To evaluate the success rate of mixture of ozonated oil and zinc oxide as a primary teeth root filling material. A. None of these materials so far meet the ideal requirement of root canal filling material. An ideal filling technique should assure ... be visibly filled at the orifice with zinc oxide eugenol paste. Endoflas, a mixture of zinc oxide eugenol, calcium hydroxide, and iodoform, can be considered to be an effective root canal filling material in primary teeth as compared with zinc oxide eugenol. Background:Zinc oxide eugenol(ZOE) has long been the material of choice for obturating primary teeth,but it is resistant to resorption, might result in a deflected successor and has limited antibacterial efficacy. 10. The present study, performed in-vivo, included 30 infected primary teeth in 26 children in the age group of 3-8 years. • Disadvantages - It’s rate of resorption is slower than that of the primary tooth root. available, commonly used obturating materials for primary teeth are zinc oxide eugenol, calcium hydroxide and iodoform based pastes. Classification: It is classified by ADA with the ADA Specification N.o: 16 evaluated clinically and radiographically a mixture of zinc oxide eugenol and aloe vera as an obturating material for Pulpectomy in a total of 15 primary molars for a period of 9 months.The incidence of pain present preoperatively reduced to 86.67% postoperatively. BACKGROUND: Pulp therapy for pulpally involved primary teeth continues to be a challenge to clinicians. were used in primary teeth but none of these materials have the ideal obturating properties. ZINC OXIDE EUGENOL PASTE • It is the most commonly used root canal filling material for primary teeth. Another root canal filling material that contains zinc oxide eugenol, calcium hydroxide and iodoform is commercially available as Endoflas. Materials and method. For the success of endodontic treatment in primary teeth, the resorption of obturating material plays a vital role. The clinical research question being how effective is zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) paste as an obturating material in primary teeth pulpectomies with crown as final restorations, in its clinical as well as radiographical outcomes after a 12 or more months … • Zinc oxide eugenol paste • Calcium hydroxide • Iodoform paste 9. Several materials have been proposed for the obturation of root canals of primary teeth and, although no single material fulfills all requirements of an ideal endodontic paste filler (1), zinc oxide and eugenol cement (ZOE) has been widely used in the primary dentition (1,5). the primary teeth. The study included 60 infected primary mandibular molars which were equally divided into study group (ozonated oil-ZnO) and control group (zinc oxide-eugenol). AIM : To evaluate and compare the clinical and radiographic success of zinc oxide eugenol, metapex and endoflas as obturating materials in pulpectomy of primary teeth at 3 and 6 months follow up. Khairwa et al. 120 grossly decayed primary molars of children, aged 4 to 9 years were selected with signs or symptoms of irreversibly inflamed pulp tissue and randomly assigned to one of the four groups: zinc oxide eugenol, zinc oxide powder with 10% sodium fluoride, zinc oxide powder with Aloe vera, and Endoflas. 13.Walkhoff paste. Should not irritate the periapical tissues Various obturating materials are zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE), iodoform, Vitapex, metapex, calcium hydroxide, Endoflas, etc. Zinc oxide–eugenol cement (Fig. Zinc oxide and eugenol (ZOE) paste was the first root canal filling material to be recommended for primary teeth, as described by Sweet in 1930. Pulpectomy procedure was performed and the children were followed at regular intervals. Zinc Oxide Eugenol – When zinc oxide is mixed with eugenol, Zinc Oxide Eugenol (ZOE) cement is the result. Another material being used is a premixed calcium hydroxide and iodoform paste (Vitapex) and is claimed to be a nearly idea l root canal filling material for primary teeth. Eugenol is an essential oil with germicide activity and was first used in 1876 by Chisholm who make Zinc oxide eugenol or ZOE 7. Iodoform was also found to have an excellent healing properties and resorbtion of excess material and has been suggested as an alternate to ZOE 3,8. Unreinforced Zinc Oxide Eugenol products are still on the market, but they should only be used when strength and solubility are not critical. • Group four root canal filling materials for primary teeth.II—90.5% • Group III—88.9% • Group IV—85.0% DISCUSSION Zinc oxide-eugenol is the most frequently used root canal filling material for primary teeth. Researchers have now experimented with a new mixture consisting of propolis, which is a natural product with proven antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, and zinc oxide powder as a filling material in primary teeth. Prospective randomised clinical study. Hence the success of the treatment in such cases would depend upon complete obturation of the canal space Various materials had developed for obturation of primary teeth. Endodontic therapy has to be done to treat infected pulp. 30 teeth were divided into two groups of 15 teeth. The materials used for obturation in this study included zinc oxide propolis (ZOP) as a new paste, Endoflas, Metapex, and zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE). The main objective in paediatric dentistry is to maintain primary teeth in the oral cavity till exfoliation. Traditionally, zinc oxide eugenol was used for the purpose, until the introduction of calcium hydroxide and iodoform based materials. Recently VitapexTM paste (a mixture of iodoform 40.4%, calcium Vitapex TM. material fulfilling these ideal requirements.4,5,6 The traditional root canal filling materials for primary teeth are calcium hydroxide (Ca (OH) 2), zinc oxide (ZnO), and zinc oxide eugenol (ZnOE) with or without formocresol (FC) or iodoform paste. Zinc oxide eugenol, introduced by Bonastre in 1837 is one of the most widely used root canal filling material in primary teeth. 12.Leonardo’s paste Iodoform. Background: Zinc oxide eugenol(ZOE) has long been the material of choice for obturating primary teeth,but it is resistant to resorption, might result in a deflected successor and has limited antibacterial efficacy. Aim: To evaluate the success rate of mixture of ozonated oil and zinc oxide as a primary teeth root filling material. 8.Calcium hydroxide with sterile water 9. 2019;5:294–310 Zinc oxide eugenol (ZOE) has traditionally been used as a root filling material in primary teeth pulpectomy. Several materials have been used to fill root canals of primary teeth. which would otherwise be lost. Clin Exp Dent Res. 1. The reaction is catalysed by water and is accelerated by the presence of metal salts. so that the primary teeth can complete their function until normal exfoliation. 21.2) contains zinc oxide, rosin, and zinc acetate in the powder.The rosin increases fracture resistance and the zinc acetate is effective in accelerating the reaction rate. This study was carried out to compare zinc oxide eugenol with endoflas for pulpectomy in primary dentition. Eugenol has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties which are very useful after a pulpectomy procedure.11 It has a disadvantage in that excess Background: To establish mixture of zinc oxide and 10% sodium fluoride as a novel root canal obturating material for primary teeth.Aim: This study aims to evaluate clinical and radiographic success of a mixture of zinc oxide and 10% sodium fluoride as root canal obturating material.Settings and Design: This pilot study was conducted among 30 primary molars indicated for pulpectomy.
