Abstract

Paediatric Dentistry has witnessed significant changes in the materials used in pulp therapy in recent years. Bioceramic materials have been considered as the dawn of a new era in dentistry. The introduction of these materials into pulp therapy as mineralising materials has brought about enormous productive changes. Bioaggregate (BA) is a newly introduced nanoparticle-sized bioceramic material produced as an alternative to Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), aiming to overcome the disadvantages of the material. Invitro studies and a few clinical studies have demonstrated its biocompatibility and other properties, establishing it as an alternative to MTA and expanding its clinical applications. The aim of the present narrative review is to provide insight into the properties of BA, considering its scope in Paediatric dentistry.
