INSTRUMENT FRACTURE IS A COMMON COMPLICATION IN ENDODONTICS THAT WE MUST BE PREPARED TO SOLVE IN A PREDICTABLE WAY. IN THIS CASE WE SHOW HOW TO SUCCESSFULLY RESOLVE THIS COMPLEX SITUATION

One of the most common complications after dental trauma is pulp necrosis, which is often associated with apical periodontitis. The management of these teeth is challenging due to large root canals, open apices, and thin dentinal walls. 1
Long-term irritation leads to periapical lesions and cysts in the apical region. If left untreated, necrotic and infected pulp causes inflammatory lesions in the periapical tissues to grow over time, leading to structural changes in the bone. In some cases, root canal treatment may be required later during follow-up of injuries, due to subsequent pulp necrosis and infection of the root canal system. 2-3

Matching the color of dental crowns to discolored tooth abutment is a tough challenge in modern dentistry. When a tooth abutment is discolored—due to staining, injury, or previous treatments—it can be hard to make a crown that looks natural and blends well with the surrounding teeth.
The difficulty comes from several factors: the original color of the tooth, the type of discoloration, and the materials used for the crown. Although new materials and techniques have made it easier to match colors, getting a perfect match is still not always possible. This can affect the overall look of the dental work.

In this article we are going to review how can we deal with the most hated canal in Endodontics from diagnosis to obturation.

We will describe and analyze the new BlueShaper PRO system for rotary surgical preparation of root canals with the new Dual Wire technology. It includes a basic set of 4 files: Z1, Z2, Z3, and Z4, as well as the Blue Shaper PRO system with a D0 of 0.14mm, 0.17mm, 0.19mm, and 0.25mm respectively, with […]

Root resorption is a pathological process that may occur after surgical mechanical, chemical or thermal insult. Generally, it can be classified as internal and external root resorption. Depending on the diagnosis, biocompatible material like MTA can be used in management of these cases. General dental practitioners can face difficulties in diagnosis and treatment planning for […]

Our primary purpose in Endodontics is represented by the chance to preserve and maintain a tooth in place, even if previously treated. One of the indication for a retreatment is when the coronal seal is compromised. This clinical case highlights the daily practice with the predicability of the use of Retreaty kit by Perfect Endo.

External cervical resorption (ECR) is  an aggressive form of root resorption (RR), which initiates from the external cervical area of the tooth. Its aetiology is mostly unclear. As in this case, the lesion often progresses asymptomatically, until it is discovered incidentally. 

Most mandibular second molars are usually found to have two roots (76%) or one root (22%). The incidence of 3 roots anatomy in such teeth is considered a rare finding (less than 2% in some researches). The incidence of 3 rooted lower second molar with 4 separate canals is considered very rare.  This is a […]

The second maxillary premolar  may have 1 to 3 roots: with one root canal in 75-96% of cases, with two root canals in 4-24% and three root canals in 0-1%. Careful interpretation of preoperative radiographs is essential for providing insight into the number of existing root canals. In maxillary premolars with multiple roots and canals, […]

This particular case serves as an illustrative example of the application of correct rotary protocol in the execution of a root canal procedure within a mandibular first molar with calcified and missed canal, employing Retreaty files from Perfect Endo.

The aim of the article is not to introduce a new technique, but to combine existing and consolidated ones in order to maximize the ergonomics, quality and predictability of our treatments; the proposed protocol was designed to satisfy the work mantra "the best work, in the shortest time, in the greatest comfort" and therefore entirely focused on reducing chair time and maximum operational facilitation.
