An In Vitro Study to Evaluate the Quality of Root Canal Filling of (MTA) and (PC)


Abstract in English

The quality of root canal filling is considered the key of the successful endodontic treatment, because the one of goals of root canal obturation is to obtain three-dimensional and complete sealing. Therefore, The aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the quality of root canal filling of White-colored Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (WMTA) and Gray-colored Portland Cement (GPC).
