MTA y selladores

Dental Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) and root canal sealers are critical materials used in endodontic treatments to ensure a tight and durable seal of the root canal system. MTA is primarily composed of calcium silicate-based materials that provide excellent biocompatibility, promoting the healing of periapical tissues and bone regeneration. Root canal sealers, such as DSI ApexSil Root Canal Sealer and DSI Zoer Quick Set ZOE Cement, work in conjunction with gutta-percha to seal the space between the root canal walls and the filling material, preventing bacterial reinfection.

Among the high-quality MTA and sealers available at WholeDent, DSI Re MTA Plus Root Canal Sealer Syringe is a top-tier product that provides excellent adhesion, setting properties, and resistance to bacterial leakage.

The primary differences between MTA and conventional root canal sealers lie in their composition, setting properties, and biological activity:

• MTA-Based Sealers (e.g., DSI Re MTA One RC Bioceramic Sealer):
  
  
• Composed of bioceramic materials that are highly biocompatible.
• Induces the regeneration of dentin and periapical tissue.
• Forms a superior seal by hydrophilic expansion, reducing microleakage.
• Excellent antimicrobial properties due to its high pH.
• ZOE-Based Sealers (e.g., DSI Zoer Root Canal Sealing Cement):
  
  
• Eugenol-based formulation with antimicrobial effects.
• Long-standing history in endodontics for providing reliable sealing.
• Available in quick-set formulas for more efficient procedures.
• Suitable for a wide range of cases but does not promote tissue regeneration as effectively as MTA.

While ZOE-based sealers such as DSI Zoer RF Polymer Reinforced ZOE Cement are great for standard cases, MTA-based sealers like DSI Re MTA Root Canal Sealer Powder and Liquid Set are ideal for complex cases requiring regenerative properties.

Choosing the right root canal sealer depends on several factors, including case complexity, biocompatibility requirements, setting time, and handling properties. Here’s a guideline based on available products from WholeDent:

• For Standard Root Canal Treatments:
  
  
• DSI Zoer Quick Set ZOE Cement – Ideal for general root canal sealing with a reliable quick-setting formula.
• Spident VioSeal® Root Canal Sealing Material – A great option for long-lasting endodontic seals.
• For Cases Requiring High Biocompatibility & Tissue Healing:
  
  
• DSI Re MTA Plus Root Canal Sealer Syringe – Best for biological sealing and periapical healing.
• DSI Re MTA One RC Bioceramic Sealer – Offers bioactivity and dentin regeneration.
• For Enhanced Handling & Application Convenience:
  
  
• DSI Zoer Root Cement Automix Syringe 15G – Designed for easy application and optimal mixing.
• DSI ApexSil Root Canal Sealer Paste Tubes – Paste formulation that ensures a smooth consistency and uniform application.

Selecting the correct sealer ensures optimal adhesion, biocompatibility, and long-term clinical success.

The setting time of MTA and root canal sealers varies depending on the product formulation:

• MTA-Based Sealers:
  
  
• Typically take several hours to 24 hours to set completely.
• Hydrophilic properties allow them to harden in moist environments.
• DSI Re MTA One Root Canal Bioceramic Sealer Syringe has an optimized setting time for quick clinical application.
• ZOE-Based Sealers:
  
  
• DSI Zoer Quick Set ZOE Cement sets in less than an hour, making it an excellent choice for time-sensitive procedures.
• DSI Zoer RF Polymer Reinforced ZOE Cement provides improved flexibility and adhesion.

For easy application and automix features, DSI ApexSil Silver VPS Root Canal Sealer Syringe 10G offers a convenient pre-mixed formulation, ensuring quick and precise placement.
