The aim of this study is to demonstrate the ability of our ultrasonic endodontic dental device with rotary nickel-titanium alloy instruments for the root canal treatment. This study is aimed at investigating the cleaning and shaping efficacy with “Ultrasonic device for endodontic treatment of dental’s canals. The purpose of root canal treatment is to get rid of the damaged pulp and the bacteria...

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to identify a role for endodontic intervention in enhancing the regenerative potential of the periodontal ligament when combined with periodontal treatment in seriously involved teeth with a secondary endodontic component. METHODS Patients who exhibited radiolucency extending to the periapical region, abnormal electric pulp testing values, and deep probing de...

Preparation of root canal systems includes both enlargement and shaping of the complex endodontic space together with its disinfection. A variety of instruments and techniques have been developed and described for this critical stage of root canal treatment. Although many reports on root canal preparation can be found in the literature, definitive scientific evidence on the quality and clinical...

A case is presented in which a nasopalatine duct cyst was misdiagnosed. Its subsequent mismanagement was further compounded with improper endodontic therapy. It was finally managed by corrective endodontic and surgical therapy.

Background : Dental caries occurs as a result of demineralization the hard tissues teeth followed by destruction organic matter, resulting in bacterial invasion and death pulp which can lead to necrosis. One treatments for necrosis is endodontic treatment. Endodontic treatment includes root canal preparation techniques, irrigation materials, dressing also obturation techniques. In experience fl...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of this study was to measure and compare the root canal cleanliness and smear layer removal effectiveness of Aquatine Endodontic Cleanser (Aquatine EC) when used as an endodontic irrigating solution in comparison with 6% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). MATERIAL AND METHODS Forty-five human teeth were randomly allocated to five treatment groups; the pulp chamber was accesse...

Anatomical abnormalities of the root canal system are frequently seen in specialist endodontic practice, and represent a challenge to be faced with skill and thoroughness, beginning with an accurate diagnostic phase and devising the most appropriate treatment plan. Fortunately, much progress has been made in endodontic research thanks to technological advances and the evolution of higher perfor...

Tradit ional ly cult ivat ion, microscopic and immunological based techniques were only the means by which endodontic microbiota were studied. Because of their several limitations in microbiological diagnosis, newer molecular genetic methods were introduced. Polymerase chain reaction -PCR is a widely spread advance in clinical diagnostic technology and known to be cornerstone in genome sequenci...

Enterococcus faecalis is a microorganism commonly detected in asymptomatic, persistent endodontic infections. Its prevalence in such infections ranges from 24% to 77%. This finding can be explained by various survival and virulence factors possessed by E. faecalis, including its ability to compete with other microorganisms, invade dentinal tubules, and resist nutritional deprivation. Use of goo...
