Root canal sealers based on tricalcium silicate interact with root canal dentin and create an alkaline environment, which makes it difficult for bacteria to survive.
New tricalcium silicate sealers are free of bismuth oxide radiopacifier and thus are less prone to staining tooth structure.
Root canal sealers need to comply with ISO standards, thus ensuring adequate material performance in clinical use.
The new bioceramic sealer interacted with physiologic solution, showing potential for biomineralization, and complied with ISO standards.
