Bahan pelindung pulpa yang mampu untuk mempertahankan vitalitas diperlukan pada kasus-kasus terbukanya pulpa, baik disebabkan oleh karena karies, trauma, atau faktor iatrogenik. Oleh itu, bahan tersebut. ini akan berkontak dengan jaringan hidup, yaitu maka digunakan harus memiliki sifat biokompatibel terhadap tubuh manusia. Tujuan tulisan adalah mengkaji parameter sebagai penentu biokompatibili...

o bjectives: the aim of this study was to evaluate marginal adaptation of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), calcium enriched mixture (cem) cement, biodentine and bioaggregate in presence of normal saline and human blood. materials and methods: in this in-vitro experimental study, 80 extracted single-rooted human teeth were instrumented and filled with gutta-percha. after resect- ing the root-en...

this study compared the push-out bond strength of endosequence root repair material (errm) and bioaggregate (ba), new bioceramic materials, to that of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) after incubation in phosphate-buffered saline (pbs), a synthetic tissue fluid, for either 1 week or 2 months.one-hundred and twenty root sections were filled with proroot mta, ba, or errm. each tested material was...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate, in vitro, the antifungal effect of bioaggregate (BA) against Candida albicans by using the direct contact method. STUDY DESIGN BA was tested freshly mixed and after 24-hour set on C. albicans. The tested BA was incubated with C. albicans in plastic tissue clusters for 1 hour, 24 hours, and 3 and 5 days. Aliquots of 0.1 mL were taken from each w...

AIM To evaluate the bioactivity of Bioaggregate (BA), EndoSequence Root Repair Material (ERRM), and white ProRoot Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). METHODOLOGY Sixty horizontal root sections with standardized canal spaces were divided randomly into 3 groups (n = 20) and filled with white ProRoot MTA (groups 1 and 2), BA (groups 3 and 4) or ERRM putty (groups 5 and 6). The specimens of groups ...

The emergence of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) as endodontic repair filling material has generated a lot of interest due to its superior sealing ability and biocompatibility. Although MTA possesses superior sealing ability to traditional endodontic repair filling materials, such as calcium hydroxide, but it has poor handling characteristics. A novel endodontic repair filling materials with s...
