Product indication:
Caries and dentine hypersensitivity. In office use for high caries risk patients 2+ years as well as patients 6+ years with hypersenstive teeth.
Product benefits:
Colgate Duraphat varnish is clinically proven to be effective against dentine hypersensitivity for 30 days with just one application1. It is tinted for easy visualisation and sets rapidly on contact with saliva, making it quick and easy to apply. It is clinically proven in the prevention of caries2.
Mode of action:
Colgate Duraphat varnish works in two ways:
  1. Prevents caries. Forms calcium fluoride on the tooth surface, providing a fluoride reservoir for protection against cariogenic acid attack.
  2. Controls dentine hypersensitivity. Forms calcium fluoride globules which occlude dentine tubules.
