Comparision of Healing of Periapical Lesion with Different Intracanal Medicament Using Mineral Trioxide Aggregate as Apical Barrier
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 5
Abstract
Twelve maxillary central incisors in patients aged between 15 to 30 years who suffered a traumatic injury were selected. All patients presented with incomplete development of the root apex. Conventional access cavity was prepared. The root canals were mechanically cleaned with copious irrigation using 3% NaOCl and normal saline as final irrigant. In group A, 6 patients were selected. Root canal was dried and calcium hydroxide powder mixed with normal saline in the paste form was placed for 1 week. In group B, 6 patients were selected. Root canal was dried and calcium hydroxide powder mixed with 2% Chlorhexidine in the paste form was placed for 1week . Once the canal was dry, the apical portion of the canal (4mm) was filled with MTA . The remaining portion of the root canal was obturated with gutta percha by rolled cone technique. At 6 months and 1 year follow-up period, teeth treated with calcium hydroxide powder mixed with 2% Chlorhexidine showed significantly greater percentage of healing of periapical lesion as compared to teeth treated with calcium hydroxide powder mixed with normal saline. The material MTA shows a favourable clinical significance for formation of apical plug in nonvital teeth. with open apices.
