“…ProRoot MTA compared with Endocem (Jang et al . , Song et al . ) as well as grey MTA Angelus compared with Biodentine (Katge & Patil ) as direct pulp‐capping materials revealed no significant difference between the materials in terms of the teeth being asymptomatic, sensitive to a sensibility tests, no internal and external resorption and no periapical radiolucency.…”

Mineral trioxide aggregate and other bioactive endodontic cements: an updated overview – part I: vital pulp therapy

2017

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a bioactive endodontic cement (BEC) mainly comprised of calcium and silicate elements. The cement was introduced by Torabinejad in the 1990s and has been approved by the Food and Drug Administration to be used in the United States in 1997. A number of new BECs have also been introduced to the market, including BioAggregate, Biodentine, BioRoot RCS, calcium-enriched mixture cement, Endo-CPM, Endocem, EndoSequence, EndoBinder, EndoSeal MTA, iRoot, MicroMega MTA, MTA Bio, MTA Fillapex, MTA Plus, NeoMTA Plus, OrthoMTA, Quick-Set, RetroMTA, Tech Biosealer and TheraCal LC. It has been claimed that these materials have properties similar to those of MTA without its drawbacks. In this article, the chemical composition and the application of MTA and other BECs for vital pulp therapy (VPT), including indirect pulp cap, direct pulp cap, partial pulpotomy, pulpotomy and partial pulpectomy, have been reviewed and compared. Based on selected keywords, all papers regarding chemical composition and VPT applications of BECs had been reviewed. Most of the materials had calcium and silicate in their composition. Instead of referring to the cements based on their chemical compositions, we suggest the term 'bioactive endodontic cements (BECs)', which seems more appropriate for these materials because, in spite of differences in their chemical compositions, bioactivity is a common property for all of them. Numerous articles were found regarding use of BECs as VPT agents for indirect and direct pulp capping, partial pulpotomy and cervical pulpotomy. Most of these investigations used MTA for VPT. In most studies, newly introduced materials have been compared to MTA. Some of the BECs have shown promising results; however, the number of their studies compared to investigations on MTA is limited. Most studies had several methodological shortcomings. Future investigations with rigorous methods and materials are needed.

“…It has been recommended that at least a 1‐year follow‐up is necessary when direct pulp‐capping materials are compared to each other (Jang et al . ); however, most studies reported different success rates over longer periods for direct pulp capping (Mente et al . , Cho et al .…”

“…MTA has accordingly been recommended for use in clinical applications, including a pulpotomy procedure, the sealing of perforations, pulp capping, open apexes, rootend filling, and root canal filling (Camilleri and Pitt Ford, 2006;Roberts et al, 2008). In recent years, many clinical studies have shown that MTA-based materials may be reliably used in direct pulp capping (Hilton et al, 2013;Jang et al, 2015;Song et al, 2015). However, MTA has two main disadvantages: high solubility when stored in water and a long setting time (Antunes Bortoluzzi et al, 2006) that requires multiple-visit treatment, as finishing during a single session is not feasible.…”

Evaluation of the bond strength of different adhesive agents to a resin‐modified calcium silicate material (TheraCal LC)

This study evaluated the bond strength of different adhesive agents to TheraCal LC and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and examined the morphologic changes of these materials with different surface treatments. A total of 120 specimens, 60 of MTA Angelus (AMTA), and 60 of TheraCal LC, were prepared and divided into six subgroups according to the adhesive agent used; these agents included Scotchbond Multipurpose, Clearfil SE Bond, Clearfil Protect Bond, Clearfil S Bond, OptiBond All-in-One, and G-aenial Bond. After application of adhesive agents, Filtek Z250 composite resin was placed onto the specimens. Shear bond strengths were measured using a universal testing machine, followed by examination of the fractured surfaces. The surface changes of the specimens were observed using scanning electron microscopy. Data were compared by two-way analysis of variance. Although no significant differences were found among the bond strengths of different adhesives to AMTA (p = 0.69), a significant difference was found in terms of bond strengths of different adhesives to the TheraCal LC surface (p < 0.001). The total-etch adhesive system more strongly bonded to TheraCal LC compared to the bond with other adhesives. TheraCal LC bonded significantly more strongly than AMTA regardless of the adhesive agents tested. Resin-modified calcium silicate showed higher bond strength than AMTA in terms of the composite bond to these materials with different bonding systems. On the other hand, the highest shear bond-strength values were found for composite bonds with the combination of TheraCal LC and the total-etch adhesive system.

“…In some of these studies, the success rates of direct pulp capping using MTA have been reported to exceed more than 90% 35–37 . In addition, success rates seem to be maintained over long follow-up periods with MTA 33,37,38 , which was different from CH’s showing time-dependent decline in success rates 39,40 . Therefore, more pulp capping procedures are being performed using HCSCs (Figure 2).…”

Synopsis The long-term use of calcium hydroxide and the recent increase in the use of hydraulic calcium-silicate cements as direct pulp-capping materials provide important clues in terms of how reparative dentin may be induced to form a “biological seal” to protect the underlying pulp tissues. In this review article, we will discuss clinical and molecular perspectives of reparative dentin formation based on evidence learned from the use of these pulp-capping materials. We will also discuss the emerging role of calcium as an odontoinductive component in these pulp-capping materials.
