Damage of pulp tissue usually begins in the coronal pulp. Its mistreatment or its lack of on time detection determines the progressive inclusion of the whole endodontic space in its evolution, opening the way of its expansion in the surrounding tissues of the tooth, and on the marginal apical tissue. Aim. The goal of this study was to highlight that the primary endodontic lesions with secondary...

Successful management of pain emergencies is a strong component of clinical excellence. Although clinical studies indicate that comparatively few patients experience pain after endodontic procedures, it has been estimated that about 20% of patients experience moderate-to-severe pain after treatment (1, 2, 3). An additional small fraction of patients (about 1– 2%) will experience a sudden ‘flare...

INTRODUCTION To obtain essential information in clinical endodontics, cone-beam computed tomographic (CBCT) imaging can be used in all phases of treatment including diagnosis, treatment planning, during the treatment phase, and through post-treatment assessment and follow-up. The purpose of this article was to review the use of CBCT imaging in the diagnosis, treatment planning, and assessing th...

Aim: This clinical case report demonstrates the successful management of a complex endodontic-periodontal iatrogenic lesion following a critical evaluation and decision-making process with interdisciplinary treatment strategies. Background: Defective dental restorations can affect the periodontal and endodontic health of the teeth. Case report: An endodontic-periodontal lesion that resulted fro...

There are numerous examples reported in the literature that cite and document many disabling complications to the alveolar bone, neurovascular anatomy and maxillary sinus following overextension of root canal filling materials. Neural complications as a consequences of endodontic obturation as well as other server outcomes to overfill are a serious problem. These injuries require a thoughful st...

Background: During root canal treatment procedures, unexpected accidents may be confronted affecting long-term prognosis just as in any other dental treatment. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the knowledge of dental students of accidents and errors during endodontic treatment in Medical University of Babol. Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 52 senior dental student...

Central Giant Cell Granulomas (CGCGs) may manifest as radiolucencies anywhere in the mandible or maxilla. In rare cases, it can appear as a localized periradicular area and mimic an endodontic lesion. This case report presents an uncommon location of CGCG which was not accurately diagnosed nor timely treated. Periodic follow ups of periapical radiolucencies after RCT are necessary. Dentists sho...

Objective: The objective of this study is to evaluate longitudinal studies effectiveness of treatment of periodontal-endodontic lesions and the influence of periodontal or endodontic procedures through a

Endodontic therapy has a high survival rate, but in cases of post-treatment pathosis, retreatment may be required. This case report presents a similar case of endodontic failure which resulted in a coexistent periradicular-periodontal lesion. The case was managed by nonsurgical endodontic retreatment followed by photodynamic therapy in the periodontal region. Satisfactory results were obtained ...

The odontogenic cutaneous sinus tract on the facial and cervical skin is known to occur as a result of pulp necrosis and chronic periapical periodontitis. Sinus tracts of endodontic origin usually respond well to endodontic therapy. The present case report discusses diagnosis and successful management of an extraoral cutaneous sinus tract of odontogenic origin in relation to a mandibular rigth ...
