Endodontics is a branch of dentistry, in which the development of materials is particularly evident. This is due to increasingly higher standards of treatment, providing more and better tretment results. The aim of the study was to gather information on the properties of the MTA material. Materials and methods constituted a comprehensive, systematic review of the literature published in the years 1990-2015 in the database PubMed and GBL on the use of MTA in endodontics. The results and conclusions of the work indicate that this material perfectly fulfills its role in the cases of pulp capping, perforations, resorptions, apeksogenesis apeksyfication - procedures, which are important challenges of modern endodontics.
