Evaluation of the average pulp cavity volume of primary second molar and canine for obturation of a single primary tooth: A preliminary cone-beam computed tomographic study

Conclusion: It can be inferred that even with the use of exact predetermined quantity/grams of obturating material, optimum quality obturation could be achieved, thus avoiding wastage, preventing cross contamination, and simultaneously offering good clinical results. Hence, this study opens further gateways to device ampules containing predetermined mass of obturating material for a single use for obturation of a single primary tooth.
