Ultradent™ Consepsis™ 2% Chlorhexidine Antibacterial Solution Ultradent™ Consepsis™ 2% Chlorhexidine Antibacterial Solution

Consepsis™ 2% Chlorhexidine Antibacterial Solution is recommended for procedural endodontic disinfection, as a final endodontic rinse prior to canal obturation, and prior to pulp capping. Consepsis solution should be used after smear layer removal for canal disinfection.

• Provides the longest and most effective antimicrobial activity
• Reduces risk of recurrent caries
• Reduces potential for postoperative sensitivity
• Increases bond strengths with dentin bonding agents
• May ensure long-term bond strengths by inhibiting MMP action in the hybrid layers
• Free of emollients that interfere with bond strength

For endodontic use, Consepsis should be used after smear layer removal for canal disinfection. Sodium hypochlorite and EDTA solutions should be rinsed and removed prior to using Consepsis solution.

Note: DO NOT mix Consepsis solution (or any chlorhexidine solution) and ChlorCid solution (sodium hypochlorite) in the canal as a harmful brown precipitate will form.

For bonding uses, use Consepsis to thoroughly clean and disinfect the preparation prior to sealing and restoring.

Use Consepsis solution prior to DBA application to disinfect root surface with sensitive root treatment or when bonding.

Indications for Use

Consepsis antibaceterial solution is recommended for procedural endodontic disinfection, as a final endodontic rinse prior to canal obturation, and prior to pulp capping. Consepsis solution should be used after smear layer removal for canal disinfection.

Consepsis solution can also be used to thoroughly clean and disinfect the preparation prior to sealing and restoring. Use prior to crown cementation, luting (provisional and/or permanent), and direct restorative placement, as well as procedural endodontic disinfection. It can also be used to passively control nonhyperemic bleeding.
