چکیده

The aim of this study was to evaluate the apical microleakage of Biodentine and MTA orthograde apical plugs and to compare the effect of thickness of these biomaterials on their sealing ability. A total of eighty maxillary anterior teeth were used. The apices were removed by cutting with a diamond disc (Jota, Germany) 2 mm from the apical root end in an attempt to standardize the working length of all specimens to 15 ± 1 mm. Both materials were placed in 1-4 mm thickness as apical plugs root canal. Root canal leakage was evaluated by the fluid filtration technique. One-way ANOVA was used in order to determine normality of dispersal distribution of parameters; thereafter, results were analyzed by Kolmogorov-Smirnov test. Overall, between microleakage values of MTA and Biodentine regardless of apical plug thickness, no difference was observed. In terms of plug thickness, a statistically significant difference was observed between the subgroups of MTA and Biodentine (p < 0.05). The apical sealing ability of Biodentine was comparable to MTA at any apical plug thickness.

Apical Closure of Nonvital Permanent Teeth: 15 Months Follow-up Study of Four Cases

Obtaining a complete seal of the root canal system is a major problem in performing root canal treatment in nonvital teeth with incomplete root development and wide open apices. The aim was to study apexification using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA), clinically and radiographically over a period of 15 months. MTA was used in four cases of teeth with incomplete root development in order to ach...

Pulpal management of permanent first molars with open apices: case history.

,An eight-year-old with extensive decay in both mandibular first permanent molars was examined in October, 1970. Both molars were found to have immature roots. ,4 nonvital molar was treated to achieve apical closure followed later by conventional endodontic therapy. A vital molar was treated with a formocresol pulpotomy followed by conventional endodontic therapy. After 10 years, both molars sh...

Biodentine-a novel dentinal substitute for single visit apexification

Use of an apical plug in management of cases with open apices has gained popularity in recent years. Biodentine, a new calcium silicate-based material has recently been introduced as a dentine substitute, whenever original dentine is damaged. This case report describes single visit apexification in a maxillary central incisor with necrotic pulp and open apex using Biodentine as an apical barrie...

Revascularization procedure in an open apex tooth with external root resorption: A case report

External inflammatory root resorption (EIR) represents a challenge in endodontic practice. EIR commonly occurs after dental trauma that results in periodontal ligament injury, pulp necrosis and subsequent infection.  Treatment of EIR is based on disinfecting the root canal system through chemomechanical procedures and then filling it with calcium hydroxide or triple antibiotic paste. Dental tra...

In-vitro evaluation of microleakage of an orthograde apical plug of mineral trioxide aggregate in permanent teeth with simulated immature apices.

This in vitro study evaluated the seal created by varying depths of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) plugs placed in an orthograde fashion in five groups of 10 teeth. One group received a 2 mm thick orthograde apical plug of MTA, the second group a 5 mm apical MTA plug, and the third group a 2 mm apical MTA plug with a second 2 mm increment, 24 h later. The remaining portion of the canal in the...
