Ultradent has released UltraSeal XT hydro, a hydrophilic pit-and-fissure sealant.
UltraSeal XT hydro's hydrophilic properties eliminate the need to pretreat the tooth with a drying agent, allowing for faster treatments, according to the company. It also fluoresces under a black light, making it easy to check retention at the time of placement and at subsequent visits.
UltraSeal XT hydro's adhesive technology securely bonds to enamel, increasing marginal retention and reducing microleakage, Ultradent said.
UltraSeal XT hydro is bisphenol A (BPA)-free and comes in natural and opaque white shades.
