“…Furthermore, the resin cement showed enhanced resistance to shear stress, and the access cavity was sealed with a hybrid light cure composite resin, to ensure an adequate coronal seal. [ 12 13 ] One of the drawbacks of PMMA was, it was less radio opaque. In future, few radio opaque materials like Barium Sulfate could be added to the endodontic obturator.…”

The complex anatomy of the blunderbuss root canal often poses a major challenge to accomplish adequate obturation for a biological seal. Moreover, the roll-cone, Gutta-percha obturation technique, which is routinely practiced, also results in a mismatch and failure to configure to the canal volume in the absence of an apical barrier. Hence, an attempt has been made to tailor-make a heat polymerized polymethyl methacrylate resin as an endodontic obturator, to match the canal volume, which has been ascertained by Spiral computed tomography and mathematical integration. A one-year follow-up examination has revealed that the tooth is asymptomatic, with the repair of the lesion evident radiographically.
