Precations:
• FAgamin® generally does not stain enamel but may darken soft dentin or composite restoration margins. Staining can be reduced depending on cavity depth and location by using white fissure sealant, glass ionomer, or opaque resin.
• Caution during clinical handling to prevent product contact with the gingival margin. Improper isolation may cause discomfort or slight irritation.
• Do not apply when there are known deep seepages.
• Inform patients that air-drying and product application may cause transient discomfort in hypersensitive areas. In the case of deep cavities, since filtrations to the pulp may occur, consider avoiding use or diluting the dose with distilled water (1:10).
