Application of Intracanal Medicaments: A Review
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2019, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
Elimination of microorganisms from the root canal is the main procedure for endodontic treatment. Cleaning and shaping is not so much effective for reducing bacterial count in root canals. This procedure may fail due to survival of resistant microorganisms in dentinal tubules and canals due to inaccessibility of mechanical instrument and irrigation. Non-toxic Intracanal medicament are capable of destroying bacteria, reducing inflammation and stimulating hard tissue formation which is useful in success of root canal treatment after completion of chemomechanical preparation. The antimicroial activities of medicaments act against obligate and facultative anaerobic bacteria commonly found in root canals. Irrigants and invasive medicaments can be adopted for chemical treatment of root canals. Comprehensive research is required to identify a suitable intracanal medicament because no such medicament completely fulfills all the categories. However, Calcium Hydroxide is a gold standard medicament with many disadvantages.
