Root canal filling materials for primary teeth: a review of the literature

K Kubota et al. ASDC J Dent Child. 1992 May-Jun.

Abstract

In summary, there is no known ideal root canal filling material for primary teeth. The closest to the ideal appears to be a calcium hydroxide-iodoform mixture. More histopathologic studies as well as long-term clinical studies are needed on this material.
