Treatment Outcomes of Pulpectomy in Primary Maxillary Incisors Filled with ZOE and Metapex: A Two-year Retrospective Study

Conclusions. The radiographic success rates are comparable between the ZOE and Metapex groups. Clinical pathological manifestations such as pain and soft tissue pathosis are seen in the Metapex group at recalls, but none in the ZOE group. Predisposing factors such as type of incisor, preoperative root resorption, and extent of filling at recalls are associated with the radiographic success rate.
