Among maxillary molars MB2 proven to be the most neglected canal during root canal treatment, inability to follow the rules and […]
Pulp canal obliteration or calcific metamorphosis is a pulpal response to trauma characterized by a rapid deposition of hard tissue within the canal space.

This is a case of very long roots of upper first premolar having working length of 27 mm for both Buccal & Palatal […]
Tooth resorptions can be classified as: (1) trauma induced; (2) infection induced; or (3) hyperplastic invasive. Some transient trauma induced resorptions require no treatment but must be carefully monitored to check that there are no complicating issues such as infection. In cases of trauma induced replacement resorption, a multidisciplinary approach is usually necessary to ensure […]
