Biodentine: Properties and Clinical Applications

From Dentistry Made Simple Dentistry Made Simple

A comprehensive academic overview of Biodentine, a tricalcium silicate-based cement used extensively in restorative and endodontic dentistry, with Imad About serving as the editor of the source text. The material explores the physico-chemical properties of Biodentine, including its hydration, setting time, and ion release, while also detailing its biocompatibility and bioactive capabilities, such as stimulating cell proliferation, differentiation, and dentine-pulp regeneration. Furthermore, the text addresses the material's clinical applications in vital pulp therapy (including direct/indirect capping and pulpotomy), the management of traumatic dental injuries in immature teeth, and its use in treating furcation perforations and root resorptions, often comparing its efficacy to other materials like Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and calcium hydroxide. The sources collectively establish Biodentine as a crucial bioactive material representing a paradigm shift in the treatment of various dental pathologies.
