Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide Desensitizer is used for dentin treatment immediately before direct composite bonding procedures and before permanent or temporary crown and bridge cementation, providing a glutaraldehyde-free 4% chlorhexidine-based liquid desensitizer that eliminates post-operative sensitivity by disinfecting, re-wetting, and sealing exposed dentin tubules at the preparation surface before the adhesive bonding or cementation step. The 4% chlorhexidine formulation delivers antimicrobial action at twice the level of glutaraldehyde-based desensitizers without the tissue irritation, potential cytotoxicity, and residual bonding interference concerns associated with glutaraldehyde chemistry, making Hemaseal & Cide the preferred glutaraldehyde-free alternative for practices that require effective dentin disinfection and desensitization as a standard pre-bonding or pre-cementation step across their restorative procedures.
The formula re-wets the etched dentin surface to restore the moist dentin condition required for optimal adhesive penetration into the dentin tubule network, improving adhesive bond strength by ensuring the collagen fiber network within the hybrid layer remains hydrated and patent for adhesive infiltration during the bonding sequence. Restorative dentists and prosthodontists who routinely treat prepared dentin with a desensitizer before composite placement and crown and bridge cementation find Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide the 4% chlorhexidine glutaraldehyde-free 10 mL bottle desensitizer for their active daily pre-bonding dentin treatment program.?Each bottle contains 10 mL of Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide Desensitizer in the standard bulk bottle format, providing the full volume for per-procedure chairside dispensing across multiple restorative appointments from a single bottle. A small volume is dispensed into a dappen dish or onto a mixing pad before application to the preparation surface with a micro-brush or cotton pellet during the procedure.
The 10 mL bottle format is available alongside the unit-dose format at 0.1 mL, 50 per pack, for practices that prefer the pre-measured single-use dose for dispensing convenience and per-dose waste reduction.?Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide Desensitizer works through its 4% chlorhexidine active ingredient chemistry where the chlorhexidine solution applied to the etched dentin surface acts simultaneously as a dentin disinfectant that eliminates residual bacteria in the preparation and exposed dentin tubules, as a dentin re-wetting agent that restores the hydrated dentin surface condition needed for optimal adhesive infiltration after acid etching, and as a desensitizer that seals the dentinal tubule openings to reduce post-operative sensitivity by limiting the hydrodynamic fluid movement within the tubules that generates the nerve stimulation response responsible for dentin hypersensitivity after crown preparation and composite restoration. The glutaraldehyde-free chemistry eliminates the tissue irritation at the gingival margin and pulpal tissue that glutaraldehyde-based desensitizers can cause during application at preparations with exposed dentin near the gingival margin or at deep preparations approaching the pulp chamber.?Restorative dentists performing Class II, Class III, and Class IV composite restorations where deep preparation margins and exposed dentin require pre-bonding desensitization find Hemaseal & Cide provides the dentin treatment step that consistently eliminates post-operative sensitivity without the tissue concerns of glutaraldehyde-based alternatives. Prosthodontists cementing porcelain and metal-ceramic crowns and bridges apply Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide to the preparation before temporary and permanent cementation to protect the preparation dentin throughout the provisional phase and at final cementation.?Advantage Dental Products Hemaseal & Cide Desensitizer gives dental practices a 4% chlorhexidine, glutaraldehyde-free, clinically proven dentin desensitizer and disinfectant that reduces post-operative sensitivity, improves adhesive bond strength, reduces micro-leakage, and delivers twice the antimicrobial activity of glutaraldehyde products across direct bonding and cementation procedures, in a 10 mL bulk bottle.
