Abstract

Aim: There has been a search for bioactive, biocompatible material for quite some time now which can be utilized for various endodontic procedures for better palliative care of teeth. These materials could reduce the chances of extraction of teeth. Here we will discuss the journey of MTA (mineral trioxide aggregate) as a unique, bio-active material from inception till now in pediatric dental practice. Materials and Methods: Web-based databases such as Scopus, Web of Science, and PubMed were explored from January 2012 till June 2022. Thus found types of writeups were review articles. This review article will give an insight into MTA—its evolution and use in pediatric dentistry. The following search terms were used: MTA (all fields, MeSH terms), AND pediatric dentistry (all fields) (MesH terms, all fields) AND advances (all fields) OR “Mineral” and “Trioxide” and “Aggregate” (all fields) OR pediatric and “Dentistry” (all fields) or “Advances.” An electronic literature search in PubMed database using the free-text terms “MTA”, and “Pediatric Dentistry” showed 253 articles from 2012 to 2022, of which 30 were review articles and systematic reviews. Results: The initial search retrieved 531 articles. After a full-text review of all the articles, only 12 were included. The original MTA has some known disadvantages, such as prolonged setting time, being expensive, and can lead to discoloration of tooth later in time. Owing to the disadvantages of the material, researchers have been searching materials which can show improved physiological, chemomechanical, and better biologic characteristics. Conclusion: MTA has come a long way as a bioceramic, bioactive material with improved physical and chemical properties. The introduction of newer fast-setting MTA and pre-mixed MTA have shown excellent handling properties. MTA is now getting more attention in pediatric dentistry as a bioactive agent with the scope for many studies and clinical trials.

三氧化二矿骨料在儿科牙科中的演变:一个叙述性的回顾

目的:人们一直在寻找生物活性的、生物相容性的材料，这种材料可以用于各种牙髓治疗，以更好地缓解牙齿的疼痛。这些材料可以减少拔牙的机会。在这里，我们将讨论MTA(矿物三氧化物骨料)作为一种独特的生物活性材料从诞生到现在在儿科牙科实践中的历程。材料与方法:从2012年1月至2022年6月，对Scopus、Web of Science、PubMed等基于Web的数据库进行了研究。因此发现的文章类型是综述文章。这篇综述文章将给深入了解mta -它的演变和使用在儿科牙科。使用以下搜索词:MTA(所有字段，MeSH术语)和儿科牙科(所有字段)(MeSH术语，所有字段)和进展(所有字段)或“矿物”和“三氧化物”和“聚合体”(所有字段)或儿科和“牙科”(所有字段)或“进展”。在PubMed数据库中使用自由文本检索词“MTA”和“Pediatric Dentistry”进行电子文献检索，检索到2012 - 2022年共发表论文253篇，其中综述和系统综述30篇。结果:初始检索检索到531篇文章。在对所有文章进行全文审查后，只有12篇文章被纳入。原来的MTA有一些已知的缺点，比如固定时间长，价格昂贵，并且可能导致牙齿变色。由于材料的缺点，研究人员一直在寻找能够改善生理、化学力学和更好的生物学特性的材料。结论:MTA作为一种生物陶瓷、生物活性材料，在物理和化学性能方面取得了长足的进步。新型快速凝固MTA和预混合MTA的引入显示出优异的处理性能。目前，MTA作为一种生物活性制剂在儿科牙科领域受到越来越多的关注，有许多研究和临床试验的范围。
