This study presents a single-visit apexification technique using calcium hydroxide powder for pulpless teeth. It offers an efficient alternative when traditional methods are not feasible due to patient factors.

Area of Science:

  • Endodontics
  • Dental materials science

Background:

  • Traditional apexification may be impractical due to patient time, financial, psychological, or aesthetic constraints.
  • Pulpless teeth require an apical barrier for successful treatment.

Observation:

  • A case report details an alternative apexification method.
  • Calcium hydroxide powder was utilized to create an apical barrier in a pulpless tooth.

Findings:

  • The described technique successfully developed an apical barrier in a single visit.
  • This method provides an easy and efficient approach to apexification.

Implications:

  • This alternative apexification technique offers a viable solution for patients unable to undergo traditional procedures.
