First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at using a special filling material called OrthoMTA for root canals in second baby molars that have no permanent tooth growing underneath. Thirteen children received the treatment and were checked for up to 12 months to see if the tooth stayed healthy and infection-free. The goal was to keep the tooth working and avoid problems like pain or abscess.
