Summary
Radiographic evidence shows that AH Plus Bioceramic sealer can reduce within the root canal after nonsurgical retreatment. This reduction does not consistently predict treatment success, necessitating further research.
Area of Science:
- Endodontics
- Biomaterials Science
- Radiology
Background:
- Nonsurgical root canal retreatment aims to eliminate intraradicular infection and obturate the canal space.
- Calcium silicate-based sealers (CSBS) are increasingly used in endodontic procedures.
- Understanding sealer behavior post-retreatment is crucial for predicting treatment outcomes.
