What should sealant materials not be stored with?

Sealant materials should not be stored with eugenol products because eugenol can interfere with the bonding properties of sealants. When eugenol comes into contact with the components of sealants, it can inhibit the polymerization process and compromise the effectiveness of the sealant's adhesion to the tooth surface. This can lead to reduced longevity of the sealant and potential failure in its protective function.

Choosing appropriate storage conditions is crucial in dental materials management to ensure that each product retains its effectiveness and integrity. Understanding the compatibility of materials helps prevent issues during dental procedures that rely on the performance of sealants to protect teeth from decay.
