Biodentine™




Prevention of clinical failures


  • Long lasting sealing properties: mineral tags in the dentine tubules combined with high dimensional stability over time
  • Less risk of bacterial percolation: outstanding microleakage resistance
  • Absence of post-operative sensitivity: no shrinkage
  • No conditioning or bonding: natural mechanical anchorage in dentine tubules High micro-leakage resistance

BiodentineTM has better resistance to leakage than Fuji II LC on enamel and dentine interfaces
Compared dye penetration at the dentine/material interface. 0= No dye penetration - 3= Total dye penetration
