The book focuses on obturation techniques in primary molars, a critical step in successful pulpectomy. Treating pulpally involved primary teeth is challenging due to complex canal anatomy, physiological root resorption, and behavioral factors in children. Retaining primary teeth is important for mastication, esthetics, speech, and maintaining space for permanent teeth.Pulpectomy success depends on proper cleaning, suitable obturating material, and an effective technique that ensures a hermetic seal with minimal voids. Common materials include Zinc Oxide Eugenol and Endoflas.Various techniques are used, including pressure syringe, lentulospiral, mechanical syringe, incremental filling, jiffy tube, tuberculin syringe, disposable injection, reamer, insulin syringe, NaviTip, bi-directional spiral, and Pastinject. Each has advantages such as ease, control, and uniform filling, and limitations like overfilling, voids, or technique sensitivity.No single method is ideal. The choice depends on canal anatomy, clinical conditions, and operator skill. Continuous advancements are essential to improve outcomes in pediatric endodontics.
