Conditions

Iatrogenic Perforation of Primary Molars

Brief summary

Furcal perforation is one of the most challenging procedural accidents during pulpotomy of primary molars and should be sealed as soon as possible to prevent bacterial invasion at perforation site and subsequent tooth extraction. The aim of the study is to compare bioceramics versus MTA as root repair material for treatment of furcal perforation in primary molars
