A Review of Endodontic Bioceramics

Applications of nanotechnology in endodontic: A Review

Owing to its favorable impacts on the properties of materials, nanotechnology is rapidly growing. Adding nano particles to a material can significantly affect its mechanical and physical properties. In recent years, nanotechnology has been applied in the field of medical sciences in order to enhance the quality of treatment procedures. This technology can be used in various aspects of dentistry...

Bioceramics in endodontics – a review

Bioceramics are materials which include Alumina, Zirconia, Bioactive glass, Glass ceramics, Hydroxyapatite, resorbable Calcium phosphates, among others. They have been used in dentistry for filling up bony defects, root repair materials, apical fill materials, perforation sealing, as endodontic sealers and as aids in regeneration. They have certain advantages like biocompatibility, non toxicity...

A review of bioceramics and fibrin sealant.

This review focuses on bone substitute composites made by mixing ceramic biomaterials with fibrin sealants. Different biomaterials such as coral, bone-derived materials, bioactive glass ceramics, and synthetic calcium phosphate have been mixed with fibrin sealant, resulting in a combination of the biological properties of the two components. This type of association has not produced identical r...

A review of protein adsorption on bioceramics.

Bioceramics, because of its excellent biocompatible and mechanical properties, has always been considered as the most promising materials for hard tissue repair. It is well know that an appropriate cellular response to bioceramics surfaces is essential for tissue regeneration and integration. As the in vivo implants, the implanted bioceramics are immediately coated with proteins from blood and ...

Endodontic Failures - A Review

Endodontic Irrigants: A Comprehensive Review

Irrigation has been performed in conjunction with endodontic therapy for many years. One of the primary reasons for irrigating the root canal system is to ensure cleanliness of the canals prior to obturation. This cleanliness involves both elimination of microorganisms and removal of organic matter. Sodium hypochlorite [NaOCl] is the most commonly used solution in root canal treatments, despite...
