Consepsis™ Scrub Refill

Antibacterial Slurry for Dental Preparation Cleaning

Consepsis Scrub Refill is an antibacterial preparation-cleaning slurry from Ultradent, formulated with 2% chlorhexidine gluconate and a finely ground inert glass abrasive. It helps dental professionals remove debris and residual temporary cement while providing antibacterial action during restorative procedures.

The formulation offers both mechanical cleaning and antibacterial properties. Therefore, it provides a dedicated option for cleaning preparations before permanent cementation and other restorative procedures.

Furthermore, the nonsplatter formulation helps support controlled application. The product can also assist with cleaning around orthodontic brackets and in difficult-to-reach areas when used with appropriate accessories.

At TransAfrica Medical Supplies, we supply genuine Ultradent products in Kenya. In addition, our TransAfrica Academy provides product training to help dental professionals improve their product knowledge and clinical workflows.

Preparation Cleaning Before Cementation

Removing temporary cement thoroughly is an important step before permanent cementation.

The abrasive slurry helps remove:

• Residual temporary cement
• Debris from dental preparations
• Surface contaminants
• Material from difficult-to-access areas

As a result, clinicians can incorporate preparation cleaning into a consistent restorative workflow.

The product is particularly relevant when preparing teeth for crowns, bridges, inlays, onlays and other indirect restorations.

2% Chlorhexidine and Inert Glass Abrasive

The liquid component contains 2% chlorhexidine gluconate. Meanwhile, finely ground inert glass provides the abrasive component.

Consequently, the formulation combines antibacterial action with mechanical cleaning.

Unlike conventional pumice products, the formulation uses an inert glass abrasive. This makes it specifically suited to preparation cleaning rather than general tooth polishing.

Nonsplatter Application

A controlled application can make preparation cleaning easier in the dental operatory.

The nonsplatter formula helps minimize unnecessary mess during use. Moreover, Ultradent lists the White Mac™ Tip as a compatible delivery option.

For areas requiring additional mechanical access, clinicians can also use the STARbrush™ Coronal Brush.

Cleaning Around Orthodontic Brackets

Preparation cleaning is not the only application.

Ultradent also identifies cleaning around orthodontic brackets as an appropriate use. Furthermore, the product can support cleaning of pits and fissures before sealant placement.

For these applications, the STARbrush can help clinicians access areas that are difficult to reach with conventional polishing instruments.

Suitable for Restorative Workflows

A dedicated preparation cleaner can support several stages of restorative treatment.

Use it as part of workflows involving:

• Crowns
• Bridges
• Inlays
• Onlays
• Permanent cementation
• Orthodontic procedures
• Sealant preparation
• Intracoronal cleaning
• Extracoronal cleaning

Therefore, one product can support several everyday clinical applications.

Why Use a Dedicated Preparation Cleaner?

Preparation cleaning requires more than simple polishing.

Temporary cement and debris can remain after provisional restorations come off. Therefore, clinicians need an appropriate method to clean the preparation before proceeding with permanent restoration.

Ultradent specifically designed this slurry for preparation cleaning. In addition, Ultradent states that the product does not compromise bond strength.

For this reason, it can form part of a structured restorative workflow when used according to the relevant manufacturer's instructions.

Refill Format for Regular Clinical Use

The refill format provides a practical solution for dental practices that already use the corresponding dispensing system.

Therefore, practices can replenish their supply without repeatedly purchasing complete dispensing systems.

Before ordering, check the exact SKU and packaging configuration to ensure that the refill matches the dispenser and product format required by your practice.

What to Consider Before Buying

Clinical application

Consider whether you need a product for temporary cement removal, preparation cleaning, orthodontic cleaning or sealant preparation.

Delivery system

Confirm that the refill format is compatible with your existing dispensing system.

Clinical accessories

For difficult areas, consider compatible delivery tips and brushes such as the White Mac Tip and STARbrush.

Restorative workflow

Always follow the instructions provided by the manufacturer of the bonding agent or cement being used.

Ultimately, the best preparation cleaner should integrate smoothly into your existing restorative workflow.
