For many years, Formocresol has been a mainstay in endodontics, particularly in primary teeth pulpotomy and intracanal medication. It has a long and illustrious history in pediatric dentistry, with an exceptionally high clinical success rate that has resulted in the saving of millions of teeth over the years. Alternative materials have not yet been shown to be as effective in producing comparable results. Pulpotomy is one of the most commonly used treatments in primary dentition, especially because primary teeth are so important in maintaining proper dental health until they naturally exfoliate. Formocresol is an essential tool for pulp therapy due to its proven effectiveness as a fixative, disinfectant, and devitalizing agent. The material is extremely useful in killing bacteria within the pulp and preventing further infection spread while preserving as much healthy tooth structure as possible. Its remarkable bactericidal properties aid in maintaining the vitality of the radicular pulp, minimizing pain and inflammation, and preserving the health and integrity of the teeth.
Formocresol is less technique sensitive and easy to apply, in addition to its broad-spectrum antimicrobial action and predictable outcome. When treating primary teeth pulpotomy cases requiring antibacterial action while retaining coronal pulp structure integrity, Formocresol has proven to be second to none, increasing vital tooth restoration opportunities through radicular pulp regeneration capability.
