What are the main properties of MTA REPAIR HP?

Chemical:

• Release of Ca ions – allows for formation of remineralization tissue.
• Highly alkaline – inhospitable to bacterial growth.

Physical:

• Low solubility – can be used directly on the pulp and periapical tissues.
• Compressive strength: 44.2 MPa – can be used as base material.
• Expansion through hydration – produces total sealing of the cavities.
• Setting time: 15 minutes – can be used in a single session.
• Radiopaque – allows for subsequent X-ray monitoring (proactive observation).

Biological:

• Biocompatibility – can be used directly on living tissues
• Neoformation of cementum – the only dental material with this property
• Remineralization of dentin – formation of a biological barrier
• Biological sealing of perforations – complete healing of the periradicular tissues

What is the difference between ANGELUS MTA and MTA REPAIR HP?

• The difference is in the replacement of distilled water by a liquid that contains water and another organic plasticizer that gives the product high plasticity.
• The replacement of the radiopacifier (from Bismuth Oxide to Calcium Tungstate), ensuring the
  absence of dental discoloration.

What are the indications for MTA REPAIR HP?

• Treatment of root perforations and furcation;
• Sealant for internal resorptions and interior connections;
• Retrofilling material for parendodontic surgeries;
• Pulp capping material in conservative pulp treatments;
• Inducer of apexification and apexigenesis;
• Material for intracoronal barrier prior to tooth whitening;
• Apical plug.

How is MTA REPAIR HP applied?

It can be applied with its own instruments for use (Angelus MTA Applicator).
