ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
Calcium silicate cements (CSCs) are often used in endodontics despite some limitations related to their physical properties and antibacterial efficacy. This study aimed to develop and demonstrate the viability of a series of CSCs that were produced by sol-gel method and further modified with mesoporous bioactive glass nanoparticles (MBGNs) and collagen, for endodontic therapy.METHODS:
Calcium silicate (CS) particles and MBGNs were synthesized by the sol-gel method, and their elemental, molecular, and physical microstructure was characterized. Three CSCs were developed by mixing the CS with distilled water (CS+H2O), 10 mg/mL collagen solution (CS+colH2O), and MBGNs (10 %) (CSmbgn+colH2O). The mixing (MT) and setting (ST) times of the CSCs were determined, while the setting reaction was monitored in real-time. Antibacterial efficacy against Enterococcus faecalis (E. faecalis) and regenerative potential on dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) were also analyzed.RESULTS:
The CS+H2O displayed a ST comparable to commercial products, while CSmbgn+colH2O achieved the longest MT of 68 s and the shortest ST of 8 min. All the experimental CSCs inhibited the growth of E. faecalis. Additionally, compared to the control group, CSCs supported cell proliferation and spreading and mineralized matrix production, regardless of their composition.SIGNIFICANCE:
Tested CSCs presented potential as candidates for pulp therapy procedures. Future research should investigate the pulp regeneration mechanisms alongside rigorous antibacterial evaluations, preferably with multi-organism biofilms, executed over extended periods.
