The aim of this study was to investigate the microhardness and microstructural features of newer tricalcium silicate materials: TheraCal LC, mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), biodentine (BD), and Endosequence Root Repair Material (ERRM) putty, after exposure to acidic environments in comparison with distilled water.
