Endodontic cases involving broken instruments are among the most challenging and stressful in the field. Even the top experienced endodontists will agree that removing broken tools demands unwavering calm and exceptional self-control. This procedure isn't for everyone, as a rushed decision or improper removal can lead to failure. It's important to remember that any attempt […]
Perforation is an iatrogenic communication that is formed between the tooth and supporting tissues.
It is important to manage perforations as soon as they are diagnosed.
An ideal peforation repair material is Mineral Trioxide Aggregate.
Middle mesial canal (MMC) is an additional canal found in mandibular first molars. The knowledge of its presence and its detection, negotiation, disinfection and sealing plays paramount importance in the overall endodontic success.
The primary objective in endodontics, whether primary treatment or retreatments, is the treatment of apical periodontitis as well as prevention of its recurrence. When we address retreatments, incomplete disinfection of the root canal system is considered as one of the most common causes of post treatment failures. This article will discuss non-surgical retreatment of a […]
As endodontists we often encounter retreatment cases with procedural errors such as canal blockages, ledges, instrument fractures and perforations. The ledge is defined as an iatrogenic deviation from the original canal path that does not communicate with the periodontal ligament. The presence of a ledge prohibits the files from reaching the canal terminus, resulting in […]
Dentistry is all about combining clinical art & science of diagnosis to improve the quality of patient’s life.
Here we will talk about a patient with a molar needed to be retreated and instead she was misdiagnosed with trigeminal neuralgia.
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 […]
