Abstract:
Apical sealing with proper retrograde filling material and technique is the key factor for successful apical surgery. In order to provide impeccable apical sealing and healing, various mechanical and chemical characteristics of retrograde filling material is required.MTA has been used as the gold standard of retrograde filling due to its unprecedented advantages. As MTA has long setting time and difficult handling properties, premixed putty type bioceramic material has been newly developed. For efficient retrofilling with premixed putty type biocreamic material, ‘Lid technique’ was also proposed. The following cases present apical surgery using newly developed premixed putty type bioceramic material with Lid technique.
