摘要 |
The present invention is a bioactive endodontic material and its use for filling the tooth and bone cavities. The present invention, by using calcium salt, calcium oxide, calcium silicate, and calcium phosphate compounds as essential constituents, and mixing them with a water base solution, prepares a bioactive calcium and phosphate enriched material. The enriched material (cement) comprises high concentration of water-soluble calcium and phosphate, and immediately forms hydroxyapatite during and after setting. The cement is biocompatible, antibacterial, capable to form an effective seal against reentrance of microorganisms into the filled cavity, compatible to handle and set in an aqueous environment, and able to stimulate hard tissue healing.
