Hello, How can we help you?

Yes. Biodentine® XP is a suitable dental material for primary (children 2+) and permanent teeth in accordance with its IFU. Biodentine® XP is favored in vital pulp therapy in young patients due to its excellent safety profile, biocompatibility, and bioactivity*****. Biodentine® XP’s benefits include:

• Preserving pulp vitality in deep caries or accidental pulp exposure.
• Promoting dentine bridge formation to protect the natural tooth structure.
• Supporting continued root development in immature permanent teeth by maintaining the health of the radicular pulp.

Biodentine® XP can be used in pediatric dentistry as a bulk-filling material. Using the Bio-Bulk Fill procedure*, the final restoration can be placed in the same visit.

***** Properties verified by preclinical studies.

Biodentine^® XP cartridges have a shelf life of 24 months from the date of manufacture when storage recommendations are followed. To ensure product longevity:

• Keep cartridges in their original packaging until ready for use.
• Store cartridges at 5°C-25°C in a dry environment. 
• Avoid exposure to high temperatures, moisture, and direct sunlight.

Discard any Biodentine^® XP cartridges that have exceeded the expiry date on the packaging.

Biodentine^® is a dentine substitute with multiple clinical applications.

In the crown, it can be used for temporary dentine-enamel restoration for up to 6 months, restoration of deep and/or large coronal carious lesions, restoration of cervical or radicular lesions, pulp capping (direct and indirect), and pulpotomy for diagnosed symptoms of reversible or irreversible pulpitis.

Biodentine^®’s unique combination of therapeutic and restorative properties makes it optimal for filling the tooth from pulp to crown using the Bio Bulk-Fill procedure. As only one material is used, it’s not necessary to use layering and light curing. The final enamel restoration can be placed in the same session, offering greater time-efficiency for practitioners, and fewer visits and less chair time for patients.

Biodentine® is a unique combination of pulp therapeutic and restorative properties in one material, ideal for daily deep cavities restorations with the Bio-Bulk Fill procedures. Some of the materials commonly used for similar indications include:

• Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is another biomaterial that is often used for pulp capping and perforation repairs. Although it displays good biocompatibility and sealing, it does not have the same purity as Biodentine^{® 3}. Further, it has a much longer setting time of up to four hours, is more difficult to handle, and may result in tooth discoloration, as reported in clinical use³.
• Calcium hydroxide was traditionally the material of choice for pulp capping. Although it is biocompatible and promotes dentine bridge formation, calcium hydroxide is vulnerable to dissolving and has limited mechanical strength, which can affect sealing⁴ and long term stability, which limit its use for permanent restorations.
• Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is often used for restorations and repairs. It offers good adhesion and resistance to leakage, and also releases fluoride for protection against caries. However, certain limitations may affect its clinical performance. Its relatively low compressive strength and hardness limit its use to lower-stress areas⁵. Additionally, the long-term sealing ability of GIC may be less predictable in some clinical scenarios. Unlike some bioactive materials, GIC does not actively promote pulp healing or dentine formation. Comparative studies have shown that alternative materials such as Biodentine^® may induce superior remineralization of caries-affected dentine⁶ and promote a favorable environment for angiogenesis and osteogenesis, thus stimulating the healing process⁷.

In conclusion, while there are a number of restorative materials on the market, numerous clinical and preclinical studies have reported favorable outcomes with Biodentine® in terms of handling, setting, sealing8, biocompatibility⁹, and bioactivity^{7, 10}.

Biodentine® XP is a dentine restoration system designed for daily deep cavity restorations. It represents the next generation of Biodentine®, a unique material combining both therapeutic and restorative properties.

Biodentine® XP is made from ultra-pure tricalcium silicate using proprietary Active Biosilicate (ABS) Technology™, providing biocompatibility and bioactivity. Suitable for indirect or direct placement over the pulp, Biodentine® XP stimulates the pulp’s healing capabilities and promotes the formation of reparative dentine to help maintain tooth vitality and structure.

Biodentine® XP forms an interface with the dentine surface via micromechanical anchorage, providing a tight seal. Thanks to its long-lasting dimensional stability, Biodentine® maintains this seal over time and resists microleakage. It reaches mechanical properties similar to sound dentine, making it an optimal choice for bulk-filling techniques such as the Bio-Bulk Fill procedure.

The Biodentine® powder component comes in a capsule and is composed of:

• Tricalcium silicate, the main ingredient that initiates the setting reaction, releases calcium ions and stimulates dentine repair.
• Calcium oxide, a catalyst.
• Calcium carbonate as filler.
• Zirconium oxide for radiopacity.
• Iron oxides for their characteristic color.

The Biodentine® liquid component comes in an ampoule and contains:

• Calcium chloride
• Polycarboxylate
• Purified water

Biodentine® has an initial setting time of approximately 12 minutes after mixing. It is recommended to wait 12-15 minutes before covering with the final restoration in order for Biodentine® to fully set.

The setting time may vary (from 9 to 25 minutes) depending on certain conditions, including the storage time and storage conditions.

Biodentine® and Biodentine® XP are both made from the same materials: ultra-pure tricalcium silicate powder, calcium carbonate, zirconium oxide, and a calcium chloride liquid with a water-soluble polymer. Therefore, there is no difference in composition, clinical applications, or benefits.

The key difference between Biodentine® and Biodentine® XP is the method of preparation and delivery. Biodentine® capsules contain the powder component, which must be mixed with the calcium chloride solution using a triturator/amalgamator machine. It creates a paste-like material that is then placed in the tooth with an applicator tool, e.g. spatula. Biodentine® XP comes in a syringe-like cartridge that contains both the Biodentine® liquid and powder components in one. The cartridge is placed in the high-speed Biodentine® XP Mixer to combine the ingredients into a smooth, flowable paste, which is then placed directly into the tooth using the Biodentine® XP Dispenser Gun for crown indications.

Alternatively, you may apply Biodentine® XP with an amalgam carrier, a spatula, or a Root Canal Messing Gun.

Although there is no difference in terms of clinical efficacy, certain applications are generally better suited to one system over the other. Specifically, Biodentine® XP simplifies daily deep cavities restorations with direct placement in the tooth thanks to the Biodentine® XP Dispenser Gun and Biodentine® XP cartridge format.

Biodentine® is a dentine substitute with multiple clinical applications. In the crown, it can be used for temporary dentine-enamel restoration for up to 6 months, restoration of deep and/or large coronal carious lesions, restoration of cervical or radicular lesions, pulp capping (direct and indirect), and pulpotomy for diagnosed symptoms of reversible or irreversible pulpitis. In the root, Biodentine® can be used for root and furcation perforations, internal/external resorptions, apexification, retrograde surgical filling, and revitalization. 

Biodentine®’s unique combination of therapeutic and restorative properties makes it adequate for filling the tooth from pulp to crown using the Bio Bulk-Fill procedure. As only one material is used, it’s not necessary to use layering and light curing. The final enamel restoration can be placed in the same session, offering greater time-efficiency for practitioners, and fewer visits and less chair time for patients.
