Sedative Filling
A 48-year-old man with poor dentition and financial constraint returns for treatment. His complaint appears to be related to #18 DO caries/pulpitis (Fig.1). After #17 surgical extraction, #18 caries is removed with pulpal exposure. The majority of the distal surface of the distal root of #18 is exposed. IRM is placed. Osteogen plug is inserted at #17 with 4-0 Chromic suture.
