Influence of Temporary Filling Material Composition on the Success Rate of Endodontic Treatments

Summary

The aim of this study is through a randomized clinical trial, double blind, splitmouth, evaluate the success rate (contamination rate, periapical lesion relapse and the presence of exudate between the treatment's sessions) of endodontically treated teeth that required filling with temporary material. The composition of the temporary filling material (cement (Based on calcium hydroxide; and based on mineral trioxide aggregate) will be evaluated. Data will be collected, tabulated and submitted to statistical analysis.
