Angelus Bio-C Repair

• Ready-to-use (putty): Easy to use screw-in syringe.
• Bioactivity/Release of Ca2+ ions : Promotes biomineralization by providing rapid tissue regeneration.
• Bactericidal (pH ~ 12):Promotes local decontamination.
• Setting Expansion (0.092 ± 0.05%): Prevents bacterial infiltration.
• Does not stain tooth structure: Zirconium oxide as a radiopacifier that does not
  stain the dental structure
• Chemical adhesion to dentin: Formation of a zone of mineral infiltration promoting
  a biological seal.
• Radiopacity: More than 7 mm Aluminum step-wedge. Great radiographic visualization.
• Hydrophilic: Absorbs moisture from the medium by starting the setting process.
• Non-toxic: Contains no heavy metals.

Question: Angelus Bio-C Repair is extruded beyond the apex, could it cause irritation to the patient?
Answer: If Angelus Bio-C Repair is extruded beyond the apex during treatment, the risk of irritation is generally low due to its biocompatible properties that promote healing and tissue regeneration. However, overextension may lead to localized inflammation or discomfort if it contacts periapical tissues. In cases of incomplete root development, Bio-C Repair can effectively serve as an apical plug, providing a physical barrier that aids healing and minimizes irritation.

Question: Is Angelus Bio-C Repair sufficient for root canal obturation, or should it be used alongside gutta-percha?
Answer: Angelus Bio-C Repair is primarily a reparative cement and not specifically designed for root canal obturation. While it excels in applications such as retro filling and sealing perforations, it is advisable to use it in conjunction with gutta-percha for optimal results. The combination of Bio-C Sealer with gutta-percha ensures a complete seal within the root canal system, significantly enhancing the treatment's overall success.

Question: Can this be used instead of triple antibiotic paste ?
Answer: While Bio-C Repair is a versatile and effective bioceramic repair cement for various endodontic treatments, it cannot be used as a direct substitute for triple antibiotic paste (TAP). TAP, which contains metronidazole, ciprofloxacin, and minocycline, is specifically designed to control root canal pathogens and manage non-vital young permanent teeth. Bio-C Repair excels in promoting biomineralization, providing a biological seal, and offering bactericidal properties, but it does not replicate the specific antibiotic action of TAP for decontaminating root canals.

Question: For how long time should be kept in canal? Or when to change the dressing ?
Answer: Angelus Bio-C Repair is a versatile bioceramic reparative cement indicated for various dental procedures, including root or furcation perforations, internal or external reabsorption, retrofilling, direct and indirect pulp capping, apexification, apicigenesis, pulpotomy, and pulp regeneration. Once applied, it does not need to be removed

Question: Can this be used as a sealer?
Answer: No, Angelus Bio-C Repair is not intended to be used as a sealer. It serves a specific purpose and is designed root or furcation perforations, internal or external reabsorption, retrofilling, direct and indirect pulp capping, apexification, apicigenesis, pulpotomy, and pulp regeneration.

Question: WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN BIO-C REPAIR AND BIO-C SEALER?
Answer: BIO-C REPAIR is a reparative cement, while BIO-C SEALER is a cement root canal obturation.

Question: WHAT IS THE SETTING TIME FOR BIO-C REPAIR?
Answer: The setting time will depend on the availability of moisture in the medium, but usually occurs in about 120 minutes.

Question: WHAT ARE THE INDICATIONS FOR BIO-C REPAIR?
Answer: As a reparative cement, BIO-C REPAIR has the same indications of MTA ANGELUS and MTA REPAIR HP, which are:

Treatment of perforation of root or furcation by canal;
Treatment of perforation of root or furcation surgically;
Treatment of internal resorption via canal;
Treatment of external or communicating internal resorption surgically;
Retro filling in para endodontic surgery;
Direct and indirect pulp capping; Apicification; Apicigenesis; Pulpotomy; Pulp regeneration.

Question: HOW TO PERFORM THE BIO-C REPAIR APPLICATION?
Answer: It depends on the application spot and professional preferences. Spatulas or MTA applicators (MTA Angelus applicator) can be used.
