Comparative evaluation of bioactive calcium silicate coating on functionalized gutta-percha and its effect on bioceramic sealer wettability – An in vitro study
Functionalized GP with a nanostructured calcium silicate thin film provides better wettability with AH Plus bioceramic sealer. Surface modifications of GP were improved by pretreatments, resulting in enhanced coatings. Among the pretreatment methods, plasma pretreatment resulted in superior calcium silicate coating and sealer wettability.
