Some options to root canals which use gutta percha include
1. pulp capping with calcium hydroxide, acid etching/direct composite resins, or mineral trioxide aggregate(MTA) for vita teeth with exposed nerve due to dental work
2. root-canals with calcium hydroxide or Endocal 10
due to the common health consequences of root-canaled teeth, any root canaled tooth should be monitored using appropriate tests for bacterial toxicity.
