| Abstract | Successful outcomes of root canal treatment, in addition to a multitude of factors, also depends on the prevention of reinfection of the root canal space. The ultimate goal of root canal treatment is prevention or healing of apical periodontitis. The use of biologically active materials to seal root canal systems has been extensively proposed in contemporary endodontics to realise this goal. There are several commercial formulations of bioceramics available based on minor variations in composition which could have potentially important changes in properties in the clinical situation. This narrative review serves to provide brief information on the different formulations of bioactive ceramics that are available to a dentist. |
