Bioceramics in Endodontics: Literature review of Biodentine and Mineral Trioxide Aggregate with case reports

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 17, Issue 2

Abstract

Major advances have been made in the field of bioceramics used for endodontic treatment. Bioceramics are biocompatible in nature and have excellent physico- chemical properties. They can function as cements, root repair materials, root canal sealers and filling materials, which have the advantages of antibacterial properties and better sealing ability. These materials have overcome certain limitations of earlier endodontic materials. This article reviews the properties of two most commonly used bioceramic materials: Biodentine and MTA and the application of the same.
