Radiopacity and cytotoxicity of Portland cement associated with niobium oxide micro and nanoparticles

Radiopacity and cytotoxicity of Portland cement associated with niobium oxide micro and nanoparticles

Objective Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) is composed of Portland Cement (PC) and bismuth oxide (BO). Replacing BO for niobium oxide (NbO) microparticles (Nbµ) or nanoparticles (Nbη) may improve radiopacity and bioactivity. The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiopacity and cytotoxicity of...
