ABSTRACT
The aim of this study is to evaluate the antimicrobial activity of the fast-setting iRoot Fast Set Root Repair Material (iRoot FS), Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) and Biodentine. The materials were freshly mixed or set for 1 and 7 days to conduct the agar diffusion test, direct contact test and carry-over effect test against E. faecalis and P. gingivalis, and the pH values were also measured. The data were analyzed by an analysis of variance and one-way ANOVA or Dunnett's T3 test, and the Tukey's post hoc test for multiple comparisons (α = 0.05). In the direct contact test, all three materials showed good antibacterial activity after setting for 20 min. The antibacterial properties of the three materials decreased with the increase of setting time (p < 0.05). The suspension of all the three materials showed high pH values (11-12) and no significant difference was observed (p > 0.05). With the extension of setting time, the pH of iRoot FS and Biodentine slightly decreased (p < 0.05). Fresh iRoot FS, Biodentine, and MTA killed E. faecalis and P. gingivalis effectively, but their antimicrobial effect decreased after 24 h, and distinctly decreased after 7 days after mixing. iRoot FS, Biodentine, and MTA showed a tendency of alkalinity during this 7-day experiment.
