KAKOURA, Flora  e  PANTELIDOU, Ourania. Retreatment Efficacy of Endodontic Bioceramic Sealers: A Review of the Literature. Odovtos [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.2, pp.39-50. ISSN 2215-3411.  http://dx.doi.org/10.15517/ijds.v0i0.33163.

The endodontic retreatment is a feasible solution when post-operative apical periodontitis persists or develops. The complete removal of the filling materials is important in order to ensure the unobstructed contact of the intracanal disinfectants with the microbes. As a new generation of bioceramic endodontic sealers has emerged, their removal efficacy from the root canal system during retreatment is a matter of concern among clinicians. The aim of this article is to provide a comprehensive review of the current literature on the retreatability of these novel obturating materials. A significant amount of bioceramic sealer remnants in the root canal walls was observed in all studies. Even though canal cleanliness could not be obtained at an ideal level, the re-establishment of the working length and patency can be considered manageable and comparable to other endodontic sealers.
