Evaluation of new Bioactive Materials in Endodontic: a Literature Review
Objectives: The objective of our work is : to discuss the different properties of the different bioactive bioceramics to evaluate their therapeutic indications. to conclude a comparision between different materials Methods: Our research was carried out on the Pubmed , only articles published between 2010 and 2020 were retained with inclusion criteria containing : articles in English or French; experimental studies in vivo and in vitro, systematic and litterature reviews, clinical cases. After a critical reading ,99 articles were retained in our review. Results: Bioceramics are a subfamily of ceramic-based biomaterials that are considered as bioactive and biocompatible with ideal proprieties and able to ensure the success of endodontic treatment. MTA is the first bioactive bioceramic material that appeared in endodontics. Other new bioactive materials have emerged afterwards such as Bioaggregate, biodentine, CEM, total Fill BC, endosequence BC and Bioroot RCS. These new materials have interesting biological, physicochemical and mechanical properties. They find their indication in procedures for maintaining pulp vitality, apexification, retrofilling and treatment of perforations and resorptions. In addition, new sealing cements with interesting sealing and bioactivity properties increasingly improve a better root canal obturation Conclusions: While MTA was the benchmark in bioceramic materials, material advances have constantly tried to overcome disadvantages and improve its properties. Bioceramics now have a wide array of applications both in endodontics and restorative dentistry. An up-to-date knowledge of these new bioactive materials is essential to ensure the selection of the most suitable material in different clinical situations.
