Vital pulp therapy (VPT) of permanent mature teeth is continuously ascertaining to be a more reliable endodontic treatment. The purpose of this case report was to describe successful VPT of a mature mandibular left first molar with concurrent hyperplastic pulpitis, internal root resorption and periradicular periodontitis in a 35-year-old male patient. After complete caries removal and access ca...

abstract : inflammatory external root resorption (ierr) is a pathological phenomenon of microbial origin. this stu dy reports a case of external apical inflammatory root resorption of maxillary incisors associated with periradicular lesions in a 22 year old female, which was successfully treated by one-visit root canal therapy (rct). radiographic investigation revealed periapical radiolucencies...

The vast majority of diseases of the dental pulp & the periradicular tissues are associated with micro-organisms. A thorough understanding of these organisms & their relationship to clinical symptoms is necessary to formulate a sound approach to deciduous root canal therapy. This review article intends to highlight the microflora of infected deciduous root canal.

INTRODUCTION Adequate bleeding control is essential for the success of periapical surgery. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of 2 hemostatic agents on the outcome of periapical surgery and their relationship with patient and teeth parameters. METHODS A prospective study was designed with 2 randomized parallel groups, depending on the hemostatic agent used: gauze impregnated in...

accumulation of soft tissue or dentinal remnants in the apical region is a common event that can cause blockage of root canals. this event can be avoided if apical patency is performed during the root canal shaping procedures. however, there is no consensus on the role of apical patency in relation to the success of endodontic treatment of necrotic teeth with apical periodontitis. therefore, th...

Modern endodontic surgery involves both root-end preparation and proper sealing of all apical portals of exit. Both components are requirements for mechanical and biological success, but the management of soft tissues becomes increasingly important for an esthetically successful treatment. A healthy appearance of soft tissues plays an important role in the esthetic outcome of periradicular surg...
