Synthesis and analyses of injectable fluoridated-bioactive glass hydrogel for dental root canal sealing.

This study aimed to synthesize fluoride-doped bioactive glass (F-BG) based thermo-sensitive injectable hydrogel for endodontic applications. The structural and phase analyses were done with Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy and X-ray Diffraction, respectively. The setting time of prepared injectable was investigated at 21°C (in the presence and absence of an ultrasonic scalar) and at 37°C.

The trends of dental biomaterials research and future directions: A mapping review.

Objective: This literature research aimed to compare, contrast and quantify the innovations in the most commonly used dental biomaterials.

Methodology: Original research articles based on experimental dental biomaterials published between 2007 and 2019 were retrieved and reviewed. A search of electronic databases, PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science indexed dental/biomaterials journals, has been conducted.
