Because of the capacity to promote environmental condition for tissue repair, calcium hydroxide can be used in management of a wide range of endodontic problems such as pulp capping, pulpotomy, root properties, it promotes mineralization, induced healing, and initiation of hard tissue formation. Although there have been many reports on the success, the exact mechanism is still poorly understood. Development of the use of calcium for endodontic therapy will be reviewed.
