Bioceramics have emerged as a cornerstone of contemporary operative dentistry and endodontics, offering bioactive and biointeractive materials that support tissue healing, biomineralization, and long-term clinical predictability. Their capacity to chemically bond with dental hard tissues, provide an effective biological seal, and demonstrate excellent biocompatibility has positioned bioceramics as essential materials in modern restorative and endodontic therapy, particularly within the principles of minimally invasive and regenerative dentistry.
This book presents a comprehensive, evidence-based overview of bioceramic materials used in operative dentistry and endodontics. It begins with the fundamental science of bioceramics, covering composition, classification, setting reactions, physicochemical properties, and mechanisms of bioactivity. The content then systematically advances to clinical applications, including bioceramic restorative materials, calcium silicate–based cements, bioceramic sealers, and repair materials, with detailed discussion of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), its modifications, and contemporary bioactive formulations.To enhance clarity and clinical applicability, the book is extensively illustrated with high-quality, clear colour clinical photographs, radiographs, and schematic diagrams, facilitating accurate visualization of handling characteristics, placement techniques, and treatment outcomes. Complex concepts are organized into concise tables and flowcharts, including comprehensive classifications of bioceramic materials presented with the names of contributing scientists, year of introduction, material composition, key properties, and clinical indications, enabling quick reference and effective learning.By integrating current scientific literature with practical clinical guidelines and comparative evaluations against conventional materials, the book successfully bridges the gap between basic material science and clinical practice. Emphasis is placed on indications, manipulation protocols, advantages, limitations, and emerging trends in bioceramic technology.
This book is designed to serve as an authoritative resource for postgraduate students, practicing clinicians, and academicians worldwide, offering a structured and contemporary reference for understanding and applying bioceramic materials in operative dentistry and endodontics
