Ceramir® Protect LC - Syringe
A light-cured, resin-modified Bioceramic pulp protectant for direct and indirect pulp capping. The significant release of calcium on moist tooth surfaces promotes the formation of hydroxyapatite as well as tertiary dentin, leading to safe pulp protection. A high alkaline pH level creates an environment hostile to bacteria, which is conducive to healing and protects against hypersensitivity. Ceramir Protect LC Syringe is moisture tolerant, insoluble, and radiopaque. Thanks to its thixotropic behavior and by using the supplied needle tips, Ceramir Protect LC can be applied very precisely, even in deep cavity preparations.
8 Reasons to Use Protect LC - Syringe
Calcium release and high pH value promote the formation of hydroxyapatite and tertiary dentin
Moisture tolerant
Insoluble
A high alkaline pH level creates an environment hostile to bacteria, which is conducive to healing and protects against hypersensitivity
Light-cured
Radiopaque
Good protection of the pulp in deep cavities
Ready to use one component material
When to use Ceramir Protect LC Syringe:
Direct pulp capping for any pulpal exposures, including:
Carious pulp exposure
Mechanical pulp exposure
Pulp exposure due to trauma
Indirect pulp capping in deep preparations:
Under amalgam restorations
Under Class I and Class II composite restorations
Under cements
As an alternative to calcium hydroxide
Calcium release and pH measurement
The calcium release as well as the effect on pH of Ceramir Protect LC were tested similarly to previously published data for calcium hydroxide and calcium silicate pulp capping agents. Results from the calcium release presented in Figure 1 show that Ceramir Protect LC release about twice the amount of calcium as TheraCal LC (Bisco Inc., USA), and Dycal (Dentsply Sirona, USA).

. Calcium release during water storage at 37°C for up to four weeks. Data collected by Lawson, University of Alabama at Birmingham.
Surface mineralization
Electron images of the material surface after PBS storage for one week show clear surface mineralization. A thick layer with needle-like minerals is clearly visible (Figure 2). Typically, hydroxyapatite precipitates as needles, as this is the most energetically favored way of precipitation, showing that the precipitated layer is indeed hydroxyapatite.
