Abstract

Calcium silicate based materials have gained significant popularity in recent years due to their similarities to mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and their wide range of applications in dentistry (Prati and Gandolfi, 2015). One commercially available calcium silicate material is "Biodentine," which was introduced in 2009 as a dentin replacement material (Rajasekharan et al., 2014). Biodentine exhibits excellent properties for various dental procedures, including endodontic repair (such as root perforations, apexification, resorptive lesions, and retrograde filling in endodontic surgery), pulp capping, and as a dentin replacement material in restorative dentistry (Rajasekharan et al., 2014). Moreover, it can be used as a pulpotomy agent for both primary and permanent teeth. Biodentine is formulated using the MTA-based cement technology, which has led to improvements in its physical qualities and handling properties (Kaur et al., 2017).
