The purpose of this paper is to review the constituents, setting reaction, biocompatibility, cellular reactions and regenerative Potential of Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) as a root-end filling material. This paper also reviews the newer root end materials and their biocompatibility in comparison to MTA.The first publication on the material was in November 1993. Hence anelectronic search of scientific papers from November 1993 to July 2015 was done using databases MEDLINE-PubMed, Cochrane-CENTRAL and EMBASE search engines to include relevant scientific citations from the peer-reviewed journals published in English.. Specific searches on constituents, setting reaction and interaction of MTA with the periradicular tissue,biocompatibility of MTA retrograde filling material, cellular reaction to periodontal ligament cells andbone regeneration cells was accomplished. Based on the assessment and screening of the papers, it can be concluded that MTA showed minimal inflammatory reactions, survival of periodontal ligament cells, presence of consistent cementum and goodbone healing potential.
