Compositions, Kits And Methods For Initiating Or Accelerating Curing Of Endodontic Filler Or Sealer Compositions Placed On A Root Canal
US Patent:
7863349, Jan 4, 2011
Filed:
Sep 11, 2006
Appl. No.:
11/530787
Inventors:
Richard D. Tuttle - Layton UT, US

Assignee:
Ultradent Products, Inc. - South Jordan UT
International Classification:
A61K 6/08
US Classification:
523116, 433224
Abstract:
Activating endodontic points and dental tools are sized and configured to be placed in the root canal of a tooth. The activating endodontic points or dental tools are coated or impregnated with a curing agent that initiates or accelerates polymerization of a sealer or filler composition when placed in contact with the sealer or filler material. Curing agents can include amines that can destabilize a peroxide in the sealer or filler material to initiate or accelerate polymerization, or they may comprise the peroxide. An implement can be dipped in a concentrated curing composition just prior to inserting the implement into a root canal to contact the filler or sealer composition. Kits may include a plurality of curing agent compositions having different concentrations and/or amounts of curing agent. Kits may also include a curable resin material that includes a first part of a multi-part curing system and a curing composition that includes, as curing agent a complementary part of the curing system.
Kits And Methods For Chair-Side Coating Of Endodontic Cones
US Patent:
7833015, Nov 16, 2010
Filed:
Mar 26, 2007
Appl. No.:
11/691052

Assignee:
Ultradent Products, Inc. - South Jordan UT
International Classification:
A61C 5/04, A61C 5/02
US Classification:
433224, 4332281
Abstract:
Kits and methods facilitate chair-side coating of an endodontic cone for improved sealing between the hydrophilic root canal tissue, the hydrophobic elastomer substrate of the endodontic cone, and a hydrophilic sealing resin. The kit includes one or more endodontic cones (e. g. , formed of gutta percha) and a micro-dose container containing an adhesive composition. The practitioner can dip the cones into the adhesive composition so as to coat the cones chair-side, just prior to use. The adhesive composition includes an adhesive resin compound comprising at least one hydrophobic region and at least one hydrophilic region. The hydrophobic region is compatible with the hydrophobic elastomer substrate of the endodontic cone, while the hydrophilic region is compatible with a hydrophilic endodontic sealing resin.

Polymerizable Temporary Coating Methods And Systems For Intraoral Devices
US Patent:
8075307, Dec 13, 2011

12/237194
Inventors:
Neil T. Jessop - Sandy UT, US

Richard D. Tuttle - Layton UT, US
Assignee:
Ultradent Products, Inc. - South Jordan UT
International Classification:
A61C 13/225, A61K 6/08
US Classification:
433 24, 433180, 523120
Abstract:
Methods and systems for temporarily coating intra-oral devices (e. g. , orthodontic brackets and/or wires) so as to reduce discomfort to soft tissues within a patient's mouth. One embodiment of such a system includes at least one orthodontic bracket or orthodontic arch wire and a two-part polymerizable temporary coating composition for use in coating selected surfaces of the brackets and/or wires. One silicone polymerizable two-part composition includes a vinyl siloxane component, a cross-linking component, and a catalyst activator initially divided between the two parts so that at least one of the components is kept separate from at least one other component (i. e. , all three components are not initially commingled). Upon mixing of the first and second parts, the composition begins to polymerize.
Venting Syringe Plunger
US Patent:

Assignee:
Ultradent Products, Inc. - South Jordan UT
International Classification:
A61M 1/00
US Classification:
604122
Abstract:
A venting syringe plunger assembly for use with a syringe system allows for venting of gas from the syringe system during use. The plunger assembly includes a hollow outer sleeve having an interior surface, and an inner stem having an exterior surface. At least a portion of the inner stem is disposed within the outer sleeve so as to be movable (e. g. , slidable) within the outer sleeve. A venting passageway is defined between the interior surface of the outer sleeve and the exterior surface of the inner stem. The plunger assembly also includes means for selectively moving the inner stem within the outer sleeve so as to selectively open and close the venting passageway.
