Internal root resorption is rare in permanent teeth. The altered canal anatomy resultant from the resorptive process poses a challenge for the chemo-mechanical debridement and sealing of the root canal. […]
Internal inflammatory root resorption: a case report
Internal root resorption is rare in permanent teeth. The altered canal anatomy resultant from the resorptive process poses a challenge for the chemo-mechanical debridement and sealing of the root canal. […]
Endo - Resto Relationship
The predictors of success and failure in endodontically treated teeth depends on several factors: Apical Pathosis, Bacterial status of the canal prior to obturation, Extent and quality of the obturation […]
External cervical resorption and new bioactive materials
Effective management of external cervical resorption (ECR) depends on the accurate assessment of the true nature and accessibility of ECR. The aim of this article is, based on the available evidence, […]
The Sandwich Technique: A Convenient and Predictable method for Root Perforation Repair
Root perforations are defined as communications between the root canal space and the periodontium. These communications may be caused by a pathological process (as: external or internal resorption) or as […]
Redefining the access in retreatments: Part I of V
One of the most important step of endodontic therapy is the execution of the access cavity. Very often the failure of the therapy arises from an incorrect realization of this […]
Vertical Apical Root Fracture
Vertical fractures can occur and their diagnosis is not always predictable. Will be presented here the treatment of a 2.6 with a vertical apical fracture in the mesial root. […]
Alternative method for removing fractured instrument: a case report
An alternative method, involving the use of an irrigation needle and cyanoacrylate adhesive, allowed the removal of the fractured instrument from inside of the canal system. During the mechanical shaping […]
Endo-resto treatment Management of confluent canals
A 27 years old patient came to our clinic with pain on the right upper side. After examination a root canal treatment was needed. On the pre-operative X-ray we understood […]
Mid-Root Perforation Repair : A Case Report
Endodontic perforation is an iatrogenic procedural error defined as a communication between the root canal system and the periodontal attachment apparatus through the root canal walls. This defect may occur […]
What a surprise!
When I started treating the tooth number 3.7, I understood from the beginning that the case was peculiar. During the emergency session a radix paramolaris was not detected and a […]
Middle Mesial Canal of the Mandibular First Molar: a case report
With increasing reports of aberrant canal morphology, the clinician needs to be aware of the possibility of having a middle mesial canal in mandibular first molars. The purpose of this […]
