To make a review on the general characteristics of bio-dentin.
Bio-dentin is a calcium-silicate based material that has drawn attention in recent years and has been advocated to be used in various clinical applications, such as root perforations, apexifications, resorptions, retrograde fillings, pulp capping procedures and dentin replacement. Therefore, this provides a general picture regarding the findings about various characteristics of the material.
