QED's cost-effective range of irrigants and related products are extremely useful for every practitioner with an interest in endodontics.
They offer a comprehensive range which includes chlorhexidine 2% for use as the final irrigation step for long lasting cleaning and disinfection of root canals; sodium hypochlorite 2% and <6% which are used for the irrigation, debridement and disinfection of root canals during and after instrumentation; citric acid which is recommended as a root canal irrigant/cleaner and conditioner – this mild chelating agent can also be used to dissolve calcium hydroxide from canals; EDTA which facilitates the removal of the smear layer and dentine 'mud', enhancing disinfection and preparing the dentine walls for advanced adhesion of filling materials; eucalyptus oil plus many other very useful products.
QED's extremely cost-effective irrigant range is just one of the additions detailed within their endodontic catalogue and featured on www.qedendo.co.uk, the online version.
