RESUMEN
NeoMTA is a commercially available tricalcium silicate-based cement intended for contact with pulp and periradicular tissues. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the outcomes of non-surgical root canal treatments with NeoMTA obturations. Patients were treated in a private endodontic practice between 2015 and 2018. All cases, including initial treatments and retreatments, were either fully obturated with NeoMTA, or using gutta-percha with NeoMTA as an endodontic sealer. Outcomes were assessed using follow-up examination data with digital periapical radiographs with a minimum of a 1-year recall. Teeth were classified based on the clinical examination as: healed/healing (success), or non-healed (failure). 265 teeth were included with an average follow-up time of 1.3 years. The overall success rate was 91.7%. Only the presence of a pre-operative periapical radiolucency was found to significantly affect success. Comparison of obturation techniques demonstrated no effect on outcomes. NeoMTA is suitable for endodontic obturation.
