Bioceramic Materials: A Boon in Pediatric Dentistry: A Literature Review

Abstract

Abstract Over the past few decades, bioceramic materials have developed from extremely biocompatible, but low-strength dental materials to novel product compositions for broader clinical uses in pediatric dentistry. The most crucial thing is to better understand the elements that encourage remineralization and how they operate dynamically. Some of the major drawbacks of prior generations of endodontic materials have been effectively solved by new bioceramic materials. In particular, these materials have been used for vital pulp therapy treatment, restorative, and root canal procedures in a variety of dental applications. They may be used in clinical pediatric dentistry since they have been demonstrated to be more biocompatible, induce tissue regeneration, have low cytotoxicity, excel at sealing, cause little to no postoperative pain, and have improved physiochemical properties. When employing bioceramic materials, it is crucial to adhere to suitable clinical standards and techniques to guarantee positive results in pediatric dentistry. Therefore, the focus of this review is on the properties and advantages of using bioceramic materials in pediatric dentistry.
