PARIS, France: According to Produits Dentaires, its MAP (Micro-Apical Placement) System, provides a unique and efficient method for precisely placing endodontic filling materials by orthograde or retrograde approaches. At the ADF 2018 congress , the company is showcasing the professional system, considered the product of choice for perforation, root-end filling, pulp capping and retro-obturation therapies, Produits Dentaires said.

The MAP System is available in three kits (Intro, Universal and Surgical), which each contain a Swiss-quality stainless-steel syringe with a bayonet catch designed for a large range of exchangeable application needles. The respective kits also contain the relevant needles, reusable medical-grade polyoxymethylene plungers, NiTi cleaning curettes for removing material residue inside the needles.

The Classic single-angle needles are designed for precise non-surgical endodontic procedures, while the Surgery triple-angle needles are optimal for surgical endodontic procedures. The NiTi Memory Shape needles can be manually shaped to any required curvature and adjust easily to the shape of the root canal for effective placement of repair materials. Because the NiTi Memory Shape needles are versatile, they are ideal for orthograde and retrograde therapies.

In combination with PD MTA White, the company’s exclusive mineral trioxide aggregate cement developed for placement with the MAP System, dental professionals can achieve durable and predictable outcomes for their patients, Produits Dentaires said.

For more information about Produits Dentaires’s products, dental professionals are invited to visit the company’s booth (#1S12) at ADF or visit www.pdsa.ch.
