Biodentine™




Preservation of pulp vitality

  • Absence of post-operative sensitivity: high biocompatibility reducing the risk of pulp or tissue reaction
  • Bioactive: remineralisation of dentine for unique pulp healing properties
  • Formation of reactionary dentine and dentine bridges
  • Pulp healing promotion after pulp exposure: reversible pulpitis, trauma or iatrogenic exposure
