PrimaDry™

Drying Agent

PrimaDry drying agent is optimal for pit and fissure drying and prior to placement of hydrophobic sealants. It contains 99% organic solvents and 1% primer. PrimaDry drying agent rapidly volatilizes moisture content of pits and fissures after rinsing off etchant with water spray and air drying. The ultrafine primer film allows UltraSeal XT plus pit and fissure sealant to flow perfectly into every pit and fissure. Do not use on dentin.

Technical Details

Helps to Eliminate Moisture that Can Cause Failure

PrimaDry drying agent is designed to rapidly volatize any moisture remaining in the pits and fissures of teeth after rinsing with water spray and air drying. This prevents microleakage or poor retention that can come from moisture being trapped in the pits and fissures before the sealant is applied.

Allows Sealants to Flow Easily

PrimaDry drying agent contains an ultrafine primer that allows sealants to easily flow perfectly into pits or fissures.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can PrimaDry drying agent be used with UltraSeal XT™ hydro pit and fissure sealant?

    No, we do not recommend the use of PrimaDry drying agent with UltraSeal XT hydro sealant. They weren’t designed to work together. UltraSeal XT hydro sealant works best on slightly moist teeth, and PrimaDry drying agent is designed to help desiccate the tooth.

  • Will PrimaDry drying agent cause sealants to flow more easily?

    PrimaDry drying agent is 99% organic solvents and 1% primer. The primer eliminates moisture in pits and fissures so that the sealant can flow more effectively into the etched enamel surfaces.
