Abstract

Usage of intracanal medicaments is a routine procedure in root canal treatment. Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) is one of the most popular intracanal materials that has been reported to work efficaciously in decreasing the microbial load and thereby increasing the prognosis of the treatment. However, the mechanism of accurate placement of the material is often a challenge for the practitioner. This study compared the efficacy of five different delivery methods for placement of Ca(OH)2 medicament into the root canal and its evaluation using CBCT (Cone Beam Computed Tomography). 100 extracted human single-rooted teeth were decoronated to standardize the root length and were subsequently prepared with Protaper Gold endodontic rotary files in a sequential manner. After cleaning and shaping the roots were divided into five groups based on five delivery techniques of Ca(OH)2 paste (Ultracal XS) based on group 1: Hand K files; group 2: rotary lentulospirals; group 3: EndoActivator; group 4: Ultrasonic Tip and group 5: NaviTips. Two parameters including the volume of voids and apical limit of the root canal fillings were observed under CBCT and analyzed statistically using One Way ANOVA and Bonferroni test. The void volume percentage was lowest in the Ultrasonic Tip group followed by the EndoActivator group, K file group, Navitip group, and Lentulospiral Group respectively (p <0.05). Similarly, apical limit filling measurement was closest to the apex in the Ultrasonic group followed by Endoactivatorgroup, Navitip group, Lentulospiral group, and K file group respectively (p<0.01). In conclusion, none of the 5 delivery methods could completely fill the root canal system, nor could these material systems reach the apex, although superior compaction of calcium hydroxide and the best apical limit filling was observed in the Ultrasonic Tip group. This finding may indeed help clinicians for better usage and placement of Ca(OH)2 intracanally and more studies and development regarding the same can be assessed in the future.

Abstract

Invasive cervical resorption is a relatively uncommon form of a chronic inflammatory process that results in loss of dentine and is usually initiated in the pulp space. It begins as a localised resorptive process that initiates in the area of the root beneath the epithelial attachment and the coronal part of the alveolar process. The lesion is mainly detected on radiographs and exhibits no external signs. The limitations of conventional radiography make Cone Beam Computed Tomography (CBCT) an effective and accurate method of diagnosing root resorptions. The tooth is normally asymptomatic, and the diagnosis is usually made based on a routine examination. Most authors refer to dental trauma, whitening agents, and orthodontic treatment as aetiologic factors. This disorder necessitates a thorough study of the pathologic process in order to determine the source and stop the resorptive phenomenon. The treatment should seek to completely remove the resorptive defect and rebuild it with an appropriate filling substance. Biodentine, a calcium silicate-based material, can be used to fill resorptive defects in the teeth. Furthermore, biodentine has some desirable additional properties over Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA), such as improved antibacterial properties, bioactivity-inducing hard tissue formation, good handling, self-adhesion to dentine, and shorter setting time. Hence, this article presents a case report of external cervical resorption of the maxillary central incisor. Biodentine along with collagen membrane was used to fill the resorptive defect. One year radiographic follow-up showed stability of the resorption site. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
