What disinfectants can be used with Eclipse?
A. Uncured Eclipse dentures are sensitive to, and are softened by, some types of disinfectants. Cured Eclipse dentures are resistant to common disinfectants thus a broad range of materials can be used on the finished device including phenolics, quaternary ammonium chlorides, and glutaraldehye-based disinfectants. Thus a dentist or lab technician does not need to be concerned about disinfection of a finished denture whose origin is unknown. [Note: One caveat is iodine-containing disinfectants; these may stain Eclipse (and probably acrylics too) and are not recommended.] The specific disinfectants that we have tested and found to work well on UNCURED Eclipse dentures are: ProSpray Cavicide Banicide The specific disinfectants that we tested and found to work well on CURED Eclipse dentures are: ProSpray Cavicide Banicide Prophene Plus Birex se Q.
