Description
SDS ENDO Zinc Oxide Powder is a high-purity material used in dentistry for creating temporary dressings. When mixed with eugenol, it forms zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) cement, which is widely used for indirect pulp capping and temporary cementation of crowns and bridges. This versatile material is highly compatible with both hard and soft tissues in the mouth and is valued for its obtundant or sedative effect on the pulp, offering relief and protection during dental treatments.
