Abstract

|
Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is widely used in endodontic therapy as a pulp-capping material, root or furcal perforation repair material, and forapexification and obturation of the root canal system. The purpose of this study was to formally document cases of MTA application in South Koreanchildren and adolescents. Through this research, the practice of using MTA will be introduced and familiarized to the clinical practitioners. This studyinvolved endodontic treatment using MTA for fractured crowns in 11- and 12-year-old. The children were followed up for 12 months until the pulpvitality was confirmed; in young permanent teeth with immature roots, the pulp is integral to the process of apexogenesis. These observationalresults regarding the use of MTA as an apexification material in non-vital immature permanent incisors appear to provide promising results in thesearch for new materials to meet existing endodontic needs.
