Análise comparativa entre o MTA e o biodentine® em selamento de perfuração apical: uma revisão de literatura

Abstract

Dental treatment aims at dental maintenance, this is made possible due to great advances in all areas of modern Dentistry and the greater efficiency of endodontic treatments. The present study, of literature review, consists of thirty-one scientific works comparing the two main repair materials for endodontic perforations present in the dental products market. as is the case with traditional calcium-based products, MTA and the new Biodentine®. These materials are excellent at drilling repair, with very similar properties between the two, but with some technical differences between them. They are: cost, tooth discoloration property, dimensional stability and ease of handling. Even with some differences in strength and color stability between materials. Several studies point out that there are no significant differences between the studied materials, leaving the choice of which material to use in each drilling case at the discretion of the responsible professionals, since both have excellent capacity for repairing and sealing the biological spaces of endodontic perforations.
