Another dental products supplier wants the dental community to be aware that its sealants do not contain bisphenol A (BPA).
Ultradent recognized the importance of this topic early on in the development of its BPA-free dental sealant, UltraSeal XT plus, which has been on the market since 1998, the company said.
In recent weeks, both GC America and Pulpdent have issued similar statements about some of their products.
"Ultradent never has and never will use bisphenol A in any of our resin products, including our pit-and-fissure sealant, UltraSeal XT plus," said Dan E. Fischer, D.D.S., president and CEO of Ultradent, in a press release.
To ensure that Ultradent could offer a product that was free from the impurities of BPA, the company used a third-party laboratory to test the material components of UltraSeal XT plus, which resulted in a 0.00000% presence of BPA in the sealant, he added.
