Biodentine is a calcium silicate/calcium carbonate/zirconium dioxide/water-based dental replacement biomaterial, significantly outperforming the stiffness and hardness properties of chemically similar construction cement pastes. We here report the first systematic micromechanical investigation of Biodentine, combining grid nanoindentation with ultrasonic testing and micromechanical modeling. Histograms of nanoindentation-probed hardness and elastic modulus, comprising more than 5700 values each, are very well represented by the superposition of three log-normal distributions (LNDs). Most of the data (74%) belong to the intermediate LND, representing highly dense calcite-reinforced hydration products with on-average more than 60GPa elastic modulus and 3GPa hardness. The remaining data refer, on the one hand, to lower density hydration products, and on the other hand, to single-micron-sized unhydrated clinker and zirconium-dioxide inclusions. Micromechanical homogenization of these three material phases delivers elastic properties of the overall cement paste material, which significantly exceed those probed by more than 300 ultrasonic tests performed in the kHz and MHz regime. This indicates the presence of micro-defects, which slightly weaken the otherwise highly optimized biomaterial system.
