ULTRADENT - ViscoStat 20% Ferric Sulfate is a HEMOSTATIC agent commonly used in dentistry to control bleeding. It is used during various dental procedures such as restorative, prosthodontic, and periodontal procedures.
ViscoStat works by causing coagulation of blood, which stops the bleeding from the surgical site. It is a viscous solution that adheres well to the surface of the tissue, allowing it to penetrate into the tissues, and control bleeding in a more efficient manner.
The 20% Ferric Sulfate solution has been shown to be effective in controlling bleeding in various dental procedures, and it is particularly useful in cases where there is significant bleeding, such as in surgical extractions, gingivectomies, and periodontal surgery.
ViscoStat can be applied topically to the surgical site using a syringe or a microbrush. It is easy to use and requires minimal preparation. ViscoStat can be used in conjunction with other HEMOSTATIC agents and can be rinsed off with water.
It is important to note that Ferric Sulfate solutions should not be used in patients with iron sensitivity or who are allergic to it. It is also important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and precautions when using this product.
