For me, there is nothing better than being able to manage endo and resto of a tooth in a single visit

Periodontium and pulpal spaces represent the two primary modes of dental infection from oral bacteria.
At the clinical level, compound dentoalveolar infections involving both tissues are common and present challenges for diagnosis and treatment. The complex lesions presenting the characteristics of both endodontic and periodontic infections are referred to as endo-periodontal lesions (EPLs).

The restoration of endodontically treated teeth must be planned before initiating root canal treatment. Because  Microbial contamination of the root canal system and peri-apical tissues is the most common reason […]

The primary goal of successful endodontic therapy is to perform a proper cleaning and shaping of the root canal system. In clinical practice, this cleaning and shaping, performed with the […]

One of the most common complications after dental trauma is pulp necrosis, which is often associated with apical periodontitis. The management of these teeth is challenging due to large root canals, open apices, and thin dentinal walls. 1
Long-term irritation leads to periapical lesions and cysts in the apical region. If left untreated, necrotic and infected pulp causes inflammatory lesions in the periapical tissues to grow over time, leading to structural changes in the bone. In some cases, root canal treatment may be required later during follow-up of injuries, due to subsequent pulp necrosis and infection of the root canal system. 2-3

The aim of the article is not to introduce a new technique, but to combine existing and consolidated ones in order to maximize the ergonomics, quality and predictability of our treatments; the proposed protocol was designed to satisfy the work mantra "the best work, in the shortest time, in the greatest comfort" and therefore entirely focused on reducing chair time and maximum operational facilitation.

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.

One of the main objectives of dentistry is the preservation of the natural dentition.1 Carious lesions, dental trauma, root resorptions or iatrogenic procedures such as root perforations can cause the […]

A pre-eruptive intra-coronal resorption (PIER) is a defect located in the dentin of an unerupted tooth, just beneath the dentin-enamel junction.  The depth of the lesion is variable and may […]

Every patient wants a functional, healthy, and esthetically appealing smile.

This article describes a patient with discolored and fractured composite resin restorations with improper endodontic treatment on the anterior teeth in whom substitution was indicated.

This treatment improves the endodontic and restorative aspects.

Among all the difficulties we encounter during the reconstruction of an incongruous root canal therapy, a very difficult challenge is always represented by overcoming false paths and ledges mistakenly created […]

Adhesive procedures have changed the way of restoring endodontically treated teeth. Postless approaches have been proposed to improve and restore teeth. The preservation of the dental structure of endodontically treated […]
