WATERTOWN, MA:  September 18, 2008— Pulpdent Corporation has introduced Forendo™ Paste, a non-setting, premixed calcium hydroxide paste with iodoform for root canal therapy. Forendo Paste is a temporary or permanent endodontic filling material that promotes healing and inhibits bacterial growth in the root canal.
 
Forendo Paste contains calcium hydroxide and iodoform in a silicone oil base. It has a pH greater than 12 and is radiopaque. The paste is bactericidal and bacteriostatic. It is recommended for routine use as a disinfecting root canal dressing between office visits to prevent flare-ups and for treatment of infected root canals, abscesses, periapical lesions, perforations, exudation, root resorption, traumatic injuries, and for apexification and apexogenesis.  Forendo Paste can be used alone as a temporary canal disinfectant, in conjunction with gutta percha for permanent filling, and for vital pulpectomies in deciduous teeth.
 
Forendo Paste is a new addition to Pulpdent’s clinically proven range of calcium hydroxide pastes for root canal therapy that also includes Pulpdent Paste, TempCanal and Multi-Cal.  It is available through dental dealers.
 Pulpdent manufactures high-quality products for the dental profession, including adhesives, composites, sealants, cements, etching gels, calcium hydroxide products, endodontic specialties, and bonding accessories.  For more information, call 800-343-4342 or visit http://www.pulpdent.com.
