The purpose of this study was to examine the apical foramen of root apices extracted during apicotomies. A total of 25 teeth extracted from 25 patients admitted to the Department of Conservative Dentistry at Tokyo Dental College's Chiba Hospital were used for the study. All patients were between 22 to 56 years of age at the time of the study, and each of the 25 cases was determined clinically o...

statement of the problem: endodontic surgery if required is considered as an additive therapy after classic endodontic treatments. the most prevalent type of endodontic surgeries are apicoectomy and corrective surgeries. type of material applied in apicoectomies is of high importance. root end filling material should not only be biocompatible but also provide appropriate seal. considering these...

The roots of two incisors were treated by apicoectomy and a retrograde dentin-bonded composite filling. Periapical healing was observed a few months later by radiography. Later, due to root fracture and marginal bone resorption, the apical parts were removed including adjacent periapical bone. A histological and scanning electron microscopic examination of the tissue showed reformation of perio...

Introduction: success rates of apical surgery are variable, and there several causes failure related in the literature. Among them, permeability exposed dentin at surface after apicoectomies has been receiving much attention, Nd: YAG laser irradiation can decrease this permeability, but its effects on root not completely known. Objectives: evaluate morphological alterations surface, specially s...

Calcium phosphate has been widely used in bone regeneration applications. Originalkalsium fosfat merupakan biomaterial yang sering diaplikasikan ke dalam defek tulang dengan tidak memberikan efek toksik pada jaringan sehat.The most commonly calcium are hydroxyapatite and β-tricalcium (β-TCP). β-TCP is one of the bioceramic materials that chemical structure β-Ca3(PO4)2. The use medicine dentistr...

Introduction. Root perforations may occur following endodontic treatment, thus compromising the root integrity and treatment outcome. Case Report. A patient presented with a canal perforation an earlier of upper left lateral incisor (tooth 22). Once diagnosis symptomatic periapical periodontitis was established, decision made to retreat using mineral trioxide aggregate perform apicoectomy. The ...

Conventional surgical approach for cyst enucleation is removal of buccal compact bone plate, which often results in remarkable bone loss and subsequent mucosal recession. This report presents one case of residual mandibular cyst enucleation and one case of apicoectomized mandibular molar, both treated with the bony lid approach. A window of buccal compact bone was precisely created using an ele...
