“…In light of the lack of absolute evidence that one paste is superior to another, many publications and books leave it up to the clinician to choose the paste [ 10 , 35 , 52 , 53 ]. However, the AAPD [ 35 ], in its guideline, added that eugenol paste is more successful in the long run than other pastes.…”

Background Pediatric endodontics is a critical area of dental practice, involving the treatment of root canals in primary teeth. Treatment approaches can significantly vary due to a range of factors, potentially impacting the success of the procedure and patient comfort. This variability, often influenced by regional practices, individual dentist preferences, and the pace of dental technology advancements, warrants detailed examination to improve standardization and care outcomes. Accordingly, our study aims to scrutinize the endodontic practices of pedodontists in Turkey and compare them with contemporary literature. Material/Methods We conducted an online survey with 15 questions that 217 Turkish pedodontists answered. The questionnaire sought information about their preferences in canal length measurement, canal sealer, irrigation solution, and other procedural decisions. Chi-square test was used to analyze the responses, with a significance level of p<0.05. Results The majority of respondents were associated with universities (123 out of 217). 103 preferred rotary file sets, and 114 used apex locators for canal length measurement. Iodoform pastes (160) and sodium hypochlorite (180) were the most popular choices for canal sealers and irrigation solution, respectively. 152 participants did not prefer using rubber dam, and 186 did not favor sonic-ultrasonic activators. Many reported using hand files as students (184), with 39 continuing this practice. Post-graduation, 64 participants took root canal treatment courses, while 72 were reluctant to perform the procedure under general anesthesia. Conclusions No single method stood out as superior for primary root canal treatments in deciduous teeth. Incorporating advanced technology into dental practice may potentially improve treatment success and patient comfort.

“…It is prepared by slaking, or the reaction of calcium oxide (lime) with water, which results in low solubility in water and a high pH of 12.5; it is also known as slaked lime. The antimicrobial capabilities, ease of resorption, lack of hard mass formation, and absence of tooth discolouration are the characteristics of calcium hydroxide [9,17] For primary teeth, calcium hydroxide has been utilized either alone or in combination with iodoform as a root canal filling material. which are marketed as Vitapex, Metapex, and Diapex.…”

“…It contains of Zinc oxide -14g, Iodoform-42g, thymol-2 g, Chlorophenol camphor-3 cc, lanolin-0.5 g.The goal of this formulation was to slow down the rate of resorption of paste from the canals of primary teeth. [4,9] Most infected teeth can be treated with it because of its powerful antibacterial activity. On periradicular tissue, it has a beneficial healing effect.…”

If an infected tooth can be repaired and is disease-free, it should be managed and kept in the dental arch as a natural space maintainer. The care given to deciduous teeth differs from that given to permanent teeth. There have been a number of obturating materials developed for use in primary teeth's root canal fillings, but none have been able to meet all of the material's desirable qualities. The major objective of the medical professional should be to fill the root canal with a substance that may best fulfill the ideal qualities' strictest requirements. In light of this, the purpose of this review is to outline several obturation materials utilized in routine clinical practice.
