In recent years, calcium silicate-based materials have been widely used in the field of endodontics due to their many favorable properties. When it comes to the use of materials that have direct contact with the connective tissue, the biocompatibility of the material is the most important feature. In addition, the ideal repair material should be non-toxic, harden in a moist environment, not be affected by blood, have good sealing properties against bacteria and tissue fluids, release calcium hydroxide, induce bone formation, have antibacterial properties and have sufficient hardness. Calcium silicate- based materials contains hydrophilic compounds such as tricalcium silicate, dicalcium silicate. Calcium silicate-based materials have been used in vital pulp treatment, apexification, perforation repair, treatment of internal root resorption and root end filling procedures. Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is a calcium silicate based filling material that has gained popularity and has become a gold standard since it started to be used in the field of endodontics. Despite the numerous advantages of MTA, it has disadvantages like long setting time, requiring more than one visit due to the necessity of placing wet cotton pellet on it, difficult handling properties, discoloration effect especially on anterior teeth, the presence of toxic elements in its composition, high cost and difficult to remove. Therefore, the search for the ideal root end filling material is still ongoing today. Some of these materials have the potential to be an alternative to MTA or even to replace MTA. The purpose of this review is to provide comprehensive information about physicochemical and biological properties of current calcium silicate-based materials.
