Use of bone adhesive for apical sealing a tooth root canal

Abstract

The invention relates to a method and kit for the producing an obturating means for apical sealing an tooth root canal, for improving root canal fillings. The invention also relates to the use of bone glue as an apical stop for obturating root canals.

1 . An agent for apical blockage of a root canal comprising
 a bone adhesive wherein the agent apically blocks the root canal.   
   
   
       2 . The agent of  claim 1 , wherein the bone adhesive securely seals nonround foramina having lateral side channels. 
   
   
       3 .- 4 . (canceled) 
   
   
       5 . A device for apical introduction of bone adhesive into a root canal,
 comprising:   an adhesive depot,   a pressure plunger,   a pressure plunger top part,   a standardized click attachment of a guide point,   a rubber stopper for longitudinal securing,   a measurement scale,   a guide point having application tubing,   an integrated application tube, an ISO-standardized point tip having laterally located application tubing outlet ducts,   a click system on the adhesive depot, and/or   an application tube attachment.   
   
   
       6 . A tooth root sealing kit comprising:
 in one container, at least one bone adhesive of  claim 1 , and,   in a separate container, information for combining contents of the kit or using them for treating root canals and filling them.   
   
   
       7 . The kit of  claim 6 , further comprising gutta-percha stoppers and/or various probes which have gutta-percha stoppers having various conicities 
   
   
       8 . A method for an apical blockage of a root canal comprising,
 providing a bone adhesive,   wherein the bone adhesive provides for the apical blockage of the root canal.   
   
   
       9 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein said method is a therapeutic or prophylactic treatment of a tooth lesion. 
   
   
       10 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the bone adhesive provides for the secure sealing of nonround foramina having lateral side channels. 
   
   
       11 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein the method is succeeded by the introduction of a root canal filling. 
   
   
       12 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein said blockage is essentially hermetic and/or essentially bacteria tight. 
   
   
       13 . The method of  claim 8 , wherein said blockage is hermetic and/or bacteria tight.
