Directions

After preparing the cavity and applying for pulp protection if indicated the cavity is conditioned using a suitable dentin conditioner such as the Ketac conditioner for 10 seconds. Do not over-dry the cavity as it may lead to post-operative sensitivity.

Finishing should be started 4:30 minutes after the start of the mix at the earliest. Ketac Glaze can be used for surface sealing.
