“…Bioceramics induced secretion of IL-1b, IL-6 and IL-8 as is seen with mineral trioxide aggregate [37]. Mineral trioxide has also been used in cases with immature apices to complete pulp space therapy by acting as a scaffold for dentin formation when placed over the blood clot in cases of immature apices with parallel walls [38]. Bioceramics also have similar biocompatibility and sets in presence of moisture thus may also be used.…”

“…Thus mineral trioxide aggregate [38] and calcium hydroxide [42] have been successfully used for obturation in patients with incompletely formed apex. Bioceramics the newer endodontic cement can be used in similar cases with advantages of decreased chair side appointments and ease of placement of the material.…”

Bioceramics include ceramic materials specifically designed for use in medicine and dentistry. These materials are mainly alumina, zirconia, bioactive glass, glass ceramics, coatings, composites, hydroxyapatite and resorbable calcium phosphates. Dental applications include dental implants, in periodontal treatment, alveolar ridge augmentation, maxillofacial surgery, pulp capping and apexification. The use of alumina and zirconia can be seen for prosthetic devices although calcium phosphate based materials are used for filling bone defects. Bioceramics are biocompatible, non-toxic, do not shrink and are chemically stable within the biological environment. Bioceramic sealers allow the enhanced use of bioceramics. The future of bioceramics is very promising. Recently, bioceramic putty has been introduced for primary teeth along with other fast repair materials.
