Abstract Introduction Insufficient seal of apex is a significant reason for an endodontist’s disappointment. The materials root-end filling utilized ought to forestall departure possible pollutants into periapical areas. objective this analysis was compare the fixing capacity three materials: white mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), Portland cement (PC), and Biodentine. This analyzed through tes...

background and aim(s): this in vitro study compared the effects of mineral trioxide aggregate (mta), calcium enriched mixture (cem) cement, biodentine (bd) and octacalcium phosphate (ocp) on the viability of human gingival fibroblasts (hgfs). material and methods: after completion of the setting time of understudy materials, fibroblasts were placed in 24-well insert plates and 1mg of the unders...

Background. The aim of this study was to compare the push-out bond strengths of calcium silicate-based ProRoot MTA and Biodentine cements and SureFil SDR and EverX Posterior bulk-fill composite resins. Methods. Twenty-four single-rooted maxillary central incisors were sectioned below the cementoenamel junction, and the root canals were instrumented using rotary files. Thereafter, a parallel pos...

Aim: To compare the effects of various levels of acidic pH on surface microhardness of Biodentine.TM Materials and methods: Biodentine was mixed and packed into stainless steel molds (diameter = 5 mm and height = 1.5 mm). Four groups of 10 specimens each were formed and exposed to pH: 7.4, 6.4, 5.4 and 4.4 respectively for 4 days. Vickers microhardness was measured for each of the specimens and...

To compare the fracture resistance of immature teeth subjected to apexification with three different bioactive materials. Sixty non-carious, single-rooted premolar straight canals were decoronated at cementoenamel junction, standardizing 13 mm length. After access preparation, accessed #10 K-file followed by biomechanical preparation using Ni-Ti ProTaper Gold rotary files upto F3 and irrigation...

Excessive tooth structure loss is a common iatrogenic error encountered during endodontic practice. Conservative treatment planning is essential to maintain the structural integrity in such teeth. This case report elucidates a novel approach in sculpting Biodentine as a dentin substitute followed by internal bleaching and restoration with fiber-reinforced composite.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to examine the effect different hardening times and blood contamination MTA Biodentine, which are widely used for pulp capping treatments in market, on shear bond strength (SBS) with a self-etch adhesive resin, after (24, 48, 72 96 hours). Materials Methods: Slots diameter 5 mm height 2 were prepared 192 acrylic blocks study. Both ProRoot Biodentine accordi...

Background/Aim: This in-vitro study evaluated the apical-sealing ability of MTA, MTA+10% CaCl2, Biodentine™ and RMGIC when used as retrograde material. Material Methods: A total 80 single-rooted bovine incisors were decoronated, instrumented, divided into 4 groups according to material, follows: Group 1: MTA (ProRoot Dentsply); 2: Dentsply) + 10% CaCl2; 3: Biodentine (Biodentine®, Septodont); 4...
