BIS-CORE™*
Core Build-Up Composite
Dual-Cured

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

BIS-CORE is a dual-cured, highly filled, radiopaque core build-up composite. The high viscosity BASE PASTE is a universal dentin shade and may be used alone as a light-cured CORE build-up material. When the BASE PASTE is mixed with the CATALYST PASTE, the resultant mixture is a dual-cured, low viscosity composite ideal for intracoronal syringe placement. The dual-cured CATALYST PASTE is available in two shades, Natural and Opaque. By mixing the BASE PASTE with the dual-cured LIQUID CATALYST (available separately), a very low viscosity is achieved which is ideal for post cementation. BIS-CORE has superior physical properties with a compressive strength greater than 40,000 psi resulting in a strong, easy-to-use core build-up material. BIS-CORE is intended for use with a 4th or 5th generation adhesive system such as ALL-BOND® 2* or ONE-STEP®*.
TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Working Time:
Setting Time:

5.0 min

Working and setting time using LIQUID CATALYST at room temperature (22°C/72°F)
Working Time:
Setting Time:
2.0 min
3.5 min
Working and setting time will be accelerated in the warm intraoral environment using both PASTE CATALYST and LIQUID CATALYST. Also, the cement will set quickly once it comes in contact with ALL-BOND 2 primers on the tooth.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE
CORE BUILD-UP
1. If a post is indicated, cement post into post preparation according to manufacturer's instructions.
2. Etch remaining coronal tooth structure with an etchant such as UNI-ETCH®* and apply an adhesive such as ALL-BOND 2 or ONE-STEP , according to the manufacturer's instructions.
3. For Dual-Cured Method:
a.) The ratio of base paste to catalyst paste may be varied to alter the setting time.
    • To shorten the setting time:
    • To lengthen the setting time:
Increase amount of base
Increase amount of catalyst paste

b.) Dispense desired amount of BIS-CORE BASE and CATALYST PASTES onto a light-protected mixing pad by turning syringe handle clockwise. To prevent excess material escaping from syringe, turn handle counterclockwise immediately after the desired amount is dispensed. Mix to a uniform paste (10-15 seconds).
c.) Place directly into preparation or fill a CENTRIX AccuDose®* syringe tip with the composite and inject into the preparation and around the post, if present. Continue to build until cavity preparation is filled to the desired level.
d.) Light cure for 20 seconds per surface or allow the material to self-cure, and continue with preparation.

4. For Light-Cured Method:

a) Dispense desired amount of BIS-CORE base paste onto a light-protected mixing pad by turning syringe handle clockwise. To prevent excess material escaping from syringe, turn handle counterclockwise immediately after the desired amount is dispensed.
b) Place directly into preparation or fill a CENTRIX AccuDose syringe tip with the composite and inject into the preparation and around the post, if present. Continue to build until cavity preparation is filled to the desired level.
c) Light cure for 20 seconds per surface and continue with preparation.

FIBER/METAL POST CEMENTATION
For post cementation, BIS-CORE LIQUID CATALYST must be used instead of the PASTE CATALYST in order to lower the viscosity of the cement.

Post Space Preparation:
1. Remove the temporary restoration and clean preparation. If eugenol containing temporary cements were used, use pumice to thoroughly remove all traces of cement. Eugenol may affect curing of some composite materials.
2. FIBER POST: Prepare the root canal with the Pre-Shaping and Finishing drills, according to manufacturer's instructions. METAL POST: Sandblast the surface of the post.
3. Clean the canal with a water spray.
4. Remove excess water from the canal with a paper point.
5. Apply UNI-ETCH (32% phosphoric acid) for 15 seconds and rinse.
6. Blot the canal dry with a large paper point, leaving the dentin visibly moist.
7. Apply 2 coats of ALL-BOND 2 Primers A and B or ONE-STEP.
8. Blot the canal dry with a paper point; repeat with a new paper point until the paper point returns dry from the canal. This step is important for removal of any puddled primers so that there is no interference in complete seating of the post.
9. Light-Cure ONE-STEP for 10 seconds with a small light tip. Light access is crucial.
The user must use their own discretion as to whether light will reach into the canal space. Although ONE-STEP is very light sensitive, Bisco cannot guarantee success if the appropriate amount of light has not reached the adhesive.

Post Cementation:
1. Coat the post with ALL-BOND 2 Primers A and B or with ONE-STEP and lightly air dry.
2. Mix one drop of BIS-CORE LIQUID CATALYST with 1/4 inch of BIS-CORE BASE PASTE into a uniform paste (10-15 seconds).
3. Fill a CENTRIX AccuDose NeedleTubes™* syringe needle tip with the cement and inject the cement into the canal. Start at the apical end of the canal and work towards the pulp chamber. (As an alternative, a lentulo spiral or paste filler may be used to carry the cement into the canal.)
4. Seat the post into the canal gently and maintain firm pressure once the post is seated.
5. As soon as the cement has set, proceed with the core build-up.

ALTERNATIVE TECHNIQUE: To prevent premature set of the cement, follow directions above except:
Post Space Preparation STEP 7: Apply 2 coats of Primer B only. Lightly air dry.
Post Cementation STEP 1: Coat the post with Primer B only. Lightly air dry.
