Recent Advances in Root Canal Obturation

Recent advances in root canal obturation have significantly improved treatment outcomes through the development of bioceramic sealers, which offer superior biocompatibility, bioactivity, and antibacterial properties. and expand slightly upon setting to enhance sealing. Additionally, advanced imaging and 3D printing technologies have enabled better visualization and handling of complex canal anatomies, while hydraulic compaction techniques, including those utilizing ultrasonic activation, ensure more homogenous fills with fewer voids, further enhancing the effectiveness and predictability of root canal treatment?.
