Disassembling in endodontics refers to the process of carefully removing any obstructions, restorations, or prior materials within a root canal to allow for effective retreatment. "Retreaty Files" represent a new generation of files designed to enhance the effectiveness of endodontic treatment, especially in canal retreatment procedures. These instruments are engineered to precisely remove previous canal […]

Endodontic mishaps can interfere with the healing process of the body and can result in failure of the root canal treatment if not taken care of. Perforation, if present should be handled immediately and adequate materials to be used for better results. Fracture of an instrument results in improper cleaning and shaping of the remaining […]

The removal of separated files is favourable when the file is visible, located in a relatively straight canal and there is a significant portion of the file protruding in the pulp chamber above the canal orifice.
Gentle teasing with Stieglitz Forceps usually represents the best approach in this situations similarly to silver points’ removal.
Unfortunately in the presented case the use of grasping action and pull was not sufficient due to engagement of the file past the apical foramen.
A tailored trial and error approach is required for each individual case.

Achieving glide path in retreatments by removing safely the gutta percha and sealer from within the root canal is always a difficult step. The instruments used in endodontic retreatments have to meet many requirements that enables the clinician to be efficient, secure and conservative at the same time. When choosing the first file to start […]

In this article we are going to review how can we deal with the most hated canal in Endodontics from diagnosis to obturation.

Root resorption is a pathological process that may occur after surgical mechanical, chemical or thermal insult. Generally, it can be classified as internal and external root resorption. Depending on the diagnosis, biocompatible material like MTA can be used in management of these cases. General dental practitioners can face difficulties in diagnosis and treatment planning for […]

Our primary purpose in Endodontics is represented by the chance to preserve and maintain a tooth in place, even if previously treated. One of the indication for a retreatment is when the coronal seal is compromised. This clinical case highlights the daily practice with the predicability of the use of Retreaty kit by Perfect Endo.

The second maxillary premolar  may have 1 to 3 roots: with one root canal in 75-96% of cases, with two root canals in 4-24% and three root canals in 0-1%. Careful interpretation of preoperative radiographs is essential for providing insight into the number of existing root canals. In maxillary premolars with multiple roots and canals, […]

This particular case serves as an illustrative example of the application of correct rotary protocol in the execution of a root canal procedure within a mandibular first molar with calcified and missed canal, employing Retreaty files from Perfect Endo.

Amongst the different stages of endodontic retreatment, filling material removal may be performed by using manual files and rotary instruments. Further, desobturation may be associated with ultrasonic activation and different types of solvents, although they are currently used with less frequency. However, no retreatment technique is reliable enough to clean root canal system completely after reinstrumentation.

Abiding by the styleitaliano philosophy Retreaty kit allowed a more conservative way in retreatment cases by having 3 different alloys to help in managing the cases in feasible, teachable & repeatable approach

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 […]
