Calcium silicate based cements have many positive features, however they can be difficult to remove if a retreatment is necessary.
The so called “bioceramics”… Easy to place, less easy to remove!

Four canals maxillary second molars
Maxillary molars have one of the most complex root canal anatomies. It is very important for this reason to correctly understand the anatomy before starting endodontic therapy. Correct planning starting from the diagnostic evaluation through the aid of x-rays and CBCT (if necessary) will allow the clinician to formulate a correct endodontic treatment plan and a correct choice of materials and equipment during the access cavity and cleaning and shaping and obturation steps.
Orthodontic Extrusion For proper Endodontic therapy
The major problem with sub-gingival fracture is absence of adequate coronal ferrule and a compromised biological width. This usually complicates the application of the rubber dam during endodontic treatment. The […]
Deep split in lower first premolar
Mandibular first premolar usually have a one root and one root canal but it shows a wide variety of abnormal root canal anatomy.
The occurrence of three canaled mandibular first premolar with deep apical split is very rare, but it does occur.
The incidence of a three-canaled mandibular first premolar is approximately 0.2%, making such teeth most difficult to manage endodontically.
MTA apical plug and internal bleaching for Upper Central Incisor
MTA (Mineral Trioxide Aggregate) apical plug is a technique used in endodontic treatment to create a barrier at the apex of the tooth. This innovative solution has revolutionized endodontics by […]
Endodontic microsurgery sometimes is the only way
Apical microsurgery is a powerful tool that can help when good ortograde endodontics fails.

In this article i am highlighting the way i’ve dealt with this syptomatic upper Premolar with 2 instruments separated.
Everything changes except for anatomy!
As the complex anatomy of maxillary first molars is one of the major challenges in endodontic therapy, knowledge of the complicated root canal anatomy and configuration is crucial to ensure the success of endodontic treatment and prognosis. This article presents an endodontically managed maxillary first molar with special anatomy.
Triple trouble
In this article we are going to share management of a pulp stone associated with c-shaped canals in a lower second molar.
Middle mesial canal (MMC) in lower molars
The main canals in the mesial root of lower molars are the mesiobuccal and mesiolingual canals. A middle mesial canal (MMC) sometimes is present in the developmental groove between the […]
