MTA Angelus

1. Indications for Use:

1. Treatment of root canal perforations or furcation.
2. Sealing of internal and communicating root resorptions.
3. Retrofilling in endodontic surgeries.
4. Pulp capping in treatments.
5. Pulpotomy.
6. Apexification.
7. Apexogenesis.
8. Intracoronal barrier during tooth bleaching.
9. Apical plug application.

2. Key Features & Benefits:

1. Ions Calcium Release: Enhances formation of mineralized tissues and provides a biological seal of perforations, ensuring total repair of damaged periradicular tissues.
2. Biological Action: Capable of inducing neoformation of periradicular cementum.
3. Hydrophilic & Easy to Use: Maintains properties in humid oral environments.
4. High Alkalinity: Offers antibacterial (bactericidal) properties.
5. Low Solubility: Prevents leakage and disintegration.
6. Biocompatibility: Low inflammatory response and promotes tissue compatibility.
7. Adequate Compressive Strength: Suitable for use as a base restoration material with excellent compressive strength.
8. High Radiopacity: More radiopaque than dentin and bone, allowing excellent radiographic visualization.
9. Setting Time of 15 Minutes: Enables immediate restoration and single-appointment procedures.

3. Product Presentation:

• Ref. 822 MTA Angelus White – Contains 1 g of White MTA Angelus, 3 ml of distilled water, and 1 powder dispenser (provides 7 applications).

4. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ):

1. What are the main properties of MTA?
   • Chemical: Releases calcium ions for mineralized tissue formation and its high alkalinity helps prevent bacterial growth.
   • Physical: Exhibits low solubility, a compressive strength of 44.2 MPa, expansion after hydration for complete cavity sealing, a 15-minute setting time, and excellent radiopacity.
   • Biologic: Biocompatible for direct use on living tissues, supports new cement formation, aids dentin remineralization, and ensures biological sealing of perforations.
2. What is the difference between Gray MTA and White MTA?
   • White MTA contains less iron oxide, resulting in a lighter color without affecting its excellent properties.
3. What are the indications for MTA?
   • Use in treating root canal and furcation perforations, root canal resorption, retrofilling in periapical surgeries, direct pulp capping, pulpotomy, apexigenesis, apexification, as an intracoronal barrier during tooth bleaching, and as an apical plug.
4. How is MTA applied?
   • It is applied using insertion spatulas, amalgam carriers, or specialized instruments like the MTA Carrier and MAp System. It should not be used with a Lentulo spiral.
5. Why is the setting time of MTA Angelus faster than other brands?
   • A reduced calcium sulfate concentration results in a 15-minute setting time, allowing final restorative treatment in the same clinical appointment.
6. Can MTA be used as a final root canal filler?
   • No, due to its flow characteristics, MTA is not recommended for final root canal filling since its removal would be extremely difficult if reentry is needed.
