
