Ivoclar Vivadent Cervitec PLUS - Manual

Description
Cervitec
® Plus is a varnish that protects sensitive dentin in the case of
exposed cervicals. Chlorhexidine and thymol are the antimicrobial
components in Cervitec Plus. They protect the tooth surface by reducing
bacterial activity.
Composition
Ethanol, water, acrylate copolymer, vinyl acetate
copolymer and Chlorhexidine diacetate
1 %
Thymol 1 %
Indication
– Protection of exposed root surfaces
– Treatment of hypersensitive cervicals
– Reduction of bacterial activity on tooth surfaces
Contraindication
If patients are known to be allergic to any of the ingredients in Cervitec Plus,
the material should not be applied.
Warning
In rare, isolated cases, chlorhexidine may cause allergic reactions.
Side effects
In individual cases, contact with the mucous membrane may result in short-
term, reversible irritation.
Chlorhexidine may cause reversible discolouration of the tooth structure and
restorations.
Application
Cervitec Plus can be used for patients of all age groups and is professionally
applied by dentists, dental hygienists or dental prophylaxis assistants.
Generally, Cervitec Plus is applied every three months. If intensive treatment
is required, however, the varnish may also be applied more frequently. One
Free Stand Single Dose Cervitec Plus is enough for the treatment of one set of
teeth. One tube is enough for about 20 to 30 sets of teeth.
Step-by-step application procedure
1. Clean tooth surfaces thoroughly.
2. Dry with cotton rolls and air syringe.
3. a) Single Dose:
Remove the foil from the Single Dose and apply the varnish directly from
the Single Dose.
b) Tube:
Press out 3 drops into, for example, a dappen dish and reseal the tube.
Hold the tube in a vertical position with the cap facing upwards for opening
and closing. For pressing out the contents, hold the opening vertically down.
4. Apply a thin coat of varnish by means of a Vivadent applicator or suitable
brush (diagram); in proximal areas, Cervitec Plus is applied with dental floss.
5. Let the varnish dry. The varnish can be dispersed with air.
6. Remove cotton rolls after 30 seconds.
7. Ask patients not to rinse their mouth.
Tips for patients
After the application of Cervitec Plus, patients should not eat or drink for
1 hour.
Special note
Operators can eliminate the risk of cross-contamination by using
Cervitec Plus in the Single-Dose vessel for just one patient. The
applicator is for single use only and cannot be sterilized.
