Invasive cervical resorption (ICR) is an uncommon phenomenon (0.1%), however, it represents a challenge to the structural and functional integrity of dentogingival junction, as well risk for survival affected tooth. They are characterized by their location invasive character, being able appear in any tooth permanent dentition. It shows up after damage insertion apparatus, leaving pulp without p...

Purpose. To investigate the cavity adaptation of mineral trioxide (ProRoot MTA/MT), tricalcium silicate (Biodentine/BD), and glass ionomer (Equia Fil/EF) cements used as liners and the interfacial integrity between those liners and a composite resin placed as the main restorative material. Materials and Methods. Standardized class I cavities (n: 8 per group) were prepared in upper premolars. Ca...

INTRODUCTION Adequate seal of iatrogenically perforated area within the root canal system can improve the long term treatment prognosis. This in vitro study evaluated the sealing ability of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), calcium-enriched mixture (CEM) cement and Biodentine in repair of furcation perforation in primary molars. METHODS AND MATERIALS A total of 61 freshly extracted primary ma...

INTRODUCTION Various bulk-fill materials depending on their composition, viscosity, and flow ability have different physical and mechanical properties. The aim of this in vitro study was to determine and compare the shear bond strength and microleakage properties of activa restorative with other bulk-fill restorative materials surefil (SDR), Biodentine, ever X posterior. MATERIALS AND METHODS...

OBJECTIVES 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 resecting the root-end, ...

It not only poses a significant problem in treatment outcome but also greatly affects the prognosis if not repaired in time. If it occurs, it allows microbial i...

The water to powder ratio and method of mixing is important for the properties hydraulic cements. For this purpose a number clinicians prefer premixed materials. Dental manufacturing companies provide predosed materials, however manufacturer instructions are not always adhered to. aim research investigate physical chemical alterations tricalcium silicate?based cement Biodentine when manipulated...
