Direction of development of root canal treatment

Root canal treatment is the dental pulp disease, the periodical go far the most thorough form of treatment is appropriate disinfection by removing necrotic material within the root canal, using specific materials in root canal filling, to prevent the occurrence of periapical lesions development, and promote healing of periapical lesions a relatively good treatment.

Commonly used treatment has undergone root canal treatment as the oral cavity over a hundred years, with the development of science and technology content has become indispensable to determine the treatment effect factors. Hot gutta percha filling can be regarded as the current international advanced root canal filling method, including the vertical compaction of warm gutta technology and thermoplastic gutta percha injection filling technology.

Hot gutta-percha vertical condensation technique is to fill in the root canal gutta percha is heated to soften and the vertical pressure of the apical direction, gutta-percha into a tight overall, filling the root canal of each anatomical region. Thermoplastic gutta percha injection filling is dental supplies heated to soften, good fluidity of the gutta percha into the root canal system with a specially designed syringe, and then the vertical pressure for the pressure, the gutta percha root canal filling closely.

Compared with the traditional cold gutta-percha root canal filling, warm gutta root canal filled with a lot of advantages: First, the method of filling a flexible, high accuracy can be achieved by about 0.5 mm apical; three-dimensional filling allows root canal more closed, effectively filling collateral root canal, canal and; closed, tightly closed root canal, to prevent re-infection, the stability of the long-term treatment effect; stability, gutta-percha can form a whole to facilitate further treatment.

Hot gutta percha filling technique is more efficient, safer, faster, more thorough root canal filling system. Therefore, the hot gutta percha root canal is not only to improve the quality of treatment, root canal and tooth retention rate is important, the future direction of development of root canal filling treatment.
