Objective. The present study assessed the chemical elements in two novel calcium silicate-containing root canal sealers, BioRoot RCS and Well-Root ST, compared to a calcium silicate-containing root canal sealer that has been on the market for several years, MTA Fillapex, and epoxy resin-based sealer AHPlus. Material and Methods. The sealers were mixed and manipulated according to the manufactur...

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is the most frequently used repair material in endodontics, but the long setting time and reduced mechanical strength in acidic environments are major shortcomings. In this study, a novel sol-gel-derived calcium silicate cement (sCSC) was developed using an initial Ca/Si molar ratio of 3, with the most effective mixing orders of reactants and optimal HNO3 cataly...

Doped calcium silicate ceramics (DCSCs) have recently gained immense interest as a new class of candidates for the treatment of bone defects. Although calcium phosphates and bioactive glasses have remained the mainstream of ceramic bone substitutes, their clinical use is limited by suboptimal mechanical properties. DCSCs are a class of calcium silicate ceramics which are developed through the i...

The structure of weeksite, K1.26Ba0.25Ca0.12[(UO2)2(Si5O13)]H2O, orthorhombic, a 14.209(2), b 14.248(2), c 35.869(4) Å, V 7262(2) Å3, space group Cmmb, has been solved by direct methods using data collected with MoK X-radiation and a CCDbased detector and refined by full-matrix least-squares techniques, on the basis of F2 for all unique reflections, to an agreement factor (R1) of 7.0% and a goo...

PURPOSE Calcium-silicate cements have been recently proposed for application in dentistry as root-end filling and root-perforation repair materials. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of ageing of experimental calcium-silicate cements on the chemistry, morphology and in vitro bioactivity of the surface, as well as on osteoblast viability and proliferation. METHODS Two experim...

Background: The aim of this study was to compare three different pulp coverage materials with calcium silicate content considering microleakage in the cavity floor and evaluate gaps a stereomicroscope scanning electron microscope SEM.

This paper presents a comparative study on the effects of high temperature (~500°C) on carbonated calcium silicate-based cement (CSC), hydrated ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and hydrated OPC with 20% fly ash (FA) paste samples. The CSC is primarily composed of calcium–silicate minerals with different calcium to silica atomic ratios, such as wollastonite, rankinite, and pseudowollastonite. The...
