Abstract

Calcium silicate based cement is a group of biomaterials, based on Portland cement. Its physicochemical properties such as solubility are of the utmost importance. It should have low solubility in tissue fluid since the dissolution of materials may lead to treatment failure.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the solubility of five calcium silicate cements after being placed in distilled water for a period of 28 days.

Material and methods: The purpose of this study was to compare solubility of a four new calcium silicate-based cements, such as: gray MTA Angelus; white MTA Angelus; BioAggregate and Biodentine with conventional mineral trioxide aggregate White ProRoot. Solubility is evaluated using standardized samples of materials, which are weighed before and after 28-day immersion in distilled water.

Results: The lowest solubility is found at White ProRoot and the significantly highest solubility – at Biodentine.
