One-step apexification using mineral trioxide aggregate(MTA) has been reported as an alternative treatment modality with more benefits than the use of long-term calcium hydroxide for teeth with open apex.However,orthograde placement of MTA is a challenging procedure in terms of length control.This case series describes the sequence of events following apical extrusion of MTA into the periapical area during a one-step apexification procedure for maxillary central incisor with an infected immature apex.Detailed long-term observation revealed complete resolution of the periapical radiolucent lesion around the extruded MTA.These cases revealed that direct contact with MTA had no negative effects on healing of the periapical tissues.However,intentional MTA overfilling into the periapical lesion is not to be recommended.
One-step apexification using mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) has been reported as an alternative treatment modality with more benefits than the use of long-term calcium hydroxide for teeth with open apex. Home, orthograde placement of MTA is a challenging procedure in terms of length control. This case series describes the sequence of events following apical extrusion of MTA into the periapical area during a one-step apexification procedure for maxillary central incisor with an infected immature apex. Did long long-term observation revealed complete resolution of the periapical radiolucent lesion around the extruded MTA.These cases revealed that direct contact with MTA had no negative effects on healing of the periapical tissues .However, intentional MTA overfilling into the periapical lesion is not to be recommended.
