Compositional characteristics and hydration behavior of mineral trioxide aggregates

Received 21 January 2010; accepted 5 April 2010.

Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) was one of most popular biomaterials for endodontic treatment in the past decade. Its superb biocompatibility, sealing ability and surface for tissue adhesion all make MTA a potential candidate for many dental applications, such as apexification, perforation repair, repair of root resorption, and as a root-end filling material. There are many review articles regarding the physical, chemical and biological properties of MTA. However, there are few reviews discussing the relationship between the composition and hydration behavior of MTA. The aim of this article was to provide a systematic review regarding the compositional characteristics and hydration behavior of MTA.

Key Words: apexification , compositional characteristics , hydration behavior , mineral trioxide aggregates , perforation repair
