TY - JOUR T1 - A Review of Endodontic Bioceramics TT - JF - JIDA JO - JIDA VL - 28 IS - 1 UR - http://jida.ir/article-1-1839-en.html Y1 - 2016 SP - 20 EP - 33 KW - Endodontics KW - Bioceramics KW - Root Canal Filling Materials KW - Root Canal sealant N2 - Background and Aim: The use of ceramics has a long history. A new category of these materials was used in medicine in 1960 introduced as bioceramics. Biocompatibility, osteoinductivity and sealing ability are among the most favorable characteristics of endodontic bioceramics. Introduction of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) revolutionized endodontics and this new era is progressively growing. Materials and Methods: This article reviews endodontic bioceramic materials in the Iranian market such as different types of MTA (ProRoot, Angelus, Root MTA), calcium enriched mixture (CEM) cement, Endo Sequence, iRoot products and MTA Fill apex sealer. Electronic search was carried out for the existing literature in PubMed, Medline and Google Scholar from July 1995 to January 2016 and more clinically applicable data were collected. Conclusion: Favorable characteristics and promising results of bioceramics make them suitable for use in endodontics and new products of this generation are increasingly introduced to the dental market.
