Summary

Could the clinical and radiographic success of Nano Silver Particles and Calcium Hydroxide be comparable to that of Triple Antibiotic Paste as antibacterial agents for Lesion Sterilization and Tissue Repair (LSTR) in necrotic second primary molars?

Conditions

  • Root Canal Infection

Interventions

OTHER

Nano silver particles and calcium hydroxide

Combination of two materials that can possibly eradicate the mixed odontogenic infection in the periapical area and dentinal tubules in necrotic primary second molars.

OTHER

TAP

Triple antibiotic paste (TAP) is considered the gold standard in LSTR. It is a combination of ciprofloxacin, metronidazole and minocycline. Many anaerobic bacteria are resistant to ciprofloxacin. Hence, it is often used with metronidazole in treating mixed infections to compensate for its limited scope. Therefore, TAP can affect gram-negative, gram-positive, and anaerobic bacteria, and this combination can be effective against odontogenic microorganisms.
