The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiographic success of Sealapex pulpectomies in primary teeth.
Root canals of 62 primary teeth were filled with Sealapex. The tooth was restored with a stainless steel crown, amalgam, compomer, or glass ionomer cement. Clinical and radiographic evaluations of pulpectomized teeth were performed for up to 36 months afterward.
The overall success rate was 92.3%. During the follow-up period, 4 teeth (7.7%) showing periapical lesion and pathologic resorption were extracted and rated as "failure." There were no statistically significant differences between success rate and extent of root canal filling material (P > .05). None of the fillings showed complete resorption in the canals. There were no significant differences among the restorative materials (P > .05).
Based on the results of this study it can be concluded that Sealapex can be used successfully in root canal treatment for primary teeth.
本研究旨在评估乳牙使用Sealapex进行牙髓摘除术的临床和影像学成功率。
62颗乳牙的根管用Sealapex充填。牙齿用不锈钢冠、银汞合金、复合体或玻璃离子水门汀进行修复。术后对牙髓摘除的牙齿进行长达36个月的临床和影像学评估。
总体成功率为92.3%。在随访期间，4颗牙齿（7.7%）出现根尖周病变和病理性吸收，被拔除并评定为“失败”。成功率与根管充填材料的范围之间无统计学显著差异（P >.05）。所有充填物在根管内均未显示完全吸收。修复材料之间无显著差异（P >.05）。
基于本研究结果，可以得出结论，Sealapex可成功用于乳牙根管治疗。
