conservative management of unset mineral trioxide aggregate root-end filling: a case report
Authors
abstract
this case report presents conservative management of unset mineral trioxide aggregate (mta) after being placed as a root-end filling material following periapical surgery. periapical surgery was indicated for a maxillary lateral incisor of a 15-year-old male due to persistent exudate and a large periapical lesion. during surgery angelus mta was placed as root-end filling. the next session it was noticed that mta had failed to completely set. in an orthograde approach, calcium-enriched mixture (cem) cement was used to obturate the root canal space. the patient was followed up for 27 months and did not exhibit any clinical signs and symptoms. radiographic images showed complete healing of the lesion.

full textSurgical replacement of huge rate of root end amalgam filling with mineral trioxide aggregate angelus: A case report
BACKGROUND AND AIM: Surgical endodontics may sometimes fail despite using root-end filling materials (REFMs). In this case report, a symptomatic right maxillary first premolar underwent periradicular surgery (PS) for replacing huge rate of amalgam with mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA).CASE REPORT: A thirty-year-old healthy woman attended with the chief complaint of recurrent swelling and absces...
full textA new mineral trioxide aggregate root-end filling technique.
Carrier and syringe-type devices are currently used to deliver mineral trioxide aggregate as a root-end filling material. In certain surgical situations these devices may be too difficult to use because of the location of the surgical site and the small size of the root-end preparation. This paper describes a new technique to overcome these difficulties by the formation and delivery of mineral ...
full textCellular response to mineral trioxide aggregate root-end filling materials.
Endodontic surgical procedures involve the use of a root-end filling material to provide an apical seal and to facilitate the repair and regeneration of periradicular tissues. Whereas earlier studies typically evaluated the cytotoxicity of these materials, contemporary research has focused on their capacity to support a favourable cellular response. In vitro tissue culture techniques have demon...
full textLongitudinal sealing ability of mineral trioxide aggregate as a root-end filling material.
This study evaluated the ability of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) to seal the root end effectively. Seventy-six single-rooted, extracted human teeth were cleaned and shaped using a step-back technique. After root-end resection and ultrasonic preparation, 72 root sections were randomly allocated to three groups and filled with dental amalgam and cavity liner, Super-EBA, or MTA. Microleakage w...
full textComparison of microleakage with three different thicknesses of mineral trioxide aggregate as root-end filling material.
The aim of this study was to compare the microleakage at three different thicknesses of mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) as a root-end filling material. Ninety extracted human maxillary incisor teeth were selected and the root canals of the teeth were cleaned, shaped and obturated with gutta percha and AH-plus sealer. Teeth were randomly divided into 3 groups each containing 20 experimental sam...
