Subject: [roots] [ROOTS] Large apex Contd.
Hi all,
As a continuation of the recent thread on Large apex.........
Today's case.
I could have filled this case with apical MTA downpack and GP back fill
I do not have CaSO4 in my practice and i havent used apical matrix as described by Marga.
The apex was approx # 120. used paperpoints for WL determination.
No bleeding from apex after I removed the CaOH (u can see bit of caoh in pic 3)
WL was 22mm and I place the dovgan carrier to 20 mm with MTA. packed with hand pluggers and after filling
5mm( may be too much) I place a plugger on the MTA and use ultrasonic indirectly to pack it. I use very
less power You can see the MTA being condensed.
Final fill with composite (could have done better) - Venkat



Hi Venkat....... What level of curing intensity is required for curing composite in the deeper
portions of the canal - Sachin
Hi Sachin,
I do not know the answer to your question.
I do not use light cure composite in the canal. Its either self or dual cure. Some times resin modified GIC.
I will be interested to know (from others on this forum) if there is any specific light that can be used
to cure deeper portions of the canal - Venkat
