Description
DIA-ROOT BIO MTA Root Repair is a bioactive mineral trioxide aggregate material designed for endodontic repair and pulp therapy procedures. It provides excellent sealing ability, high biocompatibility, and predictable clinical performance.
This material supports tissue healing and regeneration while maintaining dimensional stability and marginal integrity.
Clinical Indications
Dentists use this material for:
-
Direct pulp capping
-
Pulpotomy procedures
-
Root perforation repair
-
Furcal perforation management
-
Root-end filling (retrograde filling)
-
Apexification procedures
It creates a hermetic seal and prevents bacterial microleakage in complex endodontic cases.
Pulp Capping
When applied over exposed pulp, the material forms a biocompatible seal and stimulates dentin bridge formation. Its low solubility ensures long-term marginal integrity.
It protects the pulp tissue and supports healing without compromising microcirculation.
Root Perforation Repair
The material effectively seals root and furcal perforations. Its sealing ability reduces bacterial penetration and promotes tissue regeneration in periapical areas.
Root-End Filling
During surgical endodontics, it provides a stable apical seal. It prevents irritants from passing into periradicular tissues and supports osteoblastic activity.

Bio MTA Root Repair Mixing Instructions
-
Dispense the powder from the capsule onto a mixing pad.
(Recommended ratio: 0.5 g powder / 0.225 g distilled water) -
Mix with distilled water for approximately 30 seconds until a thick, paste-like consistency forms.
-
Place the mixed material into an appropriate carrier.
-
Deliver the material directly into the treatment site.
If the mixture thickens prematurely, add a minimal amount of distilled water to adjust consistency.
SEM Performance
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images demonstrate improved surface sealing after hydration. The hydrated structure forms a dense matrix that enhances marginal adaptation and sealing capability.
