Introduction.
The aim of this study was to compare MTA with another base material, IRM, which is generally used on pulpal floor after root canal treatment, regarding their effect on the success of root canal treatment of primary teeth with furcation lesions.
Materials and Methods.
Fifty primary teeth with furcation lesions were divided into 2 groups.
Following root canal treatment, the pulpal floor was coated with MTA in the experimental group and with IRM in the control group.
Teeth were followed up considering clinical (pain, pathological mobility, tenderness to percussion and palpation, and any soft tissue pathology and sinus tract) and radiographical (pathological root resorption, reduced size or healing of existing lesion, and absence of new lesions at the interradicular or periapical area) criteria for 18 months.
For the statistical analysis, Fisher’s exact test and Pearson’s chi-square tests were used and a p value of <0.05 was considered to be statistically significant.
Results.
Although there were no statistically significant differences between two groups in terms of treatment success, lesions healed significantly faster in the MTA group.
Conclusion.
In primary teeth with furcation lesions, usage of MTA on the pulpal floor following root canal treatment can be a better alternative since it induced faster healing.
