Hydraulic Calcium Silicate‐based Endodontic Cements
Hydraulic calcium silicate cements were introduced to dentistry initially for perforation repair and to be used as root‐end filling materials. This chapter discusses the properties and composition of these materials and goes into detail about the cement, radiopacifier, additive, and vehicle characteristics and the implications of these in clinical use. The first scientific publication of the use of Portland cement in dentistry can be attributed to Witte in 1878. The first patented formulation containing Portland cement was called mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA). The main component of MTA is tricalcium silicate. Radiopacifiers are added to hydraulic cements to enable radiographic detection postoperatively as the radiopacity of hydraulic cements is about 3 mm aluminium thickness. Hydraulic calcium silicate cements can be used for various applications in endodontic therapies. This includes their coronal, intraradicular, and extraradicular use. For each application, specific material properties are discussed.
