Dental Tribune United Kindom Edition

15Endo TribuneJuly 18-24, 2011United Kingdom EditionUnited Kingdom Edition S eptodont’s newest innova- tion, Biodentine™ has been receiving outstanding praise from endodontic experts up and down the country since its launch in September 2010. Biodentine™ is a material that is set to revolutionise the world of dentistry. What makes Biodentine™ so unique is the fact that it is the first all-in-one, biocompatible and bioactive ma- terial that can be used wherever dentine is damaged, wether in the crown or root, making it lit- erally ‘dentine in a capsule’. The product has already received rave reviews from some of the leading lights in dentistry and represents the cutting edge of technology, which, for the first time, offers a bioactive substitute to dentine. Renowned endodontist Dr Julian Webber commented, “So- phisticated biosilicate technol- ogy and 100 per cent biocompat- ibility makes Biodentine™ the perfect root canal repair mate- rial. With its improved handling ability and quick setting time, Biodentine™ offers considerable advantages over other similar materials. I cannot recommend it more highly.” Professor Callum Youngson BDS, DDSc, FDS, DRD, MRD, FDS(Rest Dent) RCS (Edin), FDS RCS (Eng) added, “Bioden- tine finally provides us with a material that closely resembles lost dentine and has the poten- tial to promote, rather than just allow, healing of the pulpitic tooth resulting from caries or leaking composites. Biodentine, unlike other sedative dressing materials, is also compatible with the final composite resto- ration, making it an important addition to the clinician’s arma- mentarium.” Based on unique Active Bio- silicate Technology™, Bioden- tine™ can be used for a wide va- riety of endodontic indications, wherever dentine is damaged, including: • Root perforations • Pulpal floor perforations • Internal/External resorptions • Apexification • Apical surgery With such a broad range of indications, endodontic spe- cialists are now realising the benefits of Biodentine™ in their practices. N.G.A Wright BDS FDSRCS, Specialist in Endodon- tics, said of the product, “As an endodontist, I have used Bioden- tine™ for repair of perforations and as a retro grade material. I have found it a very easy mate- rial to handle and clinically suc- cessful. I have no qualms in rec- ommending it to my colleagues.” Highly biocompatible, thanks to its Tricalcium Silicate core, Biodentine™ makes the risk of adverse tissue response a thing of the past. It also helps pre- serve pulp vitality by promoting reactionary dentine genesis and has outstanding sealing properties to reduce the risk of clinical failures through bacte- rial percolation, thus ensuring the absence of post-operative sensitivity. Biodentine™ needs no sur- face conditioning or bonding to dentine and sets quickly, making it simple and easy to use for the busy clinician.
