Summary
Calcium hydroxide is generally preferred in endodontics as an intracanal medicament due to its antimicrobial and biological effects. However, the antimicrobial effect of calcium hydroxide is limited. A new calcium silicate-based root canal medicament has been developed as an alternative to calcium hydroxide-based medicaments.
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of calcium silicate-based root canal medicament on antibacterial, antifungal activity, and postoperative pain in root canal-treated teeth with periapical lesions.
