Use of mineral trioxide aggregate for retreatment of a tooth with large periapical lesion, wide-open apices and vertical root fracture

Abstract: Chronic periapical lesions in necrotic teeth with open apex are difficult to manage. The situation becomes more complex if the tooth has a fracture line. This case report describes the management of a traumatised tooth that had already undergone unsuccessful endodontic treatment with a large periapical lesion and open apex along with a fracture line in the root. An attempt was made to save the tooth by using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) cement for orthograde filling, retrograde filling and also for sealing… Show more

“…For this procedure, the calcium silicate cements are used to create a coronal seal. The calcium silicate cements have also been used to treat dens evaginatus, a rare odontogenic developmental anomaly, 243,244 and to reinforce vertically 245,246 or horizontally cracked [247][248][249][250] teeth to avoid their immediate extraction. Remineralization of dentin has also been investigated, but only in vitro.…”
