This case report aims to describe the management of a complex odontoma with endodontic involvement of surrounding teeth utilizing a new bioceramic cement consisting of five mineral oxides (5MO) as a retro-filling material. The patient presented for routine consultation with slight dental mobility in the antero-superior region. Upon clinical and computed tomography examination, bone rarefaction was observed in the apical region of teeth 11 and 12, external root resorption in the involved teeth and necrotic pulp of tooth 12. Root canal treatment was performed in teeth 11 and 12. Later, local surgical excision of the lesion was carried out, finding a mass with clinical features of complex odontoma, with histopathological examination of the mass confirming this diagnosis. Retro-filling of tooth 12 with 5MO was carried out. No signs and symptoms were observed over twelve-months of follow-up, with bone neoformation observed in the region. Therefore, 5MO appears to be an effective bioceramic cement that has reparative features.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
