Hydcal – Calcium Hydroxide Cement

Hydcal is produced from calcium hydroxide through the reaction of two components: base paste and catalyst paste. It is used for cavity lining and pulp protection in restorative procedures, without inhibiting the polymerization of composite resins. It has a high resistance to dissolution by phosphoric acid, is produced in a color similar to that of dentin, to prevent it from influencing the color of restorative materials, and is radiopaque.
