Morphological and chemical analysis of different precipitates on mineral trioxide aggregate immersed in different fluids

Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze the ultrastructures and chemical compositions of precipitates formed on mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA; White ProRoot MTA) immersed in distilled water (DW) or phosphate buffered saline (PBS), based on the attribution that MTA's bioactivity and sealing ability are influenced by its interaction with the external fluid environment. After 1 and 14 days of immersion, precipitates formed on MTA disks were analyzed using wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy electron probe… Show more

“…GuerreiroTanomaru et al 28) showed that Portland cement-based materials with the addition of different radiopacifiers (bismuth oxide, calcium tungstate, and zirconium oxide) presented antimicrobial activity and pH similar to pure PC. The alkaline pH of MTA may be important for the calcium carbonate formation, which could contribute to the sealing ability of MTA 30) . Coronal leakage after sealing with MTA was lower than dentin-adhesive materials and silicon-based sealer 31) .…”

“…The solubility of the components of Portland cementbased endodontic restoratives impacts upon their sealing capacity, mechanical stability, antimicrobial properties, biocompatibility and bioactivity [18][19][20][21] . For example, soluble calcium and silicate species are acknowledged to stimulate bone tissue regeneration 18,19) .…”

“…For example, soluble calcium and silicate species are acknowledged to stimulate bone tissue regeneration 18,19) . The release of hydroxide ions is associated with antimicrobial activity and also the ability to induce bone mineralisation 11,20,21) . The reaction between released calcium ions and physiological carbonate ions forms insoluble calcite which precipitates in the cracks, pores, voids and margins of the cement and is conjectured to improve the sealing ability of the material 20) .…”

“…Esto podría reducir el tiempo de la técnica aplicada y una mejor comodidad para el paciente. Por otro lado en cuanto al uso de las dos marcas comerciales de MTA, no hay evidencia suficiente para descartar alguno de los dos, por lo tanto se debe seguir realizando investigaciones que logren aclarar este problema (26)(27)(28).…”
