ROOT END FILLING MATERIALS AND RECENT ADVANCES: A REVIEW

Kanchan Bhagat, Munish Goel, Neeru Bhagat

Abstract :

 The main objective of an endodontic procedure is to obtain a hermetic seal between root canal space and the periapical tissues and when this is not achieved by an orthograde approach, then a root end filling technique is used. Numerous materials have been suggested for use as root–end fillings. Earlier amalgam was considered the material of choice but recently MTA has been developed which fulfils almost all the requirements of an ideal root end filling material. This article reviews different root–end filling materials and compare their biocompatibility, sealing ability, anti–bacterial effects and microleakage.
