Mechanical scouting with Glider ST
Canal negotiation sometimes can be very difficult or challenging, especially with narrow, secondary, or calcified canals. In this case of a maxillary molar, pulp chamber and canals were extremely calcified. A 35 years old female patient been referred to restore her upper right teeth. Pt complains of discomfort when food get trapped between her upper […]
Hybrid shaping concept with MG3 rotary system
Mostly in the molar teeth crown down technique is the most effective one in the terms of the root canal debridement. However in simplier cases combination of crown-down, rotary glide path and single length can be also very effective. This technique can be called a hybrid technique and will be described in this article. Crown-down […]
Tactic and strategy for curved, narrow and difficult canals

Retreatment of a Maxillary First Molar using MG3 files
Correct endodontic treatment has to follow several parameters: proper diagnosis, isolation of operating field, full chemo-mechanical preparation of the complex endodontic system, three-dimensional obturation of the root canals and finally the post endodontic restoration. Respecting all these parameters, short- and long-term success can be achieved. Failure to follow the protocol in any of the above […]
Management of long and apically curved upper first premolar with T-Pro Rotary System
The maxillary first premolar always represents a challenge when it shows any abnormal anatomy. The variations in anatomy is the fact we have to deal with in our daily root canal practice. This is a case of very long roots of upper first premolar having working length of 27 mm for both Buccal & Palatal […]
Management of a three rooted premolar with Fanta Essential Kit
The maxillary first premolar is the most commonly bi-rooted tooth with occasional presentation of three roots system. This clinical has has been managed with Essential Kit by Fanta Dental, a right balance between flexibility and cutting efficacy!
Manualless shaping "IT IS POSSIBLE"!
Root canal shaping is considered a very important steps during endodontic treatment. Research has shown that mechanical instrumentation greatly reduces the number of microorganisms remaining in the root canal system. With respect to canal anatomy a sequence of files should be planned according to case difficulty in order to avoid errors during root canal […]
Management of Maxillary Central Incisor with Extreme Calcific Metamorphosis
Pulp canal calcification is characterized by the deposition of calcified tissue along the canal walls. As a result, the root canal space can become partially or completely obliterated. It is considered a normal physiological process occurring with ageing, and a defensive response to normal wear. This response, however, can be accelerated considerably in the case […]
Essential kit: how to use it in practice
“Simplexity” is a possible relation between complexity and simplicity. The ultimate sophistication in Endodontics using a Simplified Multiple File Technique
Save the bride: retreatment of a second upper molar with large lesion and sinus tract
Success of endodontic treatment depends upon thorough mechanical and chemical disinfection of the entire root canal system. When the endodontic treatment is of poor quality, apical periodontitis might occur. Numerous studies have investigated the prevalence of apical periodontitis in root filled teeth and its potential risk factors: beyond the substandard quality of the treatment, one of […]
Endodontic management of complex premolar anatomy By MG3 Files
The success of root canal therapy depends on managing all the existing canals by having the knowledge of the root anatomy, then cleaning, shaping and pack the endodontic space. Variations in root canal anatomy are common and sometimes can't be noticed while taking 2D radiograph, thus there are cases where CBCT is a must. This […]
Shaping Essentials and Furcal Canal Case Report
Endodontic anatomy is unpredictable, that’s why Preoperative radiographic analysis is very important step in managing endodontic challenges. Some important data could be collected through good reading to preoperative radiograph like root length, canals number, estimated narrowness or canal sclerosis. Once case difficulty is assessed, shaping technique and files sequence could be planned for safer canal […]
