Recently, Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) categorized as calcium silicate cements has been frequently used for root-end filling. MTA is advantageous in sealing of root and hard-tissue formation, and many clinical studies which reported successful results for apicoectomy using MTA are available. 4-META/MMA adhesive resins, which show superior bonding ability to dentin, are also promising materials for root-end filling. However, in addition to durable sealing, abilities to control infection or promote tissue regeneration are important for ideal root filling materials. Therefore, development of new technologies to achieve adhesive resins for root-end filling with antibacterial effects or FGF-2-releasing property is in progress.
