fa Resilon: a comprehensive literature review اندودانتیکس Endodontics پژوهشي Research Bonding to dentin is a promising property, which can prevent leakage and improve the sealing ability of endodontic filling materials. Resilon was developed and recommended initially because the existing root canal filling materials did not bond to root canal dentin. Since its introduction in 2004, numerous reports have been published regarding various aspects of this material. This article aimed to review existing literature on Resilon’s physical and chemical properties as well as leakage studies. Articles on Resilon were collected using electronic and hand searching methods from May 2004 to April 2012. Having some antibacterial and antifungal properties, it is a promising material for root canal filling. Despite the presence of numerous case reports and case series regarding its applications, there are few designed research studies on clinical applications of this material.<hr><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left direction: ltr unicode-bidi: embed"><b>Source: </b>Journal of Dental Research, Dental Clinics, Dental Prospects </p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: left direction: ltr unicode-bidi: embed"><a href="http://dentistry.tbzmed.ac.ir/joddd/index.php/joddd/article/view/417" target="_blank"><font color="#0000ff">Full Text</font></a></p> antibacterial activity, chemical and physical properties, clinical outcome, cytotoxicity, disinfection, leakage, Resilon, retreatment 0 0 http://idai.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-32-3234&slc_lang=fa&sid=1 Mehrdad Lotfi 100319475328460014905 100319475328460014905 No Department of Endodontic, Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran Negin Ghasemi Neginghasemi64@gmail.com 100319475328460014906 100319475328460014906 Yes Department of Endodontic, Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran Saeed Rahimi 100319475328460014907 100319475328460014907 No Dental and Periodontal Diseases Research Center, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran /Department of Endodontic, Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran Sepideh Vosough Hosseini 100319475328460014908 100319475328460014908 No Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Pathology, Faculty of Dentistry, Tabriz University of Medical Sciences, Tabriz, Iran Mohammad Ali Saghiri 100319475328460014909 100319475328460014909 No Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences, University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public health, Madison, WI, USA
