First introduced in 2009 as a "dentin replacement" agent, biodentin is a "bioactive replacement for dentine." It is also available under the trade name Septodont. The material is reported to have better physical and biological properties than other tricalcium silicate cements such mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) an d BioaggregateTM.
A new calcium silicate-based restorative cement called Bio-C Repair (Angelus, Londrina, Brazil) exhibits bioactivity and promotes tissue repair and biomineralisation. This material has a number of benefits, including reduced susceptibility to moisture as compared to traditional substitutes and easy application via a convenient single-use syringe size, which improves clinical efficacy. (Torres et al., 2020). By encouraging bioactivity, biomineralisation, and hard tissue repair, Bio C Repair is used in immature permanent teeth to support apexogenesis (continuous root growth) and pulpotomy. It functions as a biocompatible pulp dressing, promoting tissue regeneration, sealing the pulp chamber, and outperforming conventional techniques with better handling and shorter setting periods.
Radiographic examination of complete apical closure
Digital Radiographic examination using visual examination of the teeth were made using the TPC paralleling device
