Mineral trioxide aggregate and other bioactive endodontic cements: an updated overview – part I: vital pulp therapy

TL;DR: The term 'bioactive endodontic cements (BECs)', which seems more appropriate for these materials because, in spite of differences in their chemical compositions, bioactivity is a common property for all of them, is suggested.

Comparison of CaOH with MTA for direct pulp capping: a PBRN randomized clinical trial.

TL;DR: This large randomized clinical trial provided confirmatory evidence for a superior performance with MTA as a direct pulp-capping agent as compared with CaOH when evaluated in a practice-based research network for up to 2 yrs.
