What is the function of Metapex?
Metapex calcium hydroxide with Iodoform is a biocompatible temporary or permanent root canal sealer, for use to stimulate healing process due to the mixture of calcium hydroxide and iodoform and the induction effect of these two ingredients.
Is Metapex resorbable?
During these appointments, the follow up radiograph revealed, metapex that had extruded in the periradicular region has not resorbed; in addition, the periapical lesion was seen to have decreased in size [Table/Fig-3]. At the end of 12 months apical barrier was formed.
Can Metapex be used for Apexification?
Metapex (mixture of calcium hydroxide and iodoform) was used in our patient for apexification. A success rate of 100% was found in a study that used a calcium hydroxide- iodoform mixture as the intracanal medicament, wherein, the average time for the apical barrier to form was found to be 6.09 mnth [15].
How do you store Metapex?
Cautions:
- Do not overfill beyond the apex.
- Avoid direct exposure to sunlight.
- Keep the syringe capped all the time.
- Store in dry and cool area (10°C ~ 25°C / 50°F ~ 77°F) Improper storage can cause dryness or separation of the paste.
What is Dycal composition?
Dycal® is a paste-paste calcium hydroxide dental cement uses as pulp capping and liner in dentistry. First paste (base paste) contains titanium dioxide and barium sulphate in glycol disalicylate and second paste (catalyst paste) contains calcium hydroxide, zinc oxide and zinc stearate in ethyl toluene sulphonamide.
What is Vitapex?
Vitapex® is a premixed calcium hydroxide paste containing iodoform used as a temporary or permanent root canal filling material after pulpectomy. This paste is packaged in a convenient syringe to eliminate messy mixing.
How do you do Apexification?
The following steps are included in this procedure:
- The affected tooth is isolated using rubber dam.
- An access opening is made to reach the pulp chamber.
- A file is placed in the root canal and a radiograph is taken to establish the root length.
- Remnants of the pulp are then removed using barbed broaches and files.
What are Intracanal medicaments?
Intracanal medication comprises application of a chemical substance into the root canal in order to exert some desired therapeutic effect. The most common indication for intracanal medication is to improve disinfection after chemomechanical preparation.
What is the difference between Apexogenesis and pulpotomy?
Apexogenesis is a treatment in preserving vital pulp tissue in the apical part of a root canal to allow the completion in formation of the root apex. This clinical procedure is essentially a deep pulpotomy, aimed to preserve the pulp in immature teeth that have deep pulpal inflammation.
What is apexification Recalcification?
Apexification is a procedure used to stimulate root development or closing of the root end (i.e., open apex). An open apex is often found in teeth that are not fully developed (“immature”) or whose roots have been eroded away by a process known as resorption.
What is Ledermix?
Ledermix combines the antibiotic action of demeclocycline with the anti-inflammatory action of triamcinolone and is particularly useful as an emergency measure in endodontic therapy, where it can be used in root canals between appointments.
Why is Dycal used?
Dycal® Calcium Hydroxide Liner is a two-component, rigid-setting, self-curing material designed for use in direct and indirect pulp capping and as a protective liner under dental adhesives, varnishes, filling materials, cements, and other base materials.
What is in Vitrebond?
is a resin modified glass ionomer (RMGI) liner/base material, its composition and curing mechanism extensively described in the literature. It is recommend for use as a liner or base under composite, amalgam, metal and ceramic restorations. Vitrebond Liner/Base is not indicated for direct pulp capping.
Which cement is used in root canal?
The resin cement sealed the root canals significantly better when compared with zinc oxide eugenol and glass ionomer sealers.
What are the rules of composition in photography?
Rules of composition. Composing a good photo goes beyond just focusing on your main subject. These are some of the most common compositional techniques for photographers who want to create a visually interesting shot. Use the rule of thirds. The rule of thirds is a way of dividing frames for optimal composition.
