The push-out bond strength of BIOfactor mineral trioxide aggregate, a novel root repair material

Abstract

OBJECTIVES: study was to evaluate the push-out bond strength of a novel calcium silicate-based root repair material-BIOfactor MTA to root canal dentin in comparison with white MTA-Angelus (Angelus) and Biodentine (Septodont). MATERIALS AND METHODS: Wilcoxon signed rank test with Bonferroni correction. RESULTS: > 0.017). Most of the specimens exhibited cohesive failure in all groups, with the highest rate found in Biodentine group. CONCLUSIONS: Based on the results of this study, MTA-Angelus, Biodentine, and BIOfactor MTA showed similar resistances to the push-out testing.
