PARIS, France: ACTIVA BioACTIVE-CEMENT, developed by dental research company and manufacturer Pulpdent, has received the top rating from REALITY in the category of self-adhesive, dual-cured resin cements. REALITY, an online publication that evaluates dental products, has published a review on this aesthetic bioactive dental cement, which imitates the physical and chemical properties of teeth. It contains no bisphenol A or derivatives and no bis-GMA.
Some conventional dental cements can wash away over time, leaving teeth vulnerable to acid attack and additional decay. The result can be painful and costly for patients, who find themselves needing replacement crowns or, if the decay is extensive, a root canal therapy or even a dental implant.
Bioactive cements aim to offer a more effective solution for patients. Such cements help protect teeth from acid attack caused by dietary sugars. ACTIVA BioACTIVE-CEMENT responds to pH changes in the oral environment through the release and recharge of calcium, phosphate and fluoride. This chemistry supports the natural remineralisation process and helps form a seal between the material and the tooth. The protective seal helps prevent new cavities from forming under dental crowns and bridges.
According to the REALITY review, dentist evaluators were generally pleased with the consistency and handling of ACTIVA BioACTIVE-CEMENT. They found that the cement “cleans up nicely” and used the cement for both single and multi-unit restorations. REALITY reported “virtually no dislodgements and post-cementation sensitivity”. One evaluator used ACTIVA BioACTIVE-CEMENT to salvage failing crowns in medically compromised patients.
