This study was designed to investigate the resistance to dislodgment provided by MTA HP, a new high-plasticity calcium silicate-based cement. Biodentine and White MTA Angelus were used as reference materials for comparison. Three discs 1 ± 0.1 mm thick were obtained from the middle third of the roots of 5 maxillary canines. Three 0.8-mm-wide holes were drilled on the axial surface of each root ...

PURPOSE Clinical, radiological and histological evaluation of root perforations treated with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or Portland cements, and calcium sulfate barrier. METHODS One molar and 11 premolar teeth of a male mongrel dog received endodontic treatment and furcations were perforated with a high-speed round bur and treated with a calcium sulfate barrier. MTA, Portland cement typ...

Newly available materials for retrograde obturation should have their sealing properties evaluated. The goal of this study was to evaluate the sealing ability of Endo CPM sealer, an MTA-based endodontic cement. Single-rooted extracted human teeth were endodontically treated. After apical sectioning, retrograde cavities were prepared. Teeth were divided into five experimental groups (n=12), in w...

Objective:  To investigate the tissue response and biomineralization ability of CER prepared with epoxy resin or water compared to Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) .  Material Methods:  Polyethylene tubes containing materials empty for control were inserted into subcutaneous tissues 30 rats. After 7, 15, 30, 60, 90 days, rats killed removed analysis using hematoxylin-eosin staining, von Kossa u...

introduction: the purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the sealing ability of the readymade temporary filling and hand mixed materials by assessing coronal microleakage. materials & methods: standardized access cavities were prepared in 80 intact human permanent premolar teeth. they were divided randomly into four experimental groups (n=20). the teeth were restored using one of the te...

introduction: flow rate (fr) and compressive strength (cs) are important properties of endodontic biomaterials that may be affected by various mixing methods. the aim of this experimental study was to evaluate the effect of different mixing methods on these properties of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) and calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement. materials and methods: hand, amalgamator and ultr...
