Sealapex Express (Part Number: 33639), root canal filling material. Manufactured by SybronEndo, Glendora, CA. Intended as a root canal filling material that is used in conjunction with gutta percha or silver endodontic points.
Sybron Dental Specialties is initiating a recall on the Sealapex Xpress due to the presence of crystals in the catalyst. This crystallization may affect proper canal filling by preventing Gutta Percha Points from reaching the bottom of the root canal which may lead to an inadequate seal.
