Abstract

Microorganisms must be removed from the root canal (RC) and periapical region for endodontic success. A sterile state cannot be achieved with only endodontic instrumentation. Local administration of antibiotics has been studied in light of the development of non-instrumentation endodontic treatment, tissue healing and lesion sterilization. Triple antibiotic paste (TAP) with metronidazole, ciprofloxacin, and minocycline works well for non-vital young permanent teeth and the RC pathogen. Present review of literature aims to discuss role of TAP in endodontic treatment.
