Technical Details

Provides Profound Hemostasis in Seconds

The faster hemostasis can be achieved, the faster you can perform quality dentistry for the patient. For most cases, ViscoStat hemostatic solution provides profound hemostasis in just a matter of seconds.

Kind to Hard and Soft Tissues

With a pH of approximately 1, ViscoStat hemostatic solution is one of the kindest hemostatics to be placed against mineralized tooth structure. ViscoStat hemostatic is formulated with patented binding and coating agents to protect tissue while achieving profound hemostasis and sulcular fluid control in seconds.

Viscous Consistency

ViscoStat hemostatic solution is formulated with a patented fumed silica to buffer acidity and offer a more viscous consistency that will not run or drip. This makes precise placement of ViscoStat hemostatic easy, regardless of the location in the mouth.

Decreases Costly Impression Remakes

Quality tissue management is essential to accurate impressions. When impressions are made with fluid present in the sulcus, the quality of the impression suffers and the impression often needs to be remade. Because ViscoStat hemostatic eliminates bleeding and sulcular fluid, it creates the optimal environment for perfect impressions.

Clinicals

Tissue Management Is the Key to Quality Direct and Indirect Restorations

ViscoStat hemostatic's viscous, non-drip formula achieves hemostasis efficiently. The Metal Dento-Infusor™ tip infuses the hemostatic agent into capillaries, forming a cork-like "plug," then wipes coagulum away.

Thoroughly rinsing ViscoStat hemostatic is an important step in testing hemostasis while also creating a field for optimal bonding with no compromise in bond strength.

Hemostasis and Fluid Control

ViscoStat hemostatic and Ultrapak cord are ideal for controlling fluids (blood and sulcular). Use a firm air/water spray to remove excess hemostatic solution.

Successful bonded restoration, two weeks post-op.

Tissue Management Technique Step by Step

See Instructions for Use for complete instructions, warnings, and precautions.

Step 1

With the Dento-Infusor™ tip, scrub hemostatic firmly against cut bleeding tissues until bleeding stops.

Step 2

Give firm air/water spray to remove residual coagulum and to test for profound hemostasis. If bleeding continues, repeat.

Step 3

After complete hemostasis has been attained, excellent retraction is achieved using Ultrapak™ knitted cord placed with the Ultrapak™ packer

Testimonials

"I can't live without ViscoStat because it takes seconds to save an hour and stops the bleeding when nothing else will. Now I don't have to re-prep for impressions."

Dr. Jeffrey Stratford-Jones – Ventura, CA

"[ViscoStat] is convenient, dependable, and effective in bothersome clinical bleeding situations. It is the product of choice when others fail to do the job."

Dr. Daniel Sweet – Colvis, CA

"ViscoStat has allowed me to take clean, dry, accurate impressions even in some of the most hemorrhagic situations. Thank you! I appreciate it, my lab man appreciates it, and my patients appreciate it."

Dr. Monte Person – Fresno, CA

"ViscoStat can stop bleeding on the cervical area of a crown prep like nothing else I have ever seen! It is a miracle solution! I wish I knew how many thousands of hours it has saved me over the years. Thank you, Ultradent!"

Dr. Scott J. Hadley – Haxtun, CO

"Controlling bleeding is almost an everyday procedure. To improve fine impressions of crown margins I rely on ViscoStat to control bleeding, leaving a dry open field for impression material."

Dr. Bertram Chodorov – Melbourne, FL

"Without a doubt I would be lost without ViscoStat! It quickly stops sulcular bleeding, allowing me to place the Ultrapak cord and get an excellent impression on the first try. It is also great to use when bonding composites near gingival tissues. ViscoStat is a vital part of my crown prep and composite armamentarium."

Dr. Julie Ann Routhier – Savannah, GA

"I use ViscoStat in my practice on an almost daily basis–in fact, it's a product that is a MUST HAVE for me! It's absolutely vital when seating crowns. After removing the temporary crowns and doing try-in of the definitive crowns I always use ViscoStat to control the gum tissue hemorrhage. It works absolutely AMAZING and provides a clean, dry field for me to deliver the crowns without compromising the marginal integrity as the cement cures!"

Dr. Todd W. Hohlen – Lincoln, NE
