Ammdent Root Plus MTA

Ammdent Root Plus MTA

• Calcium oxide: Promotes tissue Biocompatibility.
• Aggregated oxides: Great compressive strength.
• High radiopacity: Higher radiopacity than that of dentin, allowing excellent radiographic visualization.

Ammdent Root Plus MTA powder is consisting of very fine hydrophilic particles of several mineral oxides.

After contact with ROOT+PLUS liquid, it forms a gel hardens to an impermeable barrier.

 Composition :

• The powder is consisting of very fine hydrophilic particles of several mineral oxides
• After contact with ROOT+PLUS liquid, it forms a gel hardens to an impermeable barrier.

Indication : 

• Repair of root perforations during root canal therapy.
• Root end filling(retrograde).
• Root capping.
• Root end filling(orthograde).

 Advantages:

• Anti-microbial activity.
• Non-Toxic & Non-mutagenic.
• Vasoconstrictive. Beneficial for hemostasis most important in pulp-capping.
• Excellent long-lasting sealability.
• Decreases solubility.
• Ability to set even in moisture or blood.
• No Dimensional Changes in the setting.
• Minimum micro linkage through long setting time prevents setting time, prevents setting shrinkage.
• High success rate.
• Alkaline Ph, Which may impart an antibacterial effect on some facultative bacteria.
• It can induce the formation of dentin, cementum, bone and periodontal ligament.
• Excellent biocompatibility and appropriate mechanical properties.
• Produces and artificial barrier, against which an obturating material can be condensed.
• More radio-opaque than Ca(OH)
