Properties
"Camphorphen-A" refers to the plastic hardening pastes. The composition of the material consists two strong antiseptic, such as p-chlorophenol and camphor, antiseptic effect of which lasts for a long time after filling. Radiopaque filler is based on barium sulphate and zinc oxide with the addition of zinc sulfate. Tooth moisture plays a double role: on the one hand, it contributes to hardening, on the other hand - its surplus with the introduction of paste in the root canal is not desirable. So the pulp chamber and root canals should be thoroughly dried before introducing a root canal filling paste. After filling the root canal the paste completely fills it, increasing in volume due to the formation of hydrates, which additionally gives a very tight obturation.

To speed up the curing process before the introduction of the paste into the root canal, you can add a drop of distilled water.
