THE CURVE CONUNDRUM: ENDODONTIC MANAGEMENT OF A DILACERATED THIRD MOLAR
Dilacerated roots pose endodontic challenges; careful imaging, flexible instruments, and meticulous technique ensure predictable treatment outcomes.
Respecting the curves with Rising
Endodontic success relies heavily on the ability to shape root canal systems with precision, minimal risk, and maximum conservation of original anatomy. Among modern instruments, the Rising endodontic files by […]
Single-Visit Management of a Dens Invaginatus Case
