Study Notes
Bioactive Materials
- Bioactive materials are materials that elicit a response in living tissue and induce the formation of a bond between tissue and the material.
- The ideal properties of bioactive materials include:
- Bactericidal and bacteriostatic properties
- Sterility
- Stimulation of reparative dentine formation
- Maintenance of pulp vitality
- Uses of bioactive materials include:
- Pulp capping material
- Permanent restorations
- Dentinal tubule occlusion
- Prevention of dentinal hypersensitivity
- Regeneration of bone tissue and promotion of tooth remineralization
Bioactive Materials Examples
- Calcium hydroxide
- Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA)
- Calcium-enriched mixture (CEM)
- Biodentine
- Inert materials (isobutyl cyanoacrylate and tricalcium phosphate ceramic)
- ActiveTM BioACTIVE restorative material
- Pulpdent (composite resin that releases more fluoride than glass ionomers)
- MTYA1-Ca filler
- Tetracalcium phosphate (TTCP)
- Sol-gel-derived bioactive glass (BAG) ceramic containing silver ions (Ag-BG)
- Calcium phosphate
- Novel endodontic cement (NEC)
- Endo sequence root repair material
MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate)
- Developed by Dr. Mahmoud Torabinejad for use as a dental root repair material
- Composed primarily of:
- 75% Portland cement
- 20% bismuth oxide (Bi2O3)
- 5% calcium sulfate dihydrate or gypsum (CaSO4 ∙ 2H2O)
- Additional minor trace elements may be present
- Properties:
- Biocompatible
- Non-resorbable
- Radioopaque
- Antimicrobial
- Compressive strength develops over 28 days
- Low solubility
- pH: initially 10.2, after 3 hours: 12.5 (remains constant)
- Uses:
- Sealing communications between the root canal system and the periodontium
- Pulpotomy and apexification
- Apexogenesis (vital pulp therapy)
MTA Properties
- Setting time: 2 hours and 45 minutes
- Expands during setting reaction, increasing sealing ability
- Moistened cotton pellet should be placed in contact with MTA before placement of the permanent restoration
Comparison with Formocresol
- MTA has low toxic effects, increased tissue regeneration properties, and good clinical results
- Formocresol has been criticized for its tissue irritant, cytotoxic, and mutagenic effects
- MTA is applied directly without cotton pellet, reducing the risk of bleeding and reoccurrence of bleeding
MTA Limitations
- Not used in areas open to the oral environment due to solubility in acidic environments
- Not recommended for obturation of primary teeth due to slow resorption
- Not used with anterior teeth due to discoloration potential
- Not used as a permanent filling due to low compressive strength
MTA Drawbacks
- Discoloration potential
- Presence of toxic elements in the material composition
- Difficult handling characteristics
- Long setting time
- High material cost
- Absence of a known solvent for the material
- Difficulty of removal after curing
- Low compressive strength incompatible with restorative indications
Biodentine Overview
- Biodentine is an all-in-one, biocompatible, and bioactive material for dentine replacement, commercially available since 2009.
- Composition: tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, calcium carbonate, iron oxide, and zirconium oxide.
Composition and Manipulation
- Powder: tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate, calcium carbonate, and iron oxide.
- Liquid: calcium chloride and hydrosoluble polymer.
- Mixing ratio: 1 capsule powder to 5 drops of liquid.
- Setting time: approximately 12 minutes.
Advantages
- Helps in remineralization of dentine.
- Preserves pulp vitality and promotes pulp healing.
- Replaces natural dentine with similar mechanical properties.
- Better handling and manipulation.
- Reduced setting time.
Dental Applications
Dentine Replacement
- Biodentine can be used as a permanent dentine substitute (base) under composite or amalgam, especially in deep carious teeth.
Pulp Capping
- Can be used as a pulp capping material, encouraging pulp healing and dentin bridge formation.
Pulpotomy
- Used as a vital pulp therapy method, with a higher success rate than MTA.
Repair of Perforations
- Preferred for perforation repair in root canal or pulp chamber floor due to good adhesion to dentin surface and fast setting time.
Repair of Resorption
- Biocompatibility and ability to induce calcium-phosphate precipitation make it suitable for bone tissue repair.
Apexification
- Can be used in necrotic immature teeth, inducing formation of new cementum and periodontal ligament.
