Well-Root™ PT · premixed bioceramic putty
Why open a whole syringe for one pulp cap? Well-Root™ PT takes a different route to premixed bioceramics: unit-dose capsules. Each 0.25 g capsule holds exactly one case’s worth of ready-to-use calcium silicate putty – fresh every time, nothing left drying on the shelf, nothing shared between patients.

This pack: Well-Root™ PT Premixed Bioceramic Putty, 10 × 0.25 g unit-dose capsules · single use · made by Vericom, Korea
› Unit dose. One capsule, one case – a fresh 0.25 g of putty every time, with no waste and no cross-use between patients.
› Premixed, paste only. No powder, no gel, no mixing; it sets in the presence of moisture from the surrounding tissues.
› Radiopaque. 5.4 mm Al on Vericom’s ISO 6876:2012 testing – the repair or apical barrier is easy to verify on the radiograph.
› Alkaline pH. Vericom attribute an antibacterial effect to the high pH as the calcium silicate sets.
› Compressive and push-out strength. Vericom publish both as strengths of the material against comparator cements in their own bench testing.
› Indicated for pulp capping, perforation repair, root-end filling and apexification.
Vericom publish these figures measured to the international standard for root canal sealing materials. They are the manufacturer’s own bench data, not an independent study.
| Radiopacity | 5.4 mm Al |
| Film thickness | 38.8 microns (tolerance 4) |
| Setting time, initial | 5 minutes (tolerance 2) |
| Setting time, final | 45 minutes (tolerance 5) |
Vericom’s own clinical guideline for Well-Root™ PT, reproduced as they publish it. The full guideline, including pulp capping, root-end filling and apexification, is in the download below.
1 Apply the putty. Apply Well-Root™ PT to the perforation using the suitable instruments such as a plugger or paper points.
2 Place a cotton pellet. Place a moderately moist cotton pellet in the root canal.
3 Temporise. Fill the cavity with a temporary restoration material for more than 4 hours.
4 Obturate. If Well-Root™ PT is fully set, obturate the root canal to complete the treatment.
Why capsules rather than a syringe? Portion control and freshness. Every case starts a new sealed capsule, so the consistency is identical from the first patient in the box to the tenth, and there is no part-used syringe to manage.
Do I need to dry the site completely? No. The putty needs moisture to set, drawing it from the surrounding tissues and dentine. Vericom’s apexification guidance goes further and has a wet cotton pellet placed against it.
How do I place it? Dispense from the capsule and carry it to the site with your preferred instrument – an MTA carrier, an applicator or a plugger – then adapt it gently. One capsule is sized for a single case.
| Carry the putty | Vista Apex MTA Carriers, 0.99 mm or the wider 1.60 mm carriers, and the MTA Applicator 0.80 mm. |
| Temporary restoration | Ultradent J-Temp™ Temporary Resin for step 3. |
| Patency | VDW C-PILOT® 10, 25 mm and C-PILOT® 08, 25 mm. |
| Irrigants | Chlorax 5.25% Sodium Hypochlorite, Chlorax 2% and Endo-Solution 17% EDTA. |
| Obturation | Well-Root™ ST, Vericom’s own premixed bioceramic sealer, for step 4. |
| Coronal seal | SDR® flow+ Refill, Universal – the apical seal is only half the job. |
