Premier® RC-Prep™ Root Canal Preparation Cream

Premier® RC-Prep™: The Standard for Endodontic Excellence

Premier® RC-Prep™ is a cornerstone of modern endodontics, a trusted and highly-effective root canal preparation cream that has been a gold standard for over 50 years. This triple-action formula combines the power of a chelating agent (EDTA) with a lubricating medium (urea-peroxide) to simplify and enhance root canal procedures. By softening calcified canals and lubricating instrumentation, RC-Prep™ helps clinicians navigate the root canal system with greater ease and precision, leading to a more thorough and predictable debridement.

Three-in-One Action for Unmatched Performance RC-Prep™’s unique formulation provides three critical functions in a single application, streamlining the endodontic process.

• Chelation: The EDTA component acts as a powerful chelating agent, reacting with the calcium in dentin to soften the canal walls. This makes it easier to shape and enlarge the canal, even in the presence of calcification.
• Lubrication: The urea-peroxide provides a smooth, lubricating action that reduces friction between the instrument and the dentinal walls. This not only eases instrumentation but also helps to prevent instrument breakage, a common concern in endodontic procedures.
• Debridement: The effervescence created by the urea-peroxide when it comes into contact with sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) helps to lift and flush away dentinal debris and pulp tissue. This cleaning action is crucial for removing the smear layer and ensuring a clean, prepared canal for obturation.

Key Features for a Successful Endodontic Procedure RC-Prep™ is designed with a focus on ease of use and maximum efficacy, making it an indispensable tool for every endodontist and general practitioner.

• Convenient and Consistent: The creamy consistency is easy to apply directly into the canal using a syringe or file. The pre-mixed formula ensures a consistent ratio of ingredients, eliminating the guesswork of manual mixing.
• Reduces Instrument Breakage: The lubricating properties of RC-Prep™ significantly reduce the stress on endodontic files, especially in curved or narrow canals, thereby minimizing the risk of instrument separation.
• Enhances Irrigation: When used with sodium hypochlorite, the effervescent action of RC-Prep™ enhances the cleaning power of the irrigant, helping to remove debris from the most remote areas of the canal system.
• Time-Tested Reliability: RC-Prep™ has a long-standing reputation for being a reliable, effective product that contributes to successful endodontic outcomes.
