Biocompatibility of retrograde root filling materials: A review

Abstract: The aim of a retrograde filling material is to fill the apical canal space and to obtain a hermetic seal between the periodontium and the root canal system. Several materials have been suggested for root-end filling including: amalgam, gutta-percha, zinc oxide-eugenol cements, glass ionomer cement, gold foil pellets, Cavit, composite resin and mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). Super-ethoxy benzoic acid and MTA are the most suitable materials and provide better results in apicoectomy procedures than other filli… Show more

“…Low toxicity of MTA and GIC has been already well documented. 3,6,7,14,15 Research on the biocompatibility of GICs in conventional and surgical endodontics exhibit good biocompatibility for three main reasons: (i) they set with minimal exotherm; (ii) neutralization is generally sufficiently rapid that any potential irritation because of the presence of free acid is minimal; and (iii) the substances leached from the set cement are generally either benign or beneficial to the tissue in which the cement is placed. 15 Good biocompatibility of GIC is also presented in the result of this study.…”

“…2 MTA offers a biologically active substrate for bone cells and stimulates interlukin production because of its alkaline pH and calcium ion release. 3 The biocompatibility of MTA has been assessed in many studies. [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14] Calcium hydroxide which is biocompatible with tissue, is the main compound released by MTA in water.…”

“…Mineral trioxide aggregate (ProRoot MTA, Dentsply Tulsa Dental Specialties, Tulsa, OK, USA) has shown promising results as a root-end filling material because of its sealing properties 11,12) , bioactivity 13) , and cementogenesis potential 14) . It has rapidly become the 'gold' standard for root-end filling materials 15) . However, poor handling characteristics, initial looseness, and slow setting time make MTA difficult to use 16) .…”
