Bisco TheraBase

Dual-Cured, Calcium and Fluoride-Releasing, Self-Adhesive Base/Liner

TheraBase is a dual-cure, calcium and fluoride-releasing, self-adhesive base/liner.

Utilizing the THERA technology, TheraBase chemically bonds to tooth structure, and releases and recharges calcium and fluoride ions.

TheraBase’s calcium release generates an alkaline PH which promotes pulp vitality. 

It is a dual-cured material that will polymerize even in deep restorations where light cannot reach.

TheraBase is stronger and more durable than other base materials, glass ionomers and resin-modified glass ionomers.

Additionally, it is radiopaque allowing for easy identification on radiographs, providing a quick and effective diagnosis.

TheraBase 8g auto-mix dual syringe can provide approximately 27 base applications.

Unique Benefits:

Continuous release of calcium and fluoride ions

Self-adhesive, no bonding agents required

High compressive strength, absorbs occlusal forces without fracturing

Radiopaque, allows for identification on radiographs and effective diagnosis

Auto-mix, dual syringe provides a consistent mix for immediate delivery with zero to minimal waste of material

Dual-cured material that will cure even in deep restorations where light cannot reach

Clinical Benefits:

Generates an alkaline pH (pH=11) in minutes, which promotes pulp vitality

Contains the adhesion promoting monomer MDP, ensuring reliable and optimal bond to dentin

Pro Tip:

TheraBase can be used in place of a RMGI as a base material due to its high compressive strength
