EZ-Fill and EZ-Fill Xpress feature a patented bi-directional spiral and epoxy root canal cement system that drives cement laterally instead of apically to ensure thorough coating along the walls of the root canal and lateral canals. This technique results in a more efficient seal by dramatically increasing cement to canal wall interface.
Features & Benefits:
- Patented bi-directional spiral:
- Thoroughly coats the walls of the root canal and lateral canals without significant cement being forced apically.
- The reverse apical spirals rotate in an unwinding direction out of the canal, preventing binding.
- Allows a coronal path of exit for excess cement, thus preventing it from going over the apex.
- Single gutta percha point technique
- Additional cement is utilized, ensuring a proper seal.
- The cement works synergistically with the gutta percha to assure a complete seal.
- No lateral stress on the root
- Lateral or vertical condensation is usually not needed with the EZ-Fill technique.
- Room temperature obturation
- Unlike thermoplastic techniques, there is no shrinkage upon cooling.
- The flow of cement at room temperature into lateral canals is superior to thermoplastic gutta percha.
- Very Radiopaque
- Clear x-ray viewing.
- Non-eugenol, epoxy resin chemistry
- Bonds chemically and physically to the dentin and gutta percha.
- No shrinkage: In fact, mild expansion to assure an intimate fit.
- Hydrophobic nature means highly resistant to water degradation to ensure a long lasting seal.
- Easily removed for post-hole preparation.
- Compatible with all bonding agents and composites.
- Epoxy resin chemistry is backed by 50 years of clinical success.
- Subsequent composite techniques may be performed immediately.
- Proven Long-Term Clinical Success
- Results of a two year recall study show a two year recall study found a success rate of 94.1%
- User friendly technique
- Fills canals quickly without sacrificing quality.
- Economical system
- No need for expensive thermoplastic equipment.
