Area of Science:

  • Dentistry
  • Endodontics
  • Surgical Procedures

Background:

  • Endodontic surgery requires effective root end filling materials for successful outcomes.
  • Recent literature has focused on evaluating various materials for apexification and sealing capabilities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the current literature on endodontic surgery.
  • To identify and assess the efficacy of root end filling materials used in endodontic procedures.

Main Methods:

  • Comprehensive literature search of recent publications on endodontic surgery and root end filling materials.
  • Analysis of studies focusing on leakage and success rates of different filling materials.
  • Review of articles related to treatment planning and surgical instruments.

Main Results:

  • Reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol cements, specifically IRM and SuperEBA, demonstrated consistent apex sealing.
  • These materials proved effective in both leakage and success rate studies.
  • Relevant literature on treatment planning and surgical armamentaria was also evaluated.

Conclusions:

  • Reinforced zinc oxide-eugenol cements are highly recommended for root end filling in endodontic surgery due to their sealing efficacy.
  • Further research may explore long-term outcomes and alternative materials.
  • Effective treatment planning and appropriate surgical armamentaria are crucial for successful endodontic surgical procedures.
