“…The ability of MTA to create an alkaline environment may explain its antibacterial effect against E. faecalis [6]. Previous studies have also demonstrated a significant antibacterial effect of MTA, IRM and glass ionomer like material against E. faecalis without being able to totally eliminate the bacterium [4,5,40].…”

The antibacterial test used in this study was a modified direct contact test, which is a common antibacterial test used in the endodontic literature to test the antibacterial properties of root cements [4] and sealers [30]. However, the main limitation of the regular direct contact test is that it does not allow evaluation of microorganisms under biofilm conditions [5] because any attempt to disrupt the bacterial biofilm on cement surfaces would lead to crushing of the unset cement samples.…”

“…The most widely used root-end filling material is a mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), which is a calcium-silicate cement. MTA possesses several advantages, such as good sealing ability [1], acceptable mechanical properties [2], biocompatibility [3], and some antibacterial properties [4,5]. However, the main drawbacks of MTA are its high cost, low radiopacity, difficult manipulation and long setting time [2,6].…”

Materials and methods:The antibacterial effect of S-PRG, MTA and IRM cements were tested against Porphyromonas gingivalis and Enterococcus faecalis after one and three-days of aging of the cements. Set cements were immersed in distilled water for 4 hours to 28 days and ion releasing ability was evaluated. Initial and final setting times of all cements were evaluated using Gilmore needles. The push-out bond strength between radicular dentin and all cements was tested at different levels of the roots.Results: S-PRG and IRM cements but not MTA cement demonstrated significant antibacterial effect against Porphyromonas gingivalis. All types of cements exhibited significant antibacterial effect against Enterococcus faecalis without being able to eliminate the bacterium. S-PRG cement provided continuous release of fluoride, strontium, boron, sodium, aluminum and zinc throughout all tested time points. Both initial and final setting times were significantly shorter for S-PRG and IRM cements in comparison to MTA. The push-out bond strength was significantly lower for S-PRG cement in comparison to MTA and IRM at coronal and middle levels of the roots. Conclusions:S-PRG cement demonstrated significant antibacterial effects against endodontic pathogens, multiple ion releasing ability, relatively short setting time and low bonding strength.Clinical relevance: S-PRG cement can be used as a one-visit root repair material with promising antibacterial properties and ion releasing capacity.

“…11,12,14,16 The main goals of using MTA and Portland cement are to induce dentin bridge formation and to maintain pulp vitality. 17 So, there is strong background that the PC should be used as pulpotomy materials in human primary teeth after sufficient clinical trial. Until these days, there are few reports on the use of PC as medicaments in human primary teeth, but significant body of research is needed to accept PC as an effective and economic substitute of MTA.…”

Mineral trioxide aggregates (MTA) has been considered one of the most effective pulpotomy materials as it induces the formation of dentine at a greater rate with superior structural integrity, minimal inflammation and nominal hyperplasia. Portland cement (PC), posing the principal chemical elements with similar mechanisms of action, physical properties and biocompatibility like MTA, may be considered as effective alternative for the same. So, the objective of the study was to compare the clinical and radiographic outcome of Portland cement and mineral trioxide aggregates as pulpotomy material in primary teeth. A total of 40 patients having deep carious primary tooth with mild thermal sensitivity were enrolled in this study. Pulpotomy 20 patients were treated with Portland cement and the remaining 20 patients were treated with mineral trioxide aggregates, those considered as group A and group B respectively. Then, clinical and radiological examinations were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months interval to investigate the incidence of postoperative pain, swelling, dentinal bridge formation and root resorption. After a period of one year, a total of 60.0% teeth treated by Portland cement and 50.0% teeth treated by MTA group came out successfully both clinically and radiographically. All these treated teeth that came out successful remained vital having no pain clinically along with radiological evidence of dentin bridge formation and absence of internal resorption. The difference between the tested groups was not statistically significant (p>0.05). It can be considered that Portland cement (PC) can also be used as successful pulpotomy material as an effective and economic substitute of MTA.

“…Since Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is used in dentistry, several studies evaluated the effect of MTA on microorganisms [1][2][3][4][5][6] , with conflicting results. Torabinejad et al 7) found that MTA was effective against facultative microorganism but not against other bacterial strains, including Enterococcus faecalis.…”

The purpose of this study was to evaluate some physical and chemical properties of MTA incorporated with antibacterial silver zeolite (SZ). 0%, 0.2% or 2% mass fraction of SZ was added to MTA powder. The amounts of calcium released from the specimen in deionized water were measured with an atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The setting times of the samples were evaluated using Gilmore-type needles. For solubility and water absorption tests, the samples were placed in a cylindrical polystyrene-sealed container. At 7 days, the samples were removed from solutions and blotted dry for solubility and water absorption test. The highest calcium release was detected in 2% SZ MTA at 24 h. The addition of 2% SZ to MTA reduced the setting time statistically (p<0.05). 2% SZ MTA was significantly more soluble than MTA and 0.2 % SZ MTA (p<0.05). Further research is needed prior to clinical use of MTA with incorporated SZ.
