SIMANCAS ESCORCIA, VICTOR  y  DIAZ CABALLERO, ANTONIO. Biodentine: a dentine substitute?. Salud, Barranquilla [online]. 2020, vol.36, n.3, pp.587-605.  Epub 23-Oct-2021. ISSN 0120-5552.  https://doi.org/10.14482/sun.36.3.617.6.

Biodentine is a calcium silicate-based biomaterial that has been conceived as a substitute for dentin. It is frequently used in various clinical situations such as pulp lining (direct and indirect), pulpotomy, endodontic perforations, apexification, among others. The objective of this review is to provide a detailed analysis of the physical-chemical, biological properties and the main clinical applications of biodentine. An electronic literature search was carried out in the databases Medline (Pubmed), EBSCO-Host and Science direct (Elsevier) until July 2020. 92 % of the articles referenced in this review were selected through this search. The results indicate that biodentine is a cement for dental use with excellent properties characterized by relatively easy handling, low cost, high compressive and flexural strength, high biocompatibility and excellent bioactivity. In conclusion, biodentine is a recommended material in the treatment of various clinical situations in dental practice given its physicochemical and biological characteristics. However, randomized controlled clinical trials are necessary to determine and confirm that biodentine is indeed a dental material capable of replacing dentin.

Palabras clave : calcium silicate; biocompatible materials; dental pulp capping; pulpotomy.
