Making apical plugs easier using a simple collagen sponge
Proper seal of the root canal system is a key factor for long term success of the endodontic treatment. In the majority of cases, the root anatomy and the apical […]
Management of deep root perforations
Root perforation is a challenging situation when the root canal has a pathological communication with periradicular area. Perforations can occur as an iatrogenic accident during a root canal instrumentation and […]
Management of Immature Permanent Incisors with wide open apex
A major problem associated with treating traumatized teeth with necrotic pulps and open apices, is achieving an acceptable seal in the apical area. Apexification has traditionally formed an integral part of the […]
Root perforations: from breakdown to breakthrough
In retreatments, one of real endodontic challenges comes when disassembly is complete and what remains is a root canal system that has been perforated. What is the critical thinking required […]
Retrieve and repair
As Endodontists our daily work is an adrenaline fuel because we face new challenges on a daily basis and each case requires a strategy to fix it. Strategy before any […]
Root canal treatment of an immature permanent mandibular first molar
The root canal treatment of immature permanent teeth poses many challenges, one of which is the obturation technique. These teeth come with wide apices and sometimes even a divergent configuration […]
Multiple errors retreatment
In this article i am presenting a case with multiple errors came symptomatic while biting. Lack of knowledge in the endodontic field may lead to some errors during the treatment […]
Endodontic management of a Traumatic Maxillary Central Incisor with wide open apex and evident resorption
Pulp necrosis(mostly due to trauma) in teeth with incomplete roots can arrest root development resulting in open apices. he main challenge in performing root-canal treatment in teeth with necrotic pulps […]
Immature tooth with apical periodontitis and sinus tract undergoes apexogenesis. A case report.
It is believed that Apical Periodontitis develop in teeth where the pulp is necrotic. However, some studies show that remnants of vital pulp tissues might still be in the canal […]
Prexo as new plugger for the ideal MTA apical plug
MTA apical plug still represents a gold standard procedure for permanent sealing of the apexes of different sizes. The precise and controlled placement of this material is always intended and […]
