DSI ApexPaste is an effective material for temporary root canal filling, containing calcium hydroxide and iodoform. DSI ApexPaste is characterized by excellent radiopacity and antibacterial properties. This premixed paste can be used in endodontics for apexification procedures as well as the treatment of periodontic endo trauma, pulp regeneration, and pulpitis on permanent or underdeveloped teeth. The high concentration of iodoform provides a long-lasting antibacterial effect that also aids in the regeneration of the pulp while stimulating secondary dentin formation. Pre-mixed Calcium hydroxide ApexPaste containing iodoform has better-quality radiopacity and antimicrobial effect.

DSI Apexpaste is a mixture of iodoform 40.4%, calcium hydroxide 30.3%, and silicone 22.4% which has proven to have a useful effect for pulpectomy treatments in primary teeth. This paste can be extruded into furcal or apical areas, and it is either diffused away or resorbed partially by macrophages.
