Materiales Biocerámicos en endodoncia

Abstract

In endodontics during the last decades, progresses has been made in the field of bioceramics materials that can be used for: retrograde filling, pulp capping, perforations repair, treatment of teeth with open apexes, resorption deffects repair and are also used as obturation sealers, whit great advantages if them are compared with traditional sealers.

Bioceramics have shown the ability to overcome some of the limitations of previous generations of endodontic materials, them excert excellent physicochemical and biological properties, so currently its use is recommended widely in clinical practice.

This article focuses on a review of new bioceramic materials used in endodontics, their physicochemical and biological properties, its advantages and disadvantages, as well as its clinical use.
