Dentsply Barricaid Periodontal Surgical Dressing

• Visible Light Cure Periodontal Surgical Dressing is an advanced concept in the protection of periodontal surgical sites.
• This single-component, light-activated periodontal dressing eliminates the time-consuming mixing of pastes.
• Furthermore, Barricaid® gives the clinician total control over the placement and setting of the periodontal packing material.
• Curing of the material can be accomplished with a visible light-curing unit to form a non-brittle, but firm, protective elastic covering.
• Incremental additions of the material, which bond adherently, can be made in the mouth without any special prior surface preparation.
• The dressing is tinted pink, is tasteless, and has a translucent character which allows for superior esthetics, as well as site monitoring.
