Calcium silicate-based cements are known for their wide applications in dentistry and orthopedics. The alkaline pH (up to 12) of these cements limits their application in other orthopedic areas. In this study, the effect of dicalcium phosphate dihydrate (DCPD) coating on set cement on pH reduction and biocompatibility improvement was examined. Samples with 0 and 10 weight ratio DCPD were prepared and characterized by XRD, FTIR, and SEM. The DCPD coating on the set cement was performed by a 7 d immersion in 1% monocalcium phosphate (MCP) solution and characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM, and EDX. Also, the compressive strength and cytotoxicity of the samples were tested. The results showed that DCPD coating did not significantly change the compressive strength of the cement, but by decreasing the pH of the culture medium to the physiological range, it led to enhance adhesion, spreading and proliferation of human osteosarcoma cell line (Saos-2). The novel DCPD coated calcium silicate-based cement could be served as a bulk or porous bone substitute and scaffold.

The dolomite dust-emulsified asphalt composite (DAC) with excellent mechanical properties was successfully prepared using alkali activation. The effects of different alkali concentrations and emulsified asphalt contents on the mechanical properties of the materials were studied. And the micro-mechanisms of its mechanical performance changes were analyzed through SEM and XRD characterization.

Adhesion within endodontic obturation material and root canal walls improves the efficacy of the endodontic treatment by establishing a barrier that inhibits reinfection and entombs residual bacteria. This study evaluates the push-out bond strength (POBS) of calcium silicate sealers compared to an epoxy-resin-based sealer. A total of 36 extracted mono-radicular teeth were prepared with Pro Taper Ultimate and irrigated with 5.

Background: This study aimed to assess and compare the performance of root canal treatment obturated either with calcium silicate-based or epoxy resin-based root canal sealers on retreatment cases with periapical lesions.
Methods: Patients' radiographic data and clinical records were obtained retrospectively from the computerized patient record system. A total of 44 teeth, 28 teeth treated with calcium silicate-based sealer and 16 teeth treated with epoxy resin-based sealer, were included in the study.
