Question 84 · LDEK · Materials in pediatric dentistry

MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) is not indicated for:

  1. A. retrofilling of root canal after the resection of root apex.
  2. B. indirect pulp capping.
  3. C. treatment of internal resorption.
  4. D. closure of perforation and obturation of root canals.
  5. E. direct pulp capping.
Hint

Think about where MTA's sealing and hard-tissue-inducing properties are needed: direct contact with pulp or periodontium, or a procedure that leaves dentine in place.
