Abstract
Guttapercha (GP) associated with filling cement is the solid material of choice in root canal obturation. However, GP does not present adhesive property, and may allow microfiltration at the gutta-percha-filling cement (GP-CO) interface. Bioactive materials such as Biosilicate (BS) may contribute to GP bioactivity and adhesion with bioceramic cements. This study aims to develop protocols …
