Evaluation of Outcomes of Recent Materials Used for Single Visit Apexification

Journal Title: Journal of Advanced Medical and Dental Sciences Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 6

Abstract

Background: To evaluate outcomes of recent materials Used for Single Visit Apexification. Objectives: To assess the clinical and radiographical outcomes of MTA and Biodentine when used for single visit apexification. Data Source: Two internet sources of evidence were used in the search of appropriate papers satisfying the study purpose: the National Library of Medicine (MEDLINE PubMed) and Google Scholar. Study Eligibility Criteria: The following criteria was used to select the studies: 1. The Inclusion criteria were article in English having detailed summary were searched, and studies published between 1st January 2005 to 31st December 2016 were selected, Studies which give information about Grey MTA, White MTA and Biodentine used for single visit Apexification, Studies done on adults aged more than 18 years, case reports and clinical studies for Apexification. 2. The exclusion criteria were review, abstracts, letters to editors, editorials and in vitro studies and Studies assessing different materials used for multiple visit apexification. Intervention: Outcome of single visit apexification with recent materials (MTA and Biodentine) Results: 78 articles out of which 15 articles were selected. The papers were screened, as a second step, full text papers were obtained when they fulfilled the criteria of the study aim. However, articles which assessed the clinical and radiographical outcomes of MTA and Biodentine when used for single visit apexification were selected. Finally a total of 11 articles were included of which 5 were selected for this review. Limitations: There are few limitations not addressed in the studies. There were limited full text articles available for this study to analyze. Conclusion: On comparing outcome of MTA and biodentine for single visit apexification, Biodentine showed greater properties and hence can be considered a novel material for single visit apexification procedures. Future Implications: Further comparative studies are required.
