A Review on Agents for Chemo-mechanical Caries Removal

Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Dental Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 3, Issue 9

Abstract

Abstract: Chemo-mechanical caries removal was introduced to dentistry as an alternative to conventional drilling methods (which was the most frequently used method for caries removal). Chemo-mechanical caries removal is primarily indicated to overcome the inconvenience of using burs and local anesthesia, hence preserving healthy dental structure and causing less discomfort to patients. It complies with the concept of the minimal invasive dentistry. Caridex, Carisolv, Papacarie and Carie-care are some of the chemo-mechanical organic caries removal agents. The review will address systems of chemo-mechanical caries removal and their advantages by comparing within the various chemo-mechanical caries removal agents. Keywords: Chemo-mechanical caries removal, Caridex, Carisolv, Papacarie, Carie-care
