Management of Open Apex Using MTA and Reinforcement of Weekend Root with Customized Fiber Post- a Case Report
Journal Title: International Journal of Health Sciences and Research - Year 2017, Vol 7, Issue 7
Abstract
Management of non-vital teeth with open apex is a challenge to dental practitioners. In this scenario, it is difficult to maintain the obturation material within the confines of root canal without encroaching into periapical area. Apexification aims to induce apical closure of the open root apex with hard tissue barrier, against which root filling can be compacted. Also, a thin dentinal wall of canal is matter of concern. Hence, the present case report present the use of MTA to form an apical plug in open apex followed by root canal obturation using thermoplasticized gutta-percha and reinforcement of weekend root with customized fiber post.
