Importance of Coronal Seal: Preventing Coronal Leakage In Endodontics

Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 12

Abstract

The primary goal of endodontic treatment is to keep the pulpal space free of microorganisms and to prevent recurrent infection. Oral bacteria and their by‑ products can penetrate this space if there is inadequate coronal or apical seal. Microbial contamination through the occlusal surface, leading to coronal leakage constitutes a large percentage of failed root canal treatments. The purpose of this article is to highlight the clinical and biological implications of coronal leakage and the means to prevent the same.
