BACKGROUND The incidence of post-operative pain was compared following single-visit canal treatment in single- and multi-rooted teeth, with and without periapical radiolucency. The article also reviews the issues of postoperative pain and healing, following single-visit and multi-visit endodontic therapy. Single-visit endodontic therapy (SVE) was performed in 50 single-rooted teeth and 60 multi...

long-term success of endodontic treatment is precisely and completely dependent on adequate and appropriate cleaning and shaping of the root canal along with proper and correct obturation of the entire prepared space. this paper aims to report an exceptionally and novel non-surgical and orthograde endodontic therapy on maxillary right central incisor with an extensive radiolucent lesion. a 17-y...

this case series aims to comprehensively introduce intentional replantation with a focus on its indications and case selection in endodontics. in all represented cases, calcium enriched mixture (cem) cement is used for root-end filling. this case series demonstrates twenty cases of ir and extraoral root-end resection and filling with cem cement. all the selected teeth had a failed endodontic tr...

UNLABELLED Extra teeth in dentition is termed as 'supernumerary teeth' and is a very well-known dental developmental anomaly. Supernumerary premolars are a rare anomaly in the maxillofacial complex. Its rarity and complex characteristics often makes it difficult to treat. Radiographs play an important role in assessment of both the location and the typing of supernumerary teeth. This article re...

The best plan for success is to begin with the end in mind. It generally is agreed that the successful treatment of a badly broken down tooth with pulpal disease depends not only good endodontic therapy, but also on good prosthetic reconstruction of the tooth after endodontic therapy. The primary purpose of the post is to retain a core that can be used to retain definitive prostheses. A post an...

The possible variations of anatomical and morphological characteristics of the teeth are very important especially for the endodontic practitioner. Before beginning any kind of endodontic treatment, the clinician must be always take into account the morphological variations in pulp anatomy. Among all human teeth, the mandibular first permanent molar is one of the most important. It is often aff...

The endodontic triad comprises of cleaning and shaping, disinfection and obturation. Success of root canal therapy is majorly achieved by proper cleaning and shaping. However, elimination of bacterial contaminants as well as necrotic debris of the canals requires the adjunctive use of irrigants. To achieve a satisfactory biological and mechanical preparation proper selection of endodontic instr...

INTRODUCTION Perforation repair is a fairly common endodontic procedure, but most of the recall data in the endodontic literature are short-term (ie, 1-2 years). The purpose of this article was to present 4 clinical cases of perforation repair with medium- to long-term recalls. METHODS Four cases were selected with different clinical scenarios. Three nonsurgical cases were retreated, repaired...
