Upper third molar root canal treatment

Upper third molar root canal treatment 

Patient came with third molar deep carious lesion with pain and patient does not want remove third molar , so we have started root canal with upper right third molar and here is the master cone x rvg with same tooth.

Patient is doing well after treatment.

Proerties and uses of MTA

Properties

Ø  ph initial 10.2 & rises to 12.5 when set

Ø  Highly alkaline

Ø  Setting Time is 2 hrs 45min

Ø  Compressive strength 40 mpa immediately

   & 70 mpa after 21days

Ø  MTA has calcium oxide which reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide

Ø  This causes formation of calcite crystals & & fibronectin

Ø  These act as initiating step for hard tissue barrier formation

Ø  Fibronectin promotes cellular adhesion & differentiation

Uses

Ø  Repair of perforation

Ø  Root end filling material

Ø  Pulp capping agent

Ø  Apexification

Ø  Apical third filling material

Ø  Obturating material

Advances in material aspect

MTA

Ø  Mineral Trioxide Aggregate

Ø  Developed at Loma Linda University

Ø  By Dr. Mohammed Torabinejad

Ø  Initially developed as perforation repair & root end filling material .

Ø  Now finds wide application in endodontics

Material is
FDA approved & commercially available as
Pro Root MTA

Composition

Ø  Main molecules are calcium & phosphorous ions

Ø  Derived from components

   --tricalcium silicate ,

   --tricalcium aluminate ,

   --tricalcium oxide &

   --silicate oxide

Ø    Bismuth oxide imparts radio-opacity

Portland cements & MTA

Ø  Portland cements contain the same components as MTA except that MTA also contains bismuth oxide for radio-opacity
