Successful final restoration is important for the long term success of root canal treatment. A lack of adhesion in a final restoration could result in apical or coronal leakage that causes problems in the root canal treatment. Endodontically-treated teeth frequently require extensive restorations with post-core system. ABSTRACT The Influence of AH-26 and Zinc Oxide-Eugenol Root Canal Sealer on ...

An accurate understanding of the morphology of the root canal system is a prerequisite for successful root canal treatment. Invaginated teeth have a complex root canal configuration that cannot be instrumented effectively and should be treated by both endodontic therapy and surgery. A case of dens invaginatus Type 3 in a maxillary lateral incisor with a periapical lesion and its successful trea...

Anatomy of the root canal system always effects endodontic treatment outcome. Mandibular premolar teeth show extreme variations in root canal morphology. First premolars usually exhibit basic one root and one canal anatomy. The occurrence of three roots in mandibular first premolar has not been commonly reported in literature. This article reports a case of successful nonsurgical endodontic man...

The key goals of endodontic therapy include the removal of pulp remnants, necrotic tissue, micro-organisms, and microbial byproducts from the root canal system. Although this may be achieved through endodontic preparation, complete removal is difficult because of the intricate root canal anatomy [1]. Isthmi, apical deltas, intercanal communications, and loops are commonly observed in root canal...

An accurate understanding of the morphology of the root canal system is a prerequisite for successful root canal treatment. Invaginated teeth have a complex root canal configuration that cannot be instrumented effectively. Correct diagnosis and treatment planning are fundamental to treatment of dens invaginatus. Periapical surgery is indicated in cases where a nonsurgical approach fails. A case...

introduction: various materials and methods have been recommended for successful root canal obturation. the aim of this experimental in vitro study was to compare the sealing ability of three root canal sealers ah-26, glass ionomer cement (gic) and zinc oxide eugenol (zoe) in single gutta-percha obturating system. methods and materials: seventy extracted single-rooted human teeth were decoronat...

BACKGROUND Knowledge about root canal morphology and its frequent variations can exert considerable influence on the success of endodontic treatment. The aim of this study was to survey the root canal morphology of mandibular first premolar teeth in a Gujarati population by decalcification and clearing technique. METHODS One hundred thirty eight extracted mandibular first premolar teeth were ...

BACKGROUND Cleaning and shaping of root canal system requires various irrigating solutions. The question is whether the presence of irrigation solution alters working length determination using apex locators. The purpose of this study was to compare the accuracy of Root ZX and i-Root apex locator for determining working length in the presence of different irrigating solution. MATERIALS AND ME...
