What is Papacarie?
Papacarie is an enzymatic gel specifically designed for atraumatic caries removal. It is used without anesthesia and reduces the need for traditional instruments. This gel is a harmless, papaya-based material that is completely safe for patients as it does not contain toxic or irritating components.
How does Papacarie work?
Papacarie is a product that, as its name suggests, identifies the infected part of the tooth, softens it, making it easy to clean, sometimes without the need to use drills.
A single drop of Papacarie placed over caries softens it in less than a minute. This procedure is simple and allows the caries to detach from healthy dentin.
Cavity removal using a papaya-based gel has become an interactive game between the dentist and the little patient.
This way, we can show the little one with the help of cavity indicators how much more we have to clean, maintaining the child's increased attention and, at the same time, offering them information about hygiene at a level they can understand.
Finally, for cavity sterilization and better filling retention, we will use the Waterlase laser, thus avoiding recurrent cavities.
