Waldent WalCap Amalgam Capsules has high copper alloy which contains admix particles. WalCap exhibits the best sealing qualities with no danger of excessive delayed expansion if accidentally contaminated with water-based fluids. Hence, it would seem prudent to select an alloy such as WalCap for retrograde fillings.It is predosed and comes in self activating capsules.
Advantages :
High Compressive Strength – WalCap’s high compressive strength minimizes the risk of fracturing the restoration. High compressive strength ensures a tough and durable long lasting restoration.
Low Microleakage – The microleakage for WalCap is essentially zero. Extensive microleakage has been related to increased post operative sensitivity. Not affected by moisture.
Optimal handling characteristics – WalCap’s consistency of mix, ease of loading, placement in preparations, condensability, burnishability, quality of interproximal contact, carvability and setting characteristics are excellent. The resulting restorations are smooth and have excellent margin adaptation, especially after burnishing.
