A Breakthrough in the Era of Calcium Silicate-Based Cements: A Critical Review

Calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) or mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) lookalike materials are blocks of cement or root canal sealers produced from calcium (Ca) and silicate. They have superior sealing ability, bioactivity, and marginal adaptability, making them appropriate for various dental tre...

description Calcium silicate-based cements (CSCs) or mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) lookalike materials are blocks of cement or root canal sealers produced from calcium (Ca) and silicate. They have superior sealing ability, bioactivity, and marginal adaptability, making them appropriate for various dental treatment applications. Mineral trioxide aggregate is widely used in numerous endodontic repair techniques. The capacity of this cement to promote tissue regeneration and stimulate mineralization accounts for its widespread usage in pulp capping, apexification, apical surgeries, and revascularization. Several studies have been conducted to investigate changes in the components of MTA-based types of cement directed to improve their presentation clinically. To improve flowability, new Ca silicate-based formulations have been introduced commercially. In these new formulations, essential features such as adequate radiopacity and setting time, color stability, alkaline pH, and calcium ion release and biocompatibility must be considered. Owing to an increased range of indications of CSCs, including some for restorative dentistry, and with the emergence of novel silicate calcium-based materials with considerable changes in their compositions, it is necessary to examine the available scientific literature that evaluates their usage in these applications. Therefore, this review paper aims to assess the existing knowledge of CSCs, emphasizing their potential uses in restorative and endodontic dentistry. This report strives to update doctors' understanding of CSCs, allowing for a better therapeutic approach.
