Champ is a bioactive, resin-based hydrophilic sealant that readily penetrates into and adapts to the pits and fissures, tightly seals at the margins and has greater strength and durability than traditional or GI-based materials. These properties make Champ less technique-sensitive and easier to place. Simply etch, rinse, apply and cure.

Do I etch before placing Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant?

Always etch enamel. Etching of enamel has been proven to increase longevity and success of sealants. We recommend Onyx™ 40% Phosphoric Acid Etching Gel; 40% H3PO4 means fast and effective etching and its black silicone particles provide the highest contrast/visibility on tooth surfaces so you can etch exactly where you desire and then be able to rinse completely.

How wet do I leave the tooth before placing Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant?

Champ works best on slightly moist tooth surfaces. Lightly dry the tooth with compressed air or a cotton pellet, but do not desiccate. The tooth should appear shiny or glossy. There should be no drops or pooling of water.

Is it possible to dry the tooth too much?

Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant is moisture activated. Though it will seal on a dry tooth, Champ works best in the presence of moisture. You can always slightly wet the tooth by rubbing a moist cotton pellet over the prepared area.

Is it necessary to use a bonding agent with Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant?

No; Champ has proven retention without the use of bonding agents.

How many teeth does a kit seal?

Single Patient Lollipack - Each Champ single patient Lollipack contains 0.25mL of material, enough for about 4-6 teeth. The 16-pack kit will seal 64-96 teeth; the 64-pack kit will seal 256-384 teeth.
Syringe - Each 1.2 mL syringe seals 20-30 teeth. A kit of 4 x 1.2 mL syringes seals 80-120 teeth.

How long will Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant stay on the teeth?

The clinical data to date indicate that approximately 10% of the sealants placed required repair or replacement over a 5-year period. The teeth sealed with Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant were ~99% caries free.

How long do I light cure Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant?

Light cure time with a standard halogen light (~300mW/cm2) is 20 seconds. More powerful lights will cure faster.

Does Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant cure with all lights?

Yes.

Is Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant fluoride releasing?

Yes. Champ Pit & Fissure Sealant effectively releases fluoride under aqueous conditions for 30 days post-placement.
