Preparation: Ensure that the root canal is properly prepared and ready for cleansing.

Warning: Do not mix Citra Wash with sodium hypochlorite without a rinse interval to avoid the production of chlorine gas. Always rinse with clean, bacteria-free water between Citra Wash and sodium hypochlorite irrigation.

Application:

• Make sure the tip of the applicator is loose in the canal and at least 2mm short of the apex.

Dwell Time:

• If using Citra Wash to remove smear layer, let it dwell in the canal for 3 minutes.

Rinsing:

• Flush out the canal with clean, bacteria-free water after using Citra Wash.
• Follow with copious irrigation of sodium hypochlorite.

Final Rinse:

• Perform a final rinse with clean, bacteria-free water, plain EDTA, or local anesthetic.

Completion:

Precautions:

• Always use a rubber dam during endodontic therapy.
• Avoid ingestion of Citra Wash solution and prevent contact with eyes or leaving it on soft tissues for an extended period.
• Do not extend the applicator tip past the root apex or express Citra Wash past the apex.
• Do not use on patients with known sensitivity to citric acid.
