...Abstract |
Introduction: Endodontic root canal
sealers serve the purpose of providing a fluid-tight seal, sealing off
accessory canals and multiple foramina, while comprehensively confining
the bacteria. Of late, rather than seeking a hermetic seal of the root
canal, a more biological perspective is being tackled in which, sealers
resolve to interact with root dentin, resulting in bioactivity.
Tricalcium silicate sealers set the bioactivity in motion on the
material surface after contacting the tissue fluids.
Key words: antimicrobial activity, bioactivity, biocompatibility, calcium phosphate, calcium silicate, push-out bond strength, root canal dentin, sealers |
