The maxillary first molar typically exhibits complex root canal anatomy, commonly presenting with three roots—two buccal and one palatal. However, anatomical variations, such as the presence of a fourth root, can occur and significantly impact endodontic treatment. Recognizing these variations is crucial for successful root canal therapy. This article discusses the endodontic management of four-rooted […]

Many times we hear about rotation and reciprocation as rival movements and feel like we have to choose one or the other. In reality both are very important and helpful to achieve a predictable result. Let’s dive into the main characteristics of each movement Rotation: + Removes easily the debris that are created and are […]

The field of endodontic retreatment is wide and the cases are variable according to the mishaps included. This article will deal with a short filling which was condensed despite having an apical blockage.

A patient recently visited our clinic with a complaint of persistent pain in the upper right lateral incisor. Upon examination, we discovered a granuloma at the root of the affected tooth. After careful evaluation, we proposed endodontic surgery as the most conservative solution to address the issue. This approach aims to preserve the natural tooth […]

In this article i am going to show an option for the ferrule gaining for badly destructed teeth.

In retreatment cases , the clinician has to deal with many mishaps such as underfilled, missed and obstructed canals as also with iatrogenic damages as separated instruments and perforations. Underfilled and missed canals are the main reasons for endodontic failures (>30%).Especially underfilling can be a real challenge since it can strongly reduces the success rate […]

There are four options for managing a tooth with posttreatment disease: do nothing, extraction, non­surgical retreatment, or surgical treatment. Avoiding treatment may result in the progression of disease and continued destruction of supporting tissues, as well as possible acute exacerbation of systemic side effects, such as cellulitis and/or lymphadenopathy. In most cases, these options are […]

Coronal fractures of the anterior teeth are a common form of dental trauma that mainly affects children and adolescents. One of the options for managing coronal tooth fractures when the tooth fragment is available is the reattachment of the dental fragment.

This article reports on coronal tooth fracture case that was successfully treated using tooth fragment reattachment.

The patient came to my office with a big swelling and acute pain , after the pre-op X-ray the situation was clear , apical periodontitis plus a lateral lesion . The previous endodontic treatment is short and we have a perforation on middle one third of the root located on the distal aspect of the […]

The clinician must be aware of the possible anatomical variations of these teeth and their relationship to adjacent anatomical structures when planning and performing endodontic procedures.

The position and anatomy of upper molars can make root canal treatment challenging, and instrument separation is common. In the presented case, tooth 1.6 had an abscess, and an attempt at root canal treatment was made. Unfortunately, the previous dentist encountered difficulties and broke a paste carrier approximately 4 mm beyond the apex. In the […]
