A proven clinical experience of 15 years & Experts' recommendation

APPROVED BY EXPERTS

Expasyl & Cad-Cam
"A preparation protocol is necessary prior to recording optical data. A system for gentle gum eversion and reliable haemostasis, such as Expasyl, is an essential part of this protocol. […] There is an additional specific advantage in using Expasyl with direct CAD/CAM (during treatment): the epithelial attachment is treated with care, which means that bonding can be carried out during the same clinical process whilst respecting the gum collarets during all the phases of creation, in a single operation."

- Dr. Fabienne Jordan-Combarieu

Expasyl & Epithelial Attachment
"The epithelio-conjunctive attachment is the most fragile part of the periodontium. […] It is really important for the future of the prosthesis to not be iatrogenic. […] The Pierre Rolland laboratories were the first to propose to dental surgeons the Expasyl system which allows a gingival eviction without breaking the epithelio-conjunctive attachment."

- Dr. Jacques Charon

THE PASTE THAT CAN BE USED IN ALL CLINICAL CASES

Multiple Indications
Expasyl can be used in a wide range of cases:

Conventional and optical imprints
Sealing / Bonding
Conservative dentistry when restoring class II and V cavities
Implantology

02 MAIN CHARACTERISTICS

MAXIMUM EFFICIENCY

The paste opens the sulcus and dries it (bleeding, saliva, fluids). Efficiently.
Adding an accessory, a solution or performing another treatment is no longer necessary.
The cervical limits and emergence profile are perfectly accessible.

Expasyl enables the practitionner to obtain an horizontal sulcular opening significatively greater than with a cord (1) and generates a pressure 1.7 to 9.2 times higher than other retraction pastes on the market (2).

ATRAUMATIC & PAINLESS GESTURE

Expasyl generates 37 times less pressure than cord (143 vs 5 396 kPa)(1).
The epithelial attachment is preserved (beyond 2 400 kPa the epithelial attachment integrity is no longer guaranteed)(2).
The risks of permanent gingival retraction and bone resorption are reduced.
There is no pain for the patient.

SIMPLE, FAST AND ECONOMICAL PROTOCOL

Time is managed

Setting in place: Expasyl is easily placed within 20 seconds into the sulcus
Contact time: Expasyl is effective in only 1 to 2 minutes
Removal : Expasyl is easily removed with a gentle air-water spray

Budget is controlled

With Expasyl, no anesthesia, no other haemostasis are required
Time-saving: up to five minutes per tooth (especially interesting in case of multiple preparations)
Impression-taking in the same session, even if there is profuse bleeding during preparation

Gesture is simplified

Rinse / Dry the area
Apply slowly while creating a closed area
Leave on 1 to 2 minutes maximum
Remove with a gentle air-water spray

05 TESTIMONIALS

Even though the majority of prosthetic steps are done using transfers and replicas, often avoiding aggression to the soft peri-implant tissue, clinicians may need a better view of the cervical edges of implants and must therefore keep in mind the fragility of the periimplant attachment (adhesion of the more vulnerable hemidesmosomes, collagen fibres running parallel to the main axis of the implant and therefore less anchored, peri-implant conjunctive tissue with fewer cells and blood vessels than the periodontal conjunctive tissue of a natural tooth, etc.).

06 CLINICAL CASE

Veneer restorations

Digital imprint

Porcelain caps

The teeth are prepared for veneer restorations. The limits are very slightly subgingival.

End of gingival retroversion with nothing but the use of Expasyl left on for 2 minutes.

After removing the product and drying the preparations, light silicone is applied to the incisal portion. It is pushed into the open sulcus with no trauma by the heavy silicone, using the triple mixture method.

Result of the imprint: the sulcular space is defined by the light silicone.

The temporary veneers are in place.

Final result one year after the procedure.

Like a traditional impression, a digital imprint requires a precise reading of the limits and no bleeding. For this subgingival preparation covering the dark side of the tooth, the gum tissue quickly repositions itself on the margin, making it impossible to read. Expasyl makes it possible to open the sulcus and dry the area for a precise impression. Because reading is easier, the procedure is completed more quickly.
