MTA Angelus® Gray, 1g

MTA Angelus® Grey · 1 g repair cement

The original grey MTA, for repairs nobody will ever see

Furcation perforation on a lower molar? Root-end fill at the back of the mouth? Grey MTA Angelus® is the original formulation – tricalcium and dicalcium silicate with bismuth oxide as the radiopacifier – and where aesthetics are not in play it remains the straightforward choice, setting in the 15 minutes Angelus publishes.

This pack: 1 g grey powder (roughly 7 applications) · 3 ml distilled water · powder dispenser
Made by Angelus, Brazil

› Indicated for perforations of the canal and furcation, internal resorption, retrofilling, direct pulp capping, pulpotomy, apexogenesis and apexification.
› Mixing – one spoon to one drop of distilled water, 30 seconds, wet-sand consistency; condense with an amalgam condenser or moistened paper points.
› Two Angelus cautions – not for filling root canals, and not where it will contact the gingival groove, as the cement will solubilise.

Should I be using white instead?
Anywhere the repair could show through thin tooth structure, yes – MTA Angelus White is the pale formulation, with less of the iron oxide Angelus identifies as the source of the grey's dark colour. It costs the same, so grey is simply the one to pick where nothing shows.

Is there a bigger pack?
Yes – Grey 2 g works out cheaper per gram if you place MTA regularly.

What do I place it with?
A disposable MTA carrier for canals and root-end preparations; hand instruments are fine for an open furcation.
