Pulp oxygen saturation and clinical outcomes after direct pulp capping with MTA or 45S5 bioactive glass in mature permanent teeth: a pragmatic randomized clinical trial

Abstract To evaluate pulp oxygen saturation and clinical outcomes after direct pulp capping with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) or 45S5 bioactive glass in mature permanent teeth with carious pulp exposure. This pragmatic randomized clinical trial included 44 mature permanent te...

Experimental bond containing 45S5 bioactive glass microparticles: adhesive properties, bioactivity and cell viability

The limited durability of resin–dentin adhesion remains a major challenge in adhesive dentistry. This study evaluated the bond strength, nanoleakage, bioactivity, and cell viability of an experimental adhesive incorporating 10 wt% of 45S5 bioactive glass microparticles. Twenty so...
