Coltene Vitality Control Endo – Frost

Features

Description

Coltene ENDO-FROST spray is used to ice cotton pellets to test the normal response of nerve fibers by stimulating the nerve endings of the pulp.As a result of this test, the vitality (existing blood flow) of the tooth can be made.

Cold thermal tests work by causing contraction of the dentinal fluid within the dentine tubules; this rapid outward flow of movement results in ydrodynamic forcesacting on the A? nerve fibres. There is a sharp sensation, lasting for up to a few seconds after the cold stimulus has been removed from the tooth.Cold tests appear to be more effective in assessing nerve status than heat tests

The Endo Frost spray is odorless and has a spray nozzle for precise application on the pellet. Roeke Endo-Frost Spray works by controlling pain associated with injections, minor surgical procedures and other procedures. It can also be used temporarily to relieve pain from minor injuries during exercise.

Do not spray in mouth!

Key Specifications

Composition:

• Ethyl chloride
• Propane/Butane

Packaging

• 1 x Bottle of 200ml
• 1 x Spray tube

Direction of use

The Odontotest orEndo-Ice testinvolves:

1. No response = non-vital
2. Greater than 10 seconds of lingering pain = substantial pulpitis

Cold spray applied to a cotton pellet and then held on a tooth for 5-10 seconds. Assuming pain is produced by this cold stimulation, if the pain lingers for more than 10 seconds after the pellet is removed this is considered evidence of irreversible pulpitis.

Precautions :

• Extremely flammable aerosol.
• Pressurised container: May burst if heated
• Keep away from heat/sparks/open flames/hot surfaces.
• Do not spray on an open flame or other ignition source.
• Pressurized container: Do not pierce or burn, even after use.
• Protect from sunlight. Do not expose hot temperatures exceeding 50 ?C/ 122 ?F.
• Keep out of reach of children.
