Endodontic treatment failure can be caused by a variety of factors, including bacterial persistence, improperly cleaned and obturated root canals, faulty coronal seal (leakage), untreated canals (missed canals). The presence bacteria such as Enterococcus (E.) faecalis inside the canal system is most common cause endodontic failure. These are more resistant to disinfectants, resulting in an infe...

A case of orofacial pain and inferior alveolar nerve (IAN) paraesthesia after extrusion of endodontic sealer within the mandibular canal treated with prednisone and pregabalin is described. A 36-year-old woman underwent root canal treatment of the mandibular second right premolar tooth. Post-operative panoramic radiograph revealed the presence of radiopaque canal sealer in the mandibular canal....

AIM To present a unique case of mandibular first and second premolars with two roots and two root canals with the aid of spiral computed tomography (SCT). BACKGROUND Confirmation of morphology of mandibular first and second premolars with the aid of SCT. CASE DESCRIPTION Mandibular premolars usually have a single root and a single canal. The occurrence of two roots with two separate root ca...

The main objective of endodontic treatment is the total removal any necrotic tissues and microorganisms along with their byproducts found within infected root canal to treat prevent recolonization these micrbad oorganisms. To date, no known irrigant has a 100% elimination rate on microorganisms, many combinations irrigates have been suggested, care must be taken mixing interaction side effects....

Introduction Pain control following root canal therapy is a challenging issue in dentistry. This double-blind study aimed to compare the effectiveness of Celebrex and celecoxib used to control post-endodontic pain. Material and Methods In this randomized, double-blind study, 43 patients with symptomatic teeth were selected. The subjects gave their consent for a prophylactic oral administrati...

The pulp plays a key role in the treatment of traumatic dental injuries (TDIs) and is strongly associated with outcome, particularly severe cases. A correct diagnosis essential as it forms basis for developing appropriate management strategy. However, many TDIs are complex, their requires profound knowledge physiological pathological responses affected tissues. This comprehensive review will lo...
