Influence of Glass-Ionomer Cement on the Interface and Setting Reaction of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate When Used as a Furcal Repair Material Using Laser Raman Spectroscopic Analysis
“…A spectral analysis previously demonstrated that the placement of glass ionomer cement (GIC) over MTA after 45 minutes did not affect its setting reaction, and that calcium salts may be formed in the interface of these two materials (24). It could therefore be concluded that conventional GIC might be layered over partially set MTA after 45 minutes and could be used for single visit procedures (25).…”

“…However it could be possible that much of MTA powder was entrapped in the GIC's matrix. Based on the 348 Basic research previous report, 27 two phenomena are observed in the spectral analysis of the setting of MTA: decrease of SiO2 and increase of Ca(OH)2. For further studies, spectroscopic analysis may be required to assess the setting reaction of MTA mixed with GIC.…”

“…26,27 The setting of MTA occurs in three stages. In the first 24 hours, the tricalcium aluminate hydrates to form hydrated colloidal gel of tricalcium aluminate.…”
Objectives:The purpose of this study was to determine the setting time, compressive strength, solubility, and pH of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) mixed with glass ionomer cement (GIC) and to compare these properties with those of MTA, GIC, IRM, and SuperEBA. Materials and Methods: Setting time, compressive strength, and solubility were determined according to the ISO 9917 or 6876 method. The pH of the test materials was determined using a pH meter with specified electrode for solid specimen. Results: The setting time of MTA mixed with GIC was significantly shorter than that of MTA. Compressive strength of MTA mixed with GIC was significantly lower than that of other materials at all time points for 7 days. Solubility of 1 : 1 and 2 : 1 specimen from MTA mixed with GIC was significantly higher than that of other materials. Solubility of 1 : 2 specimen was similar to that of MTA. The pH of MTA mixed with GIC was 2-4 immediately after mixing and increased to 5-7 after 1 day. Conclusions: The setting time of MTA mixed with GIC was improved compared with MTA. However, other properties such as compressive strength and pH proved to be inferior to those of MTA. To be clinically feasible, further investigation is necessary to find the proper mixing ratio in order to improve the drawbacks of MTA without impairing the pre-existing advantages and to assess the biocompatibility.

“…It has been found that MTA does not interfere or react with any other restorative material. When composite resins or GIC placed over MTA, it doesn't affect the setting reaction (Nandini S et al 2007). On the other hand, it was claimed that residual calcium hydroxide may affect negatively in the adaptation of MTA to the dentinal wall.…”
Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the knowledge of the mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) properties among internship students in Riyadh city, Saudi Arabia. Methods: A standardized questionnaire comprised 14 multiple-choice questions about MTAproperties distributed to internship students in Riyadh city,Saudi Arabia. These questions contained types of MTA material, mechanical, chemical, physical properties of MTA, marginal adaptation and sealing ability, antibacterial properties, reaction with other dental materials, biocompatibility, and clinical performance. Data was coded computerized and analyzed using methods of descriptive statistics. Results: The respondents of this questionnaire were 195 subjects. 51.5% of subjects confirmed that MTA sets in the presence of water. 69.4% of respondents confirmed that MTA is available as white and grey. Majority of subjects asserted the sealing ability (89.5%) and antibacterial effects (71.6%) of MTA material. The vast majority don't know the mixing time (50.6%), and pH of MTA (52%). Conclusion: It has been observed an average knowledge about mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) , an increased knowledge about sealing ability and anti-bacterial effects , and poor knowledge about manipulation of MTA material amongst internship students .
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
