I would like to introduce to you new, very easy and efficient file set MG3 from PerfectEndo. This is my first video of the shaping protocol to be followed and I hope you will like the files.

Root canal retreatment seems to be one of the biggest challenges in the Endodontic therapy, in the retreatment episodes we will review different scenarios with different cases. In Endodontics we are dealing  with a lot of challenges such as anatomy, mishaps, instrument separation, etc. but one of the biggest challenges is to deal safely with […]

Root perforations are characterized by a communication between the root canal system and the external tooth surface. They are caused by a pathological process or an operative procedural accident. When iatrogenic, they can occur during access cavity opening, root canal preparation or during post preparation. Root perforation needs to be diagnosed early and treated appropriately as soon as possible, since they may cause an inflammatory […]

Here is a demonstration of how Fanta F-One essential kit should be used.

Apical pathology can appear as a straightforward diagnosis, however the tools available for assessment come across different limitations. Histology has highlighted various aspects that can not be yet coherently linked to a clinical situation using imaging investigations (Ricucci, Mannocci & Pitt Ford, 2006). Inflammatory root resorption makes no exception and reveals itself on periapical x-ray […]

The C-shaped canal, which was first documented in  endodontic literature by Cooke and Cox in 1979,  is so named for the cross-sectional morphology of the root and root canal. C shaped canals are mostly present in the mandibular second molars, while they are really rare in the first mandibular molars. The cause of forming C shaped canals is the Hertwig’s epithelial […]

Tooth restoration after an endodontic treatment is a very important part of the endodontic treatment because the prognosis of treatment as a whole depends on it. Many endodontic failures come exactly from an inadequate restoration after the endodontic treatment.  The vital teeth are different  from non-vital teeth in terms of physico-chemical, structural, and biological aspect. […]

Root canal system is a complex entity in itself. Success treatment of the root canal system depends upon the triad of thorough cleaning and shaping, disinfection & obturation up-to the calculated working length of the root canals. Failure to follow the Endodontology protocol can lead to failure of the endodontic treatment. Interpretation of a preoperative […]

Check this case to see how it is possible to bypass separated instruments using FANTA Glider ST in reciprocating motion.

One of the most undesirable situations for us dentists is the diagnosis of cracked teeth, as well as their treatment. This happens because diagnosing tooth micro-fractures, which are usually invisible (not even seen on the Xray), when they are below the level of the gums complicates our situation. If the crack reaches the pulp chamber […]

Perforations are defined as artificial communications between the root canal space and the surrounding tissues. Endodontic perforations represent an interruption of the continuum between the endodontic space and the periradicular tissues, periodontal tissues or oral cavity.  In the presence of perforation, studies report a 10 to 12% increase in the failure rate of endodontic procedures.  […]

The primary objective of the entire root canal treatment procedure is to eliminate microorganisms and pathogenic debris from the root canal system and to prevent its reinfection: mechanical instrumentation accompanied by irrigation could be considered as the most essential component that aids in reaching this goal. To understand if the instrumentation of the endodontic space has […]
