Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate and to compare the physical properties and chemical composition of MTA with those of commercially available pulp- capping agents.Our results demonstrate that the physical properties of MTA are as good as those of the 2 commercial dental pulp-capping agents used for comparison.
