Development of a radiopaque dental glass for endodontic laser applications

The aim of this study was to develop a laser-sinterable and radiopaque glass powder as a potential sealer in endodontic therapy. The hypothesis was that it is possible to dope a SiO2-Na2O-CaO-P2O5–based glass with barium (Ba) and tantalum (Ta) in such a way that the prepared glass powder can be sint...
