Composite prosthesis: temporary fixation of elements of a composite prosthesis. Periodontology: therapeutic and protective compress for local periodontitis. The drug can be used together with other drugs in the following cases during surgical interventions in the oral cavity; protective compress on the alveoli after extractions, gingivectomy and other interventions. Method of use General explanations: when working with these preparations, use only a dry and sterile spatula; A small amount of paste taken with this tool should be given either a cone-shaped or spherical shape, depending on the subsequent use. At the same time, moisture should not come into contact with the preparation. It is necessary to carefully close the jar after each use. In the oral cavity, the paste remains plastic only for 2-3 minutes after application to the treated area. It hardens for half an hour. Maintaining sterility after tooth treatment. Placing a temporary filling: especially when filling cavities (both superficial and deep caries): dry the cavity with warm air. Seal it. To remove this seal entirely, without crushing it into separate pieces, you should use an excavator. Removing the gums from the neck of the tooth: SEPTOPAK paste is very effective for pushing back the gums at the level of the neck of the teeth, both before preparing a carious cavity in the cervical area and, especially before filling, and before taking impressions. 24-28 hours before treatment or taking impressions, place SEPTOPAK on the treated area, pushing the paste between the tooth and gum. Temporary prosthesis: To reline acrylic prostheses, drill several holes for better fixation, then apply the preparation to the base of the prosthesis - to the place where it injures or, conversely, to the place where it does not fit tightly to the mucous membrane. Introduce into the oral cavity and ask the patient to clench his teeth for five minutes. This procedure is usually well tolerated by patients. By the time the permanent denture is applied, the gums will have healed and there will be no swelling. Composite prosthesis: Temporary fixation of elements of a composite prosthesis. Mixed with a small amount of CRESOPHEN, the drug SEPTOPAK eliminates tooth sensitivity, especially when preparing non-pulpless teeth, and can also be used to fix temporary crowns. Preliminary application of Vaseline to the prepared tooth facilitates the subsequent removal of the prosthesis. Periodontology This drug is easily inserted between the tooth and the edge of the gum and pushed into the interdental space. - mixed with a few drops of the drug FLUOCAL and applied to the sensitive necks of the teeth for 48 hours, SEPTOPAK relieves pain for several months; — the drug forms a protective compress in the treatment of local periodontitis; — protects medicinal pastes from the action of saliva. The drug forms a protective compress after gingivectomy: after tamponing the treated area, a small amount of paste, which is given a cone shape and the size of the treated area, is injected, filling the interdental space. It is necessary to ensure that the bandage does not extend beyond the operated surface. For the patient’s convenience, it is recommended to change the compress every two to five days. Approximately 15% PERIDONTON can be added to the compress. Surgical interventions in the oral cavity. To use SEPTOPAK as an alveolar compress after tooth extraction, you need to prepare a ball from this drug, which will then be placed in the socket. Cover the ball with a large cotton swab and tell the patient to clench his teeth for five minutes, remove the swab and leave the paste in the hole without suturing. Remove the paste after four days, check the formation. If an infection gets into the wound, you can mix SEPTOPAK with the powder of the drug NEOCONUS (to obtain the powder NEOCONUS you need to crush it) or IODOFORM. Attention It is recommended to apply a thin layer of Vaseline to the walls of the formed cavity before inserting SEPTOPAK. This will simplify the removal of the temporary filling and subsequent filling. Packaging A jar containing 60 g of paste.

Instructions for use

You need to work with the material using a clean and sterile spatula. Before installation into the tooth cavity, the paste must be shaped into a cone or ball.

During use, the material should not be exposed to liquid. After each use, be sure to close the jar tightly.

In the oral cavity, the product can retain its plasticity properties for 2-3 minutes after application to the surface of the treated area. Complete hardening takes about 30 minutes. The product remains sterile after processing the dental unit.

Temporary filling

Features of use when installing a temporary filling:

• the paste can be used during superficial, medium or deep carious lesions;
• First, the affected cavity is cleaned, washed and dried with air;
• then the cavity is filled with material;
• Removal of the temporary filling is carried out in its entirety using an excavator.

Temporary and composite prosthetics

Scheme of use in dental prosthetics:

• To reline acrylic dentures, first of all, several holes are drilled, which will ensure a strong fastening;
• after this, Septo-pack is applied to the area of ​​the prosthesis in which it injures the gums or, conversely, does not adhere well to the surface of the oral mucosa;
• Next, the structure is inserted into the oral cavity; during this process, the patient must be asked to clamp his jaw for 5 minutes.

A septic tank is often used to temporarily secure components of a composite prosthetic structure. Before performing these procedures, it is mixed with Crezofen. This mixture prevents the occurrence of increased sensitivity, especially when cleaning non-pulpless teeth.

The paste is also used to fix temporary crowns. Before using Septopak, you need to apply a small layer of Vaseline, this will allow you to easily remove the prosthesis in the future.

The material is also used to push the gums away from the neck of the tooth. It shows increased effectiveness before cleaning a cavity with carious lesions in the cervical cavity and during taking impressions.

The product is placed a day before performing medical therapy or taking impressions on the surface of the treated area, and the paste must be installed deep between the tooth and gum.

Features of use in periodontics

During periodontitis, material is applied to the area between the gum and tooth, pushing it as deep as possible.

Features of use for periodontitis:

• the paste can be mixed with a couple of drops of Fluocal, this mixture is applied to the necks of teeth with increased sensitivity, which can reduce discomfort for 2-3 months;
• during the treatment of local periodontitis, the product is used as a protective compress;
• Septo-pack protects medications from saliva.

The product is used as a protective compress during gingivectomy. A small amount of paste is made into a cone shape and injected into the interdental area. It is important to ensure that the bandage does not extend beyond the affected area.

Features of use during operations

After tooth extraction, Septopak is used as an alveolar compress. In these cases, a ball is formed from the product and placed in the hole.

After this, place a cotton swab on the surface of the ball and ask the patient to clamp his jaw for 5 minutes. After this, the cotton swab is removed and the ball is left for 4 days. Then you need to remove the paste and check the condition of the hole, where the formation of an epithelial layer should be observed.

Before using Septopack, you need to apply a small layer of Vaseline to the surface of the walls of the formed cavity. This will simplify the subsequent removal of the temporary filling. You should be careful not to get moisture on the surface of the paste.
