Mostly in the molar teeth crown down technique is the most effective one in the terms of the root canal debridement. However in simplier cases combination of crown-down, rotary glide […]
The success of Endodontic retreatment is multifactorial and will depend on the degree of root canal morphology alteration. Irreversible iatrogenic errors such as large perforations or canal transportation will decrease […]
A complex case can be diagnosed pre-operatively with radiographs and cone-beam computed tomography systems (CBCT) that provide the exact root canal configuration allowing a deep understanding of the canal anatomy […]
A white male patient was referred for a root canal treatment on seemingly necrotic first right lower molar tooth #46. Patient was exhibiting episodes of pain from time to time […]
The video shows the strategy to adopt in difficult cases
Apical inflammatory root resorption (AIRR) is one of the challenges that can happen during root canal treatment. Mostly it is associated with apical periodontis, but can occur after traumas, orthodontic […]
During our daily treatments we often face different situations where many disciplines of dentistry intertwine with each other, in some treatments we have the need for secondary treatments. The patient […]
During apical third compaction while using warm vertical obturation techniques , we need a smart plugger with perfect size to fit the small area apically without touching the root walls […]
Warm and cold Gutta percha in combination with various types of root canal sealers have been considered the dominant techniques since the mid nineteenth century. With the advent of Bioceramic […]
Correct endodontic treatment has to follow several parameters: proper diagnosis, isolation of operating field, full chemo-mechanical preparation of the complex endodontic system, three-dimensional obturation of the root canals and finally […]
The access cavity must make the succeeding steps easier and safer. It must therefore meet the following requirements Permit the removal of all the chamber contents Permit complete, direct vision […]
