INTRODUCTION: Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was developed because existing
materials did not have the ideal characteristics for orthograde or retrograde root-end fillings …

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this paper was to review the composition, properties,
biocompatibility, and the clinical results involving the use of mineral trioxide aggregate …

This paper reviews the literature on the constituents and biocompatibility of mineral trioxide
aggregate (MTA). A Medline search was conducted. The first publication on the material was …

OBJECTIVES: A Ca3SiO5-based cement has been developed to circumvent the
shortcomings of traditional filling materials. The purpose of this work was to evaluate its …

The optimal concentration at which Si induces cell functions has not been fully elucidated. In
the present study the effects of Si concentration (0–6mM) on the biological functions of …
