College of Dental Sciences, Modi Nagar, Uttar Pradesh Abstract MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) has recently been advocated as a material to serve as an apical barrier for root end induction and was reported to produce equivalent amounts of apical hard tissue with no more inflammation than calcium hydroxide or osteogenciprotein-1. Successful performance of a one-step procedure may benefit both the patient and the practitioner because of the reduced amount of office time required. The potential problem of patient compliance is also reduced, and it appears that reopening the root canal and recleaning during multiple visits may disturb the process of apexification. In this article, case report of apexification with MTA and 6 month follow up with formation of apical hard tissue is shown. Top Keywords MTA, Apical Barrier, Apexification. Top |
