Summary

This prospective clinical study aimed to evaluate the healing outcomes after root canal treatment using a bioceramic sealer called BioRoot RCS in combination with a technique known as hydraulic condensation. Root canal treatment is a common procedure used to remove infection and preserve teeth. Bioceramic materials have recently gained attention due to their ability to support natural healing, form a strong seal in the root canal, and stimulate tissue regeneration.

A total of 66 permanent teeth from patients diagnosed with either irreversible pulpitis or apical periodontitis were treated and followed over a 12-month period. All treatments were completed in a single visit and followed a standardized protocol using sonic irrigation and a calibrated drying method. The sealer used-BioRoot RCS-is a bioactive, calcium silicate-based material that hardens in the presence of moisture and promotes healing.

Patients were monitored clinically and radiographically using the Periapical Index (PAI), which is a scale that measures the status of periapical tissue (area around the root tip). Healing was considered successful if the treated teeth remained symptom-free and showed favorable radiographic changes over time.

Conditions

  • Irreversible Pulpitis
  • Apical Periodontitis

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Hydraulic Condensation Root Canal Obturation with BioRoot RCS

Root canal obturation using the hydraulic condensation technique combined with BioRoot RCS, a bioceramic calcium silicate-based sealer. Treatment includes standardized irrigation with sonic activation and drying using a single calibrated paper point without alcohol. The sealer sets hydraulically in the presence of moisture, promotes hard tissue formation, and provides a durable, bioactive seal supporting periapical healing.
