Abstract:Aim: To compare the physicochemical properties (solubility, pH, radiopacity and crown discoloration) of Pulpine mineral (PMIN) and Pulpine NE (PNE) with the conventional material, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).
Methodology: Specimens of the tested materials were prepared according to the manufacturer’s instructions using split Teflon ring molds. Solubility was evaluated by the percentage of material mass loss over 24 h and one week. The alkalinity was measured after each evaluation period using a pH meter… Show more
