Waldent Caries Detector - 1 x 10ml Bottle
Waldent Caries Detector is a highly effective disclosing agent used in conservative dentistry. It assists in identifying and removing the decalcified, infected outer layer of carious dentin, allowing for thorough and targeted excavation. By selectively staining only the irreversibly damaged tooth structure, it helps preserve as much healthy tissue as possible and supports precision during caries removal.
Features:
- Quick and easy to use
- No adverse effects
- Preserves healthy tooth structure
- Clearly stains caries-affected dentin red during cavity preparation
- Does not stain remineralizable or healthy dentin
Indications:
- Visualization and detection of carious dentin during cavity preparation
