Objectives:
Recently, it was shown that NanoMTA improved the setting time and promoted a better hydration process
which prevents washout and the dislodgment of this novel biomaterial in comparison with WTMA. This study analyzed
the compressive strength of ProRoot WMTA (Dentsply), a NanoWMTA (Kamal Asgar Research Center), and Bioaggregate (Innovative Bioceramix) after its exposure to a range of environmental pH conditions during hydration.
Study Design: After mixing the cements under aseptic condition and based on the manufacturers' recommendations,
the cements were condensed with moderate force using plugger into 9 × 6 mm split molds. Each type of cement was
then randomly divided into three groups (n=10). Specimens were exposed to environments with pH values of 4.4, 7.4,
or 10.4 for 3 days. Cement pellets were compressed by using an Instron testing machine. Values were recorded and
compared. Data were analyzed by using one-way analysis of variance and a post hoc Tukey's test.
Results:
After 3 days, the samples were solid when probed with an explorer before removing them from the molds.
The greatest mean compressive strength 133.19±11.14 MPa was observed after exposure to a pH value of 10.4 for
NanoWMTA. The values decreased to 111.41±8.26 MPa after exposure to a pH value of 4.4. Increasing of pH had a significant effect on the compressive strength of the groups (p<0.001). The mean compressive strength for the NanoWMTA was statistically higher than for ProRoot WMTA and Bioaggregate (p<0.001). Moreover, increasing of pH
values had a significant effect on compressive strength of the experimental groups (p<0.001).
Conclusion:
The compressive strength of NanoWMTA was significantly higher than WMTA and Bioaggregate; the
more acidic the environmental pH, the lower was the compressive strength.
