MTA is placed after cleaning the canals and its placement is with the help of ultrasonic tips

I am posting a case i completed last week
will be following up the case

Dentsply MTA is an excellent material for treating Open Apex cases
Although i would advise a dressing with CaOH paste (any of te commercially available pastes)
since they are convenient to procure and dispense

I have many more such cases with more than 1 year follow up will upload them soon.
