Belodez 3% Sodium Hypochlorite Gel – VladMiVa

Belodez 3% sodium hypochlorite gel from VladMiVa is a superior endodontic irrigant designed for effective root canal disinfection and debridement. This stabilized gel formulation offers unique advantages over traditional sodium hypochlorite solutions.

Key Properties & Benefits:

• Effective Organic Matter Dissolution: Belodez 3% effectively dissolves both vital and necrotic dentin, removing organic debris and promoting thorough canal cleaning. Lower concentrations (up to 1%) target necrotic tissue and pus, while higher concentrations (like the 3% formulation) are used for dissolving remaining pulp tissue after vital extirpation. For more recalcitrant cases such as mumified pulp following devitalization or thermocoagulation, higher concentrations (5.2% and 10%) may be considered, but with strict time limitations (no more than 60 seconds).
• Broad-Spectrum Antimicrobial Action: Belodez exhibits potent bactericidal activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, fungi, and viruses. This broad-spectrum efficacy is achieved through chloramine formation (via chlorine substitution of amino groups in proteins) and the alkaline pH (10.0-12.0). The gel’s formulation minimizes cytotoxicity at the apex.
• Superior Handling & Viscosity: The gel’s viscous consistency ensures controlled application and minimizes spillage, particularly beneficial during the treatment of maxillary teeth. Its controlled flow prevents uncontrolled irrigation and potential tissue irritation.
• Enhanced Efficacy with EDTA: For optimal results, combine Belodez with EDTA-containing products (like EndoZhi No. 2 or EndoGel). This synergistic combination chelates dentin calcium, creating a more porous structure, improving canal penetration, and enhancing the adhesion of root canal filling materials.
• Versatile Concentration: A 3.3% solution, suitable for various applications, can be easily prepared by diluting the 10% solution with distilled water in a 1:2 ratio.
• Temperature Dependent Activity: At 37°C, low-concentration solutions (0.5-1%) exhibit disinfection rates comparable to higher concentrations (3-5.2%).
