Current concepts related to the use of bioceramic materials in Dentistry

Abstract

Endodontics is the specialty that covers the control of inflammation of the root canal, the etiology, diagnosis, prevention and therapeutic intervention of diseases associated with the pulp. The objective of the present study is to highlight the current concepts related to the use of bioceramic materials in dentistry. This is a literature review article, developed through a bibliographic survey in the databases Medline, PubMed, Scielo and Periodicos CAPES. The present study showed a gradual increase in research related to bioceramic cements, which may attribute this interest to the importance of having a constant search for improvement of the techniques and materials used to recover oral health. In addition, a broad clinical applicability of these materials in Endodontics was highlighted, due to the evidence found regarding the advantageous properties, such as their excellent biocompatibility, ability to bond to dentin, good radiopacity, better handling conditions, appropriate setting time, bactericidal activity, bioactivity and still, do not cause stains in dental structures, characteristics sought for a restorative material to be efficient.

Influência da solução de imersão e da interação com a dentina na solubilidade de cimentos endodônticos biocerâmicos pronto para uso ou pó-líquido

“…Dentre as propriedades dos materiais obturadores, baixa solubilidade favorece o selamento (Cavenago et al, 2014;Urban et al, 2018;Bastos et al, 2021). Cimentos endodônticos à base de silicato de cálcio apresentam adequadas propriedades biológicas (López-García et al, 2020;Alves Silva et al, 2020;Silva et al, 2020) e físico-químicas (Zordan-Bronzel et al, 2019;Torres et al, 2020;Amaral et al, 2020;Tavares et al, 2021). No entanto, alta solubilidade é observada nas avaliações realizadas para estes materiais (Torres et al, 2020;Bastos et al, 2021).…”
