Han L, Okiji T. Uptake of calcium and silicon released from calcium silicate-based endodontic materials into root canal dentine. International Endodontic Journal, 44, 1081-1087, 2011. Aim To compare Biodentine and White ProRoot mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) with regard to Ca and Si uptake by adjacent root canal dentine in the presence of phosphate-buffered saline (PBS). Methodology Root canals of bovine incisor root segments were instrumented, filled with either Biodentine or MTA (n = 20 each) and then immersed in Ca-and Mg-free PBS for 1, 7, 30 or 90 days (n = 5 each). Unfilled, unimmersed dentine specimens (n = 5) served as controls. The specimens were sectioned longitudinally, and the ultrastructure of the dentinematerial interface and the elemental composition/distribution in the materialadjacent dentine were analysed using a wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy electron probe microanalyser with image observation function. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way anova and Tukeys honestly significant difference test or the MannWhitney U-test. Results Along the materialdentine interface, both materials formed a tag-like structure that was composed of either Ca- and P-rich crystalline deposits or the material itself. The width of a Ca- and Si-rich layer detected along the dentine layer of the materialdentine interface showed increases over time. The Ca- and Si-rich layer width was significantly larger (P < 0.05) in Biodentine than MTA at 30 and 90 days. Conclusions Both Biodentine and MTA caused the uptake of Ca and Si in the adjacent root canal dentine in the presence of PBS. The dentine element uptake was more prominent for Biodentine than MTA.
