Mineral trioxide aggregate (MtA) is a powder containing calcium silicate composed of hydrophilic particles which harden at the presence of moisture. MtA was initially introduced as a root end filling material. Due its practical advantages that include superior biocompatility, effective sealing capability, and the ability to improve regeneration of...

Management of immature root with a necrotic pulp and apical periodontitis is a challenging task. Obturation of the root canal is difficult because of lack of apical barrier for containing the root filling material. Treatment of choice in such cases is the apexification procedure, i.e., establishing an apical barrier. Calcium hydroxide has been wide...

The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of pozzolan sealers used for apexification in immature permanent teeth on the root fragility using a performance simulation in sheep teeth in vitro. The fracture resistance of 125 incisor teeth from 38 domestic sheep was evaluated by filling the root canals with AH Plus, ProRoot MTA, and the Biod...
