  • Patent number: 9999605
    Abstract: A kit of parts for use in prevention and/or treatment of a non-oral treatment site, such as, sores, wounds, ulcers or the like, or a fistula or otitis. The kit of parts comprises a first aqueous component comprising one or more amino acids, and a second aqueous component comprising an active halogen compound, wherein the pH of the first component and/or the second component is about 9 to 11.5. There is also provided a treatment preparation prepared from the components and uses thereof in the prevention and/or treatment of a non-oral treatment site, such as, sores, wounds, ulcers or the like, or a fistula or otitis.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9642780
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue comprising: (i) one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative, and (ii) means for chemical treatment of carious dentin tissue. Further, the invention concerns a preparation containing an active, caries-dissolving two-component liquid in the form of a first active, caries-dissolving component and a second component which reduces the aggressiveness of the active component to mucous membranes, a viscosity increasing substance and one or more compounds being a hydrazine derivative. The hydrazine derivative labels carious dentin tissue selectively and substantially irreversibly in the presence of healthy dentin tissue, which is useful in the context of caries removal.

  • Publication number: 20150313801
    Abstract: The application relates to a method for testing a dental instrument comprising the steps of: a) subjecting healthy dentin tissue free from smear layer(s) to treatment with a dental instrument, thereby yielding treated dentin tissue, b) addition of a composition comprising one or more hydrazine derivative(s) to the treated dentin tissue obtained in step a), c) examining if the treated dentin tissue in step b) is stained by the one or more hydrazine derivative(s), and d) determining whether or not the treated dentin tissue contains a smear layer, wherein said one or more hydrazine derivatives is a compound of formula (I) RNHNH2 wherein R is a chemical group containing a chromophore or forming a chromophore with NHNH2. Further, the application relates to a kit of parts for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue and to a method for detection and removal of carious dentin tissue.
