Hemostatic Agents

Hemostatic Agent for Gingival Bleeding Control Before Impressions

A prepared tooth that’s still oozing at the gumline can ruin an otherwise good impression, since blood mixing into the material obscures the margin the lab needs to see clearly. This hemostatic agent, formulated with 25 percent aluminum chloride, is applied directly to the gingival sulcus to constrict tissue and stop minor bleeding, giving a clean, dry field before an impression or bonding step.

Because it’s epinephrine-free, this solution is a practical choice for patients with cardiovascular sensitivities or high blood pressure who might not be good candidates for products that rely on epinephrine for hemostasis. The solution is also clear and non-staining, so it won’t discolor tissue or restorative materials the way some ferric sulfate agents can. 3D Dental supplies this hemostatic agent for practices that need reliable, gentle bleeding control during crown, bridge, and bonding procedures.
