maxillary second molar with two palatal roots is a rare dental anatomy. the diagnosis and treatment of exceeded root may create challenge for clinicians. the authors discuss the retreatment of a maxillary second molar in which exceeded root was undiagnosed in previous treatment. the case report underlines the importance of complete knowledge about root canal morphology which achieved by careful...

A major cause for endodontic failure is the inability to treat all anatomy. Studies report endodontic retreatments contain 42% missed canals. This case illustrates dentin preservation of a molar with an uninstrumented mesiobuccal-3 canal revealed post-GentleWave Procedure. Efficient cleaning and disinfection with maintained healing to 18 months is demonstrated.

Lack of knowledge or its poor application in clinicals can lead to a number accidental errors during the root canal therapy. The preventive measures and management these mishaps is must for the success of the endodontic therapy maintain natural integrity teeth. Thus, this paper we are going to discuss about different types procedural with their briefly. Keywords: Missed canals, Perforation, Em...

Objective: To determine whether the missing canals in endodontically treated single-rooted teeth with two-canals are present either buccal or lingual/palatal for Turkish subpopulation. Methods: High-quality cone-beam computed tomography scans of 1297 belonging to 782 adults over age 18 were obtained from archive a dental clinic. Within this dataset, 129 had undergone endodontic treatment and po...

introduction: the purpose of this study was to evaluate the number of distal roots and canals in mandibular first molars and their internal anatomy radiographically within iranian population. materials and methods: a total of 310 distal roots of mandibular first molars were incorporated in this study and evaluated in terms of number of roots and number and types of canals. root canal systems we...

MR performed with thin, contiguous sections has replaced CT for the study of the cerebellopontine angle and for diagnosis of acoustic neuromas. In our experience large acoustic neuromas are well seen in all pulse sequences. Tumors with small extracanalicular components are seen in the T1- and spin-density-weighted sequences whereas purely intracanalicular lesions are often visualized only in th...

Background: The education of undergraduate dental students in endodontics should be of high standards to enable newly graduate dentists to deal with the most commonly encountered endodontic clinical problems. Hence, the objective of this study is to evaluate radiographically the quality of root canal fillings done by undergraduate students in the College of Dentistry, King Khalid University, Sa...
