Root canal retreatment of upper left canine using iRoot Pro with integrated apex locator
In root canal retreatment, we always focus on files only. While another important factor to consider is we should preserve apical construction during retreatment as possible
Endodontic-maxillary sinus comunications.
The anatomical relationship between maxillary posterior teeth and the maxillary sinus represents a clinically relevant factor during endodontic treatment. Variations in sinus pneumatization may lead to close proximity or even […]
Endodontic retreatment and post endodontic restoration of a central incisor
In this case I had to retreat two badly decayed teeth. We put provisional crowns first, in order to preserve the aesthetics of the patient between treatments, then I scheduled […]
Rare anatomy Fusion+ Dens in dent Type ااا in upper lateral incisor.
The management of a necrotic maxillary lateral incisor presenting with fusion and Type III dens invaginatus associated with a periapical lesion represents one of the most biologically and technically demanding […]
R One Mini in a narrow and calcified upper first premolar
R One Mini reciprocating file system by Fanta is an excellent file system to be used in different scenarios like narrow and calcified canals. It is an easy system (two files), safe, and minimal invasive approach due to variable taper.
Touching the pulp
In the modern conservative dentistry, minimal invasive dental protocols are so important to preserve the pulp tissue vitality as long as we can to keep tooth strength, reduce treatment complexity, and to support long term oral health.
The pulp is a highly vascularized and innervated tissue that plays an essential role in dentin formation, nutrition, immune defense, and sensory function.
Rising files in the treatment of an upper premolar
In daily dental practice, we frequently witness the late failure of restorative procedures that were originally intended to preserve pulp vitality. Over time, the dental pulp may undergo irreversible inflammation […]
Retreatment of badly decayed tooth with multiple mishaps
In the world of endodontics, the line between a routine procedure and a clinical "detour" can be incredibly thin. Whether it’s a stubborn calcified canal or an unexpected instrument fracture, mishaps are less a sign of incompetence and more a reflection of the biological and anatomical complexities we face daily.
Retreatment through a crown
The patient, 72, had these crowns a few years earlier and had no desire to remove them. Tooth 4.5 had already been treated, but it was the only one that […]

S obturation with hydraulic BC cement for UR5 with deep apical split
Root canal system is a very complex three-dimensional system. Although there are general rules about the anatomy, number of root/s or canal/s for each tooth, but we should expect everything. For that reason, we should have goon understanding, good reading of radiographs, good tools, and experience to deal with different scenarios
