3M™ Vanish™ XT Extended Contact Varnish 12148

Providing immediate protection of tooth surfaces, Vanish™ XT Extended Contact Varnish is a light-cured site-specific enamel and dentin coating. Offering protection beyond the coating, this tooth sensitivity treatment helps prevent demineralization and white spot lesions. Vanish XT Extended Contact Varnish is virtually invisible on the tooth surface and releases fluoride, calcium and phosphate. In addition to protecting exposed dentin, Vanish™ XT Extended Contact Varnish has been shown to both penetrate and seal tubules, which provides immediate relief from hypersensitivity associated with the movement of fluid through open tubules. Laboratory testing also demonstrates that this protective coating reduces dentin permeability by 88%.

• Protects exposed root surfaces: Creating an immediate layer of protection, this enamel coating is designed to relieve dental sensitivity.
• Releases fluoride, calcium and phosphate: Provides extended fluoride release and is replenished each time a patient uses a fluoridated product.
• Coating remains on the tooth for six months or longer: In addition to getting the benefits of extended fluoride delivery, your patients will enjoy protection from demineralization and acid erosion for six months or longer.
• Moisture-tolerant: Root surface requires no drying or pre-treatment before applying dental coating. Offering fluoride, calcium and phosphate release, Vanish™ XT Extended Contact Varnish is a resin-modified glass ionomer coating that gets recharged every time the patient brushes with fluoride toothpaste or uses any fluoridated product. So, not only do your patients get the protection of a physical barrier with an effective hypersensitivity treatment, but they also get the benefits of long-term fluoride release. Vanish XT Extended Contact Varnish is easy to use and does not require the use of a rubber dam. Clean the tooth surface. Rinse with water. Remove excess, pooled water. Dispense onto mixing pad. Mix for 15 seconds (2.5-minutes working time). Apply thin layer to tooth surface. Light cure.
