Abstract
Are you looking to enhance your daily Endodontic practice and achieve better outcomes? Learn how Bioceramics materials can transform your root canal sealing techniques and shape the future of Endodontics. Bioceramics materials are permanent fillers available in different consistencies, depending on the clinical needs. As sealers, they have revolutionized the obturation technique in Endodontics.
Traditionally, the root canal system's obturation process involves using gutta-percha and a thin layer of sealer, either through warm vertical or cold lateral condensation. Resin-based sealers shrink after setting, while calcium hydroxide and zinc oxide eugenol-based sealers can resorb over time. In contrast, Bioceramic sealers expand while setting and do not resorb easily once set. This makes it possible to use them as fillers in larger volumes without the need to increase the volume of gutta-percha in the root canal.
The gutta-percha cone's purpose is to act as a soft core that allows for retreatment as the set Bioceramic cement is challenging to remove with hand or rotary files. Additionally, Bioceramic putty, a soft, malleable material with superior handling properties, can be applied as a permanent seal for wide apexes, root and floor perforations, and retrograde filling during micro apical surgical procedures. It also promotes the formation of hydroxyapatite on the surface, sealing and supporting healing through the release of calcium and hydroxide ions.
During the lecture, the speaker will showcase clinical cases managed with Bioceramic materials and provide a practical guide for applying these materials in your daily practice. They will also share application techniques they personally invented to make the use of Bioceramic material more predictable. Don't miss this opportunity to enhance your Endodontic practice with Bioceramics materials.
